Fun to play with, not to eat. This was fun and a great concept. For your next iteration, I think making each level beatable with all types of chicken would be cool. That can be your three star system.
Glad I played!

A simple concept but with potential. The baby chick felt a little overpowered, you could beat almos every level with him, but i get the idea. And you did everything in very little time so good job!

Cat CloonesPretty fun and nice concept! Could have been pushed a little further in terms of level design, and the movement feels a bit slow, but I had fun anyway!

Shape Fu MiI quite like the concept! I feel like the egg was very underpowered, but I guess it's an egg. Good job on the animations. The music got a little repetitive after a bit, maybe adding some variation might help.

A Groundhog's DayYeah, but the thing is, at least with the current level design, that hurts more than it helps. Especially since inertia is so high and slowing down takes so long. I pretty much always died immediately as an egg. I think having a high-speed character feel equally strong as the other two could work, but would probably need some more deliberate level design.
Cute and cool little idea! The angry farmer gave a good laugh! Cool that the "chickens" had a different little ability and feel to them.

SysEval: Iteration ProtocolVery cute game, switching between the 3 characters can open up different routes on the same level which is pretty satisfying.

Hollow PlanetI didn't know chickens could shoot explosive eggs to defeat their foes. Thank god I'm not a farmer. Cool game!

the halting goblinAlright. I really like the idea. I can see where you could go with this, and it seems like it's actually possible to expand on without making you lose your mind, unlike some of my impossible-to-code mechanics.

Celestial Phasesbut who came first though, the chicken? or THE EGG? I guess I enjoyed it anyways

Loop of AYO👋 Hey!
I just played your game and I really enjoyed it — it was fun and engaging, and graphics"funny" and music are very cool! 🎮
I wanted to share my game with you too — it's called Jumpimal 🐾
It's a cute and fast-paced jumping game I made during GMTK Jam.
I’d love to hear your thoughts if you get a chance to try it!
I’d also be happy to give more feedback on your game if you’d like.
