Haha, I am so bad at this game. Tried it half a dozen times now and I can't get myself past stage 2....maybe I made it to stage 3 once.  But this is pretty fun though regardless. Keeping yourself to a month to make the game really seems like it allowed you hone in and focus on creating a really tight gameplay mechanic. 

There's a good amount of strategy in such a simple mechanic, which adds to the complexity just in the one-hit, board destroying attack alone. Then add in the power-ups and that you can only one that you most recently picked up. Yeah,  it's good. Really made for some thinking on what I should do next. I also like the art you put together for it.

Great work with this!

Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it

I showed it to my wife because she's really into chickens. She ended up getting farther than me. Up to stage 4 I think. Was 12th or 13th on the leaderboards at one point. I've been thinking of giving it another go. If I have any more feedback to share, then I'll be sure to share it with you.

Okay, played a bit more today. Got up to stage 4 and ranked 22nd on the board. I feel that's fairly respectable. Not much to add though. I can't really find any criticisms with it other than maybe better player onboarding than the little slides we get from the question mark. But for a game of this scope I think that is forgivable. Once again, awesome stuff, man. Looking forward to seeing what you cook up next month!

Thank you! I really appreciate the comments :) Yeah I agree the tutorial def could have been done better. I'm happy you've been enjoying the game

Hi!

My name is Alex. I'm sound director/music producer. 

If you need help with music, I would love to offer my skills as a composer! I work with numerous styles/genres, and I can produce a finished product only using my collection of virtual instruments. I made a demo playlist of my compositions to give a feel of my previous works.

This is really cool, I came from the devlog and I think that the new series is an awesome idea. Gameplay-wise, it is engaging and addictive while not being annoyingly difficult, and the art compliments the arcady-style well

Came here from the devlog, love the game! The gameplay is unique and does a great job of keeping you engaged without demotivating you. I also really love the visuals and audio! It does seem to lag quite a bit in the browser though. Is there a fix you know of, or is there a chance you could make a downloadable build? Thanks!
