You play a chicken, trying to hatch an egg!

This is my first ever submission to Ludum Dare and it didn't go quite to plan. But hey, it was a fun learning experience. The game is good for killing a few minutes in it's current state but I had plans for more levels and enemies that didn't come to fruition.

Love the concept, the art, and the sound!! It was hard though, especially as time goes on where you get much less time to sit on the egg and need to spend more time pecking the predators.

Yeah, I made a few last-minute difficulty tweaks before submitting because it felt a bit too easy, might've over done it a bit :sweat_smile:. Thanks for the feedback and I hope you still had fun!

A really nice and charming game. Love the animations and the artstyle. However it is quite hard to sit on the egg as the Raccons? kept on coming. Other than that is quite a fun and humorous game. Great work.

Really well done, the graphics are superb especially the raccoon animations. Worked really well and had a great time, I spent ages defending that egg and pecking those pesky raccoons. Great work!!!

Good job, I got how the chickens have difficulty to care of your eggs haha.

And I liked, this game was made in Godot I guess.

I really love everything in this game, but the sound, aaahhh the sound is sublime! Good job!

It's a simple idea and really well put together, not to mention surprisingly difficult! Wonderful art and sound in particular. The extra levels you planned would have been great but I love it as is. :)

GREAT GAME! I had lots of fun playing it. The voice of the chicken is so funny hahahah. Good graphic and gameplay. I need to really concentrate on the controlling to win the game. Nice work!
