Generation Chicken by SakuH

[raw]
made by SakuH for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

These chickens are stuck in a generational loop. Help them escape!

Each generational loop (level) you play adds a new fun mechanic to the game while simultaneously reinventing the previously familiar map. Do you have what it takes to beat all 4 levels?

FEATURES: - 5 unique sound tracks to uncover - 4 complex variations of the same map - 3 new mechanics to unlock - manually inserted pixels to create sprites and artwork

CONTROLS: - A, D (or left and right arrow keys) to Move! - Space to jump - Left Shift to Dash

The graphics and music are great. It was hard for me to see how the loop entered. But in the end it is very good. When it has died it has been unexpected, but so many red particles are very good!

Great job! Very good game!

I love have once you beat the game you restart with a new ability and the music gets a new interment.

The art style was very nice. What I liked most about the game is the chicken's jumping animation. It's just... really lovely, I don't know why.

I love the pixel art! It started becoming a bit hard on the third level, more checkpoints would have been appreciated.
Very well done. The controls feel really responsive.

Easy to pick up and hard to master, that chicken gave me a good time, I would gladly play a full fledged version of this, reminded me of super meat boy, mostly because of the blood I think. Great game.

The chicken "fly" animations are so good, makes me want to keep smashing the spacebar! :hatching_chick: Well done!

Sweet little platformer. I thought the flap animation was great and was highly amused by the chicken pieces left after I landed on the spikes.

That death animation is epic, love it. The wall jumping felt a little funny almost like it wasn't detecting being on the ground or against a wall.

Great job!
