Well, I tried to implement it through eggs as a currency. Like the more you have the better, But you need to spend them to grow your army or upgrades to increase power. So it's like a health of you team. You can make more solders or you can upgrade their strength. But I didn't fit in time so I didn't implement it like I wanted. And for now eggs is just spawn points for your army.

Was really nice and refreshing to have this type of genre - haven't seen it around personally as much these days. Love the style and gameplay. Cover art is very epic xD. Was very immersed in it while playing.

Thank you! =)

Cool entry! it gave me Chicken + Fat Princess vibes which was neat, as you mentioned its very early prototype, but I would love to see a faster attack and more impact on hitting other chickens.

The art and concept are really cute tho, and its awesome what you got done in such a short time. Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Yeah attack is only functional but not satisfying. I will try to change it.

The art was great, i liked the mechanics and the music was on point. I think polishing up a few areas  would make this game even greater. For instance, maybe a moving the attack button to the other side of the keyboard and making the space for multiple chickens to cross into the battle arena. I totally see this being an online multiplayer game.

Developer

Thanks for feedback! 

Yeah, I am going to work on this game farther and making something real out of it. Not sure about battle arena but I gonna add some commands to control other chickens like go there or patrol this place.

Multiplayer is something I want too, It's perfectly fits the game. But it will be much later if the game will become something people are interested in.

I know you don't know me from the next person but let me know if I can help. This would be a fun project to help out on.

I prefer to develop solo but I will ask you for help if I decide to create a team for this project. Thank you)

This game should have a FUNNY category. This game is hilarious! Stealing eggs, killing other chickens and have your army behind you feels good!

Developer(+1)

Thank you =)
I added a Funny tag to it now.

I admire the use of an RTS-like mechanic that makes this stand out amongst the jam submissions. The lovely and simplistic polgyon models allowed me to run the game at the best quality without slowing my poor laptop. I saw a bug or feature(?) where the opposing chickens would stay inside the camps once eggs run out, thereby making it so when they get egg'd it automatically allows them to respawn in inside the camp.


Other than that, how could you not enjoy this game? I still cannot get over the fact this is an RTS game with chickens HOLDING spears. Using chickens to exploit my innate fascination of the flightless avians is a crime in itself, but my gosh I just wanna grab those chickens from the screen and gleefully hold those tiny avians. My bad I rambled on about chickens.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you! I am glad you like chickens and game style) 
Yeah if there are no eggs left - chicken couriers will just stand still because this is their meaning of life) 

I didn't thought that whey will be respawn infinitely while dying inside the camp XD This is not a bug but it wasn't intended like a feature.

Also you can pick up an egg and bring it to the enemy camp and enemy will spawn from it. 

Later I will make chicken unique identity (including player) so when you die you will became an egg and who ever takes you and bring to their camp - you may respawn for a different team ) And many more features. I think it can be extended into a fun game)

Thank you again for support)

>You can be egg'd and you can be taken to different enemy camps even,
My reaction is that of cr1tikal cheering "WOO YEAH," and I also thought if I could be egg'd during the game, (which unfortunately you can't yet) but i'm delighted to hear that this is actually a planned feature in the game. I will watch the development of this game with great interests. ^^

What a great action filled battle with a deep thought provoking conflict !

jokes aside i had fun playing the game but i soon realized that i can just go for the kills and win in no times so maybe work more on that.

bonus points for having chickens.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback! Yes I barely made it in time and there is still a lot of work. Game not balanced at all and a lot of features that intended to be there are absent. I will recover energy after the jam and then continue working on this project to make it a real game)
