Now that's my kind of harvesting. 350 hours in Farming Simulator prepared me for this! Great take on the theme. Took me a little bit to understand how to play. Harvesting (of normal crops) didn't work for me, or I am perhaps doing something wrong. How was Godot 4 treating you, by the way? I wanted to check 4, but I went with 3.5, for extra safety. :)

@jonqs nice entry! Zombie chicken is really creappy :smile: I was planning to do similiar stuff but in 2d an dwithout zombies. :smiley:

@dzejpi Thanks ! I wanted to have the ability to harvest crop but sadly didn't had time. Godot 4 works suprisingly well. Only issues are : I have a lag at launch on web that i can't understand and i had to remove billboard effect on the crops due to an error with WebGL and geometry shader. The improvement on GDScript is huge with 4 so i recommand to try it.

Hah, I actually got creeped out first time I played and I was driving around the cornfield and it suddenly got dark and suddenly you start hearing chicken sounds. Cool take on the theme, well done!

Great work, a bit of music or a countdown between day night cycles and maybe a larger arena with a few bails of hay for the zombie chickens to hide behind.

Maybe more green in the zombie chickens.

Really fun! A day-cycle timer would be good.

@luizgt Thanks ! There is one right to the wheel but it's not really visible

One thing I would wish to add here is juicy meat splash sound when hitting a chicken. Otherwise great job!

Noice! Many games this Year made me feel nostalgic, this is one of them!

Haha, this was hilarious! Spectacularly silly :smile: The controls felt a bit stiff when turning but I guess that probably what it's like driving one of those things :shrug:

I'm a sucker for pixelated 3D visuals so I found the art in the game pretty darn charming (I especially enjoyed the feathers on running over the chickens.) I had a bit of a hard time reading the text on the upgrade screen and I did notice the lag you mentioned on launch. Really enjoyed it overall!

Nice Harvest! give more instructions on the play area its my opinion

Very limited, but still fun prototype :) I wish there'd be more meat to it, and there definitely was some lag when launching, but otherwise interesting and fun!

I saw your post on the forum ! The game went so well
I had some stuggle to turn to catch the chickens lmao

Driving and splashing zombie chickens remind me of one scene in The Return of the King when mumakils are crushing riders of Rohan. With your game I feel like being a mumakil, and it feels goood !

Made it to wave 7, had a blast. Was satisfying running over a whole crowd of chickens and hearing the constant bawkbawkbawkbawk lol

Felt like the difficulty ramped up super fast near the end and it was hard to keep up but stuff like that can be fixed with balancing.

Overall was a neat concept, I could see adding more defensive and base stuff alongside incorporating the farming side like you mentioned in another comment and it being a fun roguelike/lite game

I like what you've made so far, the enemy model is great and there is alot to build on. I would like more juice when killing the ducks. After wave 3, it got a bit too hard to manage, the angle of the tractor made it also hard to kill ducks as they were right up to the barn and the health drops very quickly. Also wish there some kind of acitivity to do during the day, perhaps manually rebuilding the fort and creating barriers. Great potential and great aesthetic.


I had this error on firefox, chrome works fine.

Error
The following features required to run Godot projects on the Web are missing:
Cross Origin Isolation - Check web server configuration (send correct headers)
SharedArrayBuffer - Check web server configuration (send correct headers)

@beats Yes due to time i could't add much to do during day, that would have been nice. Thanks for notifying the error, Godot new web export need some header and i had to enable a specific option on itch. I did not test on Firefox, i may add a "Use Chrome if not working" on the itch page. Thanks !

Fun little wave game. Could do with some mroe variation and content, but overall well executed

I was kinda wandering around confused at the start of the game so the chicken attack started when I was in the middle of the wheat field. All the clucking around the tractor without seeing any chickens made it just a bit scarier at that moment XD

When I started the game I had no idea what to do and then I saw the wheat and assumed I had to harvest it. After that didn't work I came back to this page to see if there were any more instructions and realised I was supposed to be killing chickens. It took me an embarrassingly long time to find the barn again because I was lost in the wheat field. I thought this game nailed the mood category with it's sound effects and visuals. The shop was also really well done and the day and night cycle gave the player a chance to spend some time in the shop.
Unfortunately I felt like the gameplay seemed like an afterthought. You made a very nice farm scene and the game was pretty polished but all I could find to do was drive in circles to kill the chickens. I think if you spent some more time on this project then you could make something very impressive because a lot of the individual elements are really cool. If I were to make one small change that I think would make the biggest difference, I would change the perspective of the game so that you're watching the farm from above. I think that would make it easier to control the harvester but also easier to see where the chickens are.

This is a really cool looking game with a really fun idea

I fell of the map! :laughing:
But really nice game, congrats!

What a great entry! This was hilarious and honestly a bit creepy that I had so much fun committing roadkill. The tractor graphics are super well done. Nice work!

Cool graphics. I love that retro 3d look. The game balancing felt a little off. There was zero risk of the waves getting close to the barn, and I'm betting that if I had played long enough, there would have hit a point when I would have gotten absolutely swarmed and not been able to do anything about it. Unfortunately before that happened, I found a gap in your collision mesh to the left of the barn entrance and fell through the world. So I guess the chickens won in the end! Lol. Great compo entry!

Very funny game! Would have loved some more upgrades and maybe kind of helpers on my side to like maybe mini harvester randomly driving around because it got pretty overwhelming at some point

Nice idea. It would have been great if you found more time for some ambient sound or music, but overall enjoyable game. the damage those chickens deal is enormous though and I glitched inside the barn at one point when the door closed

Quite fun game. Some feedback for crushing the chickens would add a lot to it as would some background music. Maybe some tasks during the day would keep the player busy instead of just driving around. Overall good job

Interesting concept. I had troubles getting used to the controls, but looking at some of the nostalgic comments above they may be a bit of a genre convention. The visuals were great and definitely had a retro 3D vibe to them.

Great submission!

Funny game. Would be great if chickens had a ragdoll and would fly when hit or some juicy kills haha

@sipfindel Haha i kind of knew for the possibilty to be locked inside barn :see_no_evil:

@spacecadet Yes the day task was definitly the thing i wanted to add the most, but time ...

@ffrusik Good idea for physics, that would be fun definitly.

Thanks for the feedbacks everyone :)

Amazing work XD Chickens looked really funny, i didn't realise until i finished that i was so invested into the game.

Haha this game is really funny, the movement of the truck is really satisfying good job!

Nice job! I liked the use of the secondary camera :smiley:

impressive graphic style for a compo entry. Had fun but i clipped though the floor while exploring the area. Good job! ^^

I tried the WebGL version, but it would never fully load for me (MacBook Pro 2021 running Chrome). It might be an issue with the settings. But the game looks interesting!

I loved this one. I laughed so hart :-)

Very satisfying! I like the graphics and overall atmosphere. The upgrade system is a great mechanic - very nice!

Really satisfying running over the chickens. Pretty fun art style, too. When purchasing, the text for dead chicken currency was a bit small, so it took an extra couple seconds to find it the first time. Other than that, fun little game! Great work.

I just love the graphics in this game! The upgrade system is simple and effective and the chickens are very polite, walking the lane like gents!
Really enjoyed the game.

I tried to harvest the crops but noticed it is not possible :( Gameplay is fun tho! Also loved the visual style and upgrade menu. Good job mate!

This was a fun one. The graphics were great, and it was very satisfying to attack the zombie chickens. I especially enjoyed the night/day atmosphere you created. The upgrade system was interesting although it seemed pretty easy to get overpowered. Having something to do during the day would help fill out the gameplay. The chicken noises got a little annoying after a while, maybe adding some variety in that noise would help.

The game wouldn't run in Firefox, but I was able to play in Chrome.

Fun concept with day/night cycle with different missions, very ambitious which I always admire, great job getting this far and so many systems ready in time. A couple more days and this would be a lot of fun! Impressive :)

I liked how it looks, and camera rotation, but controlling is kinda hard. Great project!

Really like the artstyle! Simple gameplay but it's good. It becomes too hard too fast I think. But it is a solid entry anyway.

Interesting take on the theme haha, but it's fun to roll around! It was a big laggy for me but otherwise it well done!
