That's certainly an unusual source of inspiration!\n\nUnfortunately, I think that mechanic was poorly communicated. I don't see why a chicken should be able to go faster by repeatedly jumping, and it doesn't feel right for a chicken walking on grass to have such a slippery slowdown when releasing the arrow key. Even in your description you are hiding the explanation of your core mechanic behind a cryptic \"I CANT FIGURE IT OUT!!! Watch this\" link, which makes it seem like the player is expected to figure it out on their own even though the game does nothing to lead the player towards that discovery. Speaking of not guiding the player very well: I still don't know if I'm supposed to throw my chicks at the yellow arrow or if I'm supposed to gather them all around me and walk past the cliff myself. I also have no idea what the yellow egg does. I see that there is a game somewhere in there, but I can't play it, because the rules are too unclear and the controls are so frustrating that I don't really want to spend the time to figure it out.\n\n(I didn't rate the game because I did not feel like I saw all there was to see)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"exezin","author_uid":"1004287","time":"2017-12-26T00:03:35Z","epoch":1514246615,"modified":1514246615,"text":"@gelisam I think you expect far to much from a custom engine & 48 hours of work :p","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld40\/55371-e2a44b01b700b0e58f21eb5fe576a99c.png"],"links":[{"url":"","text":"HTML5 (web)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"46984","g_author":"1004287","g_event":"LD40","g_eventkey":"70","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"244946","g_title":"CHICKEN COUP","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"562","g_commentcount":"95","g_site2_node_id":"55371","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"55371","n_urlkey":"244946","n_parent":"49883","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/chicken-coup","n_slug":"chicken-coup","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"4287","n_created":"1511936128","n_modified":"1515111231","n_version":"212678","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":55371,"parent":49883,"superparent":9,"author":4287,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2017-12-05T00:08:37Z","created":"2017-11-29T06:15:28Z","modified":"2018-01-05T00:13:51Z","version":212678,"slug":"chicken-coup","name":"CHICKEN COUP","body":".","meta":{"author":[4287],"cover":"\/\/\/content\/fb0\/1\/z\/c3b2.png","link-01":"","link-01-tag":"42336","link-01-name":"HTM5\/WebGL2","link-02":"","allow-anonymous-comments":"1"},"path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/chicken-coup","parents":[1,5,9,49883],"love":0,"notes":95,"notes-timestamp":"2017-12-26T00:03:35Z","grade":{"grade-01":158,"grade-02":159,"grade-03":157,"grade-04":156,"grade-05":161,"grade-06":149,"grade-07":153,"grade-08":149},"magic":{"cool":71.501748230375,"feedback":73,"given":51.125,"grade":155.25,"grade-01-average":3.462,"grade-01-result":562,"grade-02-average":3.162,"grade-02-result":706,"grade-03-average":3.571,"grade-03-result":253,"grade-04-average":3.601,"grade-04-result":422,"grade-05-average":3.811,"grade-05-result":372,"grade-06-average":2.823,"grade-06-result":580,"grade-07-average":3.417,"grade-07-result":330,"grade-08-average":3.241,"grade-08-result":599,"smart":-25.714460977826}},"text":".","title":"CHICKEN COUP"}
