The new and improved, full soundie Chicken VS. Road Version 0.1 is now available at FileFront! Even if you've played it already, please grab it again and let me know what you think of the new snazziness (or lack thereof)

Peder, if you'd be so kind to replace my old one, I'd truly appreciate it. Thanks!

I just downloaded the game, and I'm already stuck!:P I really hope it's not a bug though.

Spoiler

I tried to use the cup with the straw on the needle, but it doesn't work? Is there some way to isolate the straw from the cup?

Oh, yeah! Sorry...the Wing icon in the inventory screen is for separating or manipulating items...dang...guess I forgot to write a text-manual thing too, didn't I?

Come to think of it, I think you only even need to do that once in the whole game. Hope this helps!

.Sklate. · Thu 20/04/2006 07:00:45

Hm, apparently the version I have doesn't have a wing icon in the inventory screen.

--- *edit* ---

After looking into the inventory screen, I realised that the wing icon is there, but is very faint due it being the same colour of the inventory screen.

I suggest trying either making a contrast between the wing colour and inventory screen colour or making a darker outline of it

--- *double edit * ---
Played through the game, and would like to say just how delightful the game is! The puns, jokes and sense of humour really makes this game a unique piece of work. The puzzles are also unique, and I really like the way you've given the chicken a form of identity ... if you know what i mean

I sincerely like the hint system, great effort was put into it!

Looking forward to henchman!

Played the updated version, and I think it's MUCH better now!
The sounds and music are well matched to the various actions and scenes now and add more overall enjoyment to the game. The walk speed seems better now too. Good stuff.

Thanks, guys! Heh...I stayed up waaay too late (and through a sick tummy! I'm a trooper.) 8) getting it done, grabbed 5 hrs. sleep and off to work.

Yeah, I totally know what you mean about the lightness of some of my outlines. I seem to have a problem with that (I've seen my work on other peoples' comps, and it comes out waaay lighter than on my screen, even though I've got Brightness cranked up to full. Weird.)

You guys have any idea how hard it is to find a "blowgun" wav file?

.Sklate. · Fri 21/04/2006 06:48:53

Heh, I have no idea how you managed to find the blowgun.wav, but I must also add that I feel that the music and sound fx in the game perfectly match not only the game objects, but the overall feel of the game.

Great job once again

Awesome game!

Is it just me, or is this the exact same background music as grundislav used in his latest game? Is there some adventure game music repository out there that everybody gets their music from?

Play_Pretend · Fri 21/04/2006 11:02:45

Thanks again, everybody! And nah, it's just that in lieu of having someone else compose original pieces, I used classic songs, same as old cartoons used to. Peter Gunn, Maple Leaf Rag, Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head, the (cough) Stripper Song, Eye of the Tiger, Clare de Lune and the theme from 2001. A real time saver, that.

To the creator of this game, "Hurrah!!!" ou have good attention to detail and some cleverness to the game that made it fun to pay. Keep up the good work. You could be the next best game developer!!!

Fyntax · Thu 07/12/2006 22:15:50

Awesome game!

Nethros · Sat 16/12/2006 14:43:45

It was fun, but when I clicked the help thing there were 2 other options to pick, that I never saw in the game.

MashPotato · Sat 16/12/2006 18:36:56

Read the hints for those two topics Nethros

Play_Pretend · Sun 17/12/2006 08:24:37

*lol* Wow...I can't believe this thread got pulled up after 8 months.

Thanks for the compliments, and heh...I wasn't even going to reply, but I thought it was so funny that someone was too honest to read ahead in the hints. I can't imagine playing most games without cheating.

Sakkeus · Sun 17/12/2006 12:15:20

I really don't like "strange games" but gave this one a try.
I loved it! Sunglassed chicken, wow. The puzzles were very nice too, though they only made sense afterwards.
Looking forward to more of your games.

TheCheese33 · Sat 27/01/2007 21:45:46

Awesome game. I especially loved the off-beat puzzles.

Dufferama · Mon 29/01/2007 03:28:36

This was one of the first games I played when I discovered this site... and I loved it. Very professional, funny, and challenging.
