What an atmosphere! The boss couldn't resist my big golden gun :)
It took me a while to realise that one egg was worth one dollar. And overall, you spend a lot of time at the beginning just waiting for your chickens to lay eggs (and it's looong!).
Anyway, I admit I only bought the gun, then skipped each day to face the foxes and the final boss because I didn't have the patience to wait to buy the other upgrades.
But if this could be improved in some way, the game would certainly be more enjoyable. Otherwise, the music is nice, our chicken looks great, and the foxes are very funny too.
In short, well done for this game and keep up the good work.
Thanks for the review! Regarding the upgrades, you could have gotten the energy drink first and then the rest, since the energy drink speeds up chicken production and makes it easier to get the other upgrades. But thanks for playing! =D
I'm loving the exaggerated proportions of the chicken and those pesky foxes tippy tapping towards the hen house at night. Great day/night gameplay loop!
thanks for playing
Good job! Very good art and music and the system of upgrades!
If you can please rate my game and post a comment
thanks!
simple idea, easy to get, defend>earn>upgrade always work out
nice visuals as well, i could imagine insider jokes on some of the sprites
i felt there wasn't too much of a challenge on the foxe's raids. stand, hold shoot and waiting resumes most of it
and i see the theme on the seeling/laying eggs mechanic, but overall its more visual/implied than meaningful. (I.E, chicken/barn/foxes could be zombies, grocery store, humans, aliens and so on)
also ran into 2 glitches:
the store inside the barn wouldn't close after being opened
i could stay close to the store and barn's door, if interacted (with both in reach) the game would freeze
Thanks for the review! I didn't notice those bugs, or maybe I just didn't have time to fix them, but thanks for playing! =D
hi nice game its nice only the movement is slow in my opinion but nice to see someone use the similar way of animating with rotating as me
thanks for the review
Fun game! Great job with the graphics too!
thanks
Nice visual, the huge hand with gun has a sort of 3d feeling like sticking out of the game.
I bought all the update, but didn't get to an end, not sure if there is or you need to pass a certain amount of days or kills.
At the beginning I got confused about how to sell the eggs, I couldn't find any option and only after a while I realised that 1 egg could perhaps be $1 and was enough to collect at least 20 of them to get an upgrade.
Perhaps you can add this info in the instructions.
I found a bit strange that I could stay for long time in the barn collecting eggs and nothing happens while days passed through. Was it intended, a bug, or a glitch? If not intended, maybe you can make something happen if you don't go out for the night, maybe stating it clear when it's day and night when inside the barn.
Overall it's a nice little game to play that fits well the theme. Nicely done.
That was a bug that I couldn't finish in time, but I recommend you leave before 2:00 AM because then you'll be able to kill the foxes. But thanks for playing.
cool art style and interesting day/night mechanic! would be interesting to see more variations of ways to make money on the farm and then enemy types at night time. good stuff : )
thanks
Love the art and honestly, I see this style being a big hit on Newgrounds! I can see this project going further^^
thanks! i wanna test this later
Nice 100 killed fox from 100
yeaah
Awesome game! Super fun and great!
thanks
