HENRAGED by ohmmus

[raw]
made by ohmmus for LD 40 (COMPO)

The classic tale of fox vs chickens.

Fred the Fox (I'm so, so sorry for this name) is on a quest to steal as many chicken eggs as possible.

Help Fred (I really mean it, I'm sorry) grab eggs from nests! He keeps his stolen eggs in his red pouch, but the hens know this, so they come out of the coop faster when you have more eggs.

If a hen catches you, it's Dead for Fred (sorry)

Each level requires more eggs to be captured, and you are racing against the clock for some reason...

CONTROLS: Movement - Left and right arrow keys Jump - Up arrow key Put eggs into basket - (while standing over basket) down arrow key

Side note- this is my first time using Pico-8 for a project. I'm totally in love this cute little powerhouse.

Now go and steal some eggs! :egg:ss1.PNG

Feedback and bug reports appreciated. I'll post up an updated link if I end up making any major bug fixes.

Finally, for those downloading the source code and are confused about the .p8 extension, it's basically just a plain text file.

Enjoy! ss2.PNG

I really like the audio, and that the game's mechanics fit its own flavor. I think a more forgiving fail state, such as having multiple lives, would go a long way here. All in all, this makes me want to learn Pico-8.

This was more fun than it should have been. I got all the eggs. Good mood and funky music. Nice.
