Chicken Smash by assimby
Chicken Smash is a smash Bros like type of game, where you have to throw your eggs at your opponent to make him fall into the fog. There, lurks a fox that will not move away unless he eats one of the chicken. Sacrifices have to be made, and even though you and your partner are fellow chicken, only one can live. 😱
Sacrifice your eggs and your partner to stay alive !
Instructions : The goal of the game is to push away your opponent into the fog, and not let him come up before the fox eats him. 🔹Reload eggs by running around 🔹Maintaining the Shoot button will make your egg be faster and stronger 🔹Two types of eggs are available, Red eggs are fast and go almost in a straight line, while blue ones are shot in an arc and are slower, but are much stronger. 🔹Double jumping will shoot an egg downwards 🔹Turn away after running a couple meters, to activate a dodge that will protect you from bullets for 1sec.
(Controls and Instructions can also be found in the main menu of the game)

But look at the picture I feel exciting
But my characters didn't move even after 10 seconds. So sad, It looks interesting.
@pierkwadrat @mrjackhpil I'm sorry for this, it worked fine over here, with both my work and personal computers, I think it's probably coming from running the game at low FPS ? If it wasn't running at 60FPS, try lowering the quality settings after clicking the .exe This should fix the bug.
@wojciech-zyla Were you running the game at 60FPS ? if not, have you tried lowering the graphics ? Some parts of the game are framerate dependent I believe, this was not intended, but lowering the quality settings could help.
@morriss The game has been uploaded to Itch.io, so downloading should work :thinking:
Maybe try with another browser, and see if you can download other games on Itch.io
To all future playtesters, if you experience weird bugs, try lowering the quality settings until it plays at 60FPS.
Some features appear to be framerate-dependent, it was not intended, Sorry ! :wink:
Also 1 bug I encountered was that the player could just stick to the wall as long as the player is holding down the move key. That would take all the fun away if it were to be abused.
I absolutely love the transitions, could you elaborate on how that was done?
Great game guys!
As for the wall sticking, you're right, we've seen this happen a few times, but since it's not a competitive game in itself, and it's only local multiplayer, I guess it's not game breaking, if anything, it can be a fun joke :wink:
Transitions were made by animating UI images in Unity3D, which is the engine we used. It literally is just plain color images moving around the screen :laughing:
Thanks for playing !
@yoshim Thanks a lot ! :wink:
But if you ever find the opportunity to play with someone, definetely give it a shot, it's a lot of fun ! :wink:
I'm glad you still liked the game though, thanks ! :heart:
