Chick Magnet

Press W, A, S, D or arrow keys to move.

• Moving around by pressing and releasing the buttons repetitively to prevent singing.

• Moving around by holding down the keys or just staying still to sing.

• Singing attracts chicks.

• Stop singing and some of the chicks following you may begin to lose interest in you.

• If there are no eggs around, you have to wait for the chickens to lay some, so don’t attract their attention.

• Chickens only lay eggs in their nests.

• Touch an egg to stop it from hatching and bring it around

• If an egg touches a chick or a chicken it will stop following you and starts to hatch.

• Chickens lay eggs, each egg hatches into a chick, chicks don’t grow up though.

• A chicken may destroy her own egg if it follows you.

• When pecked by a chicken you might get thrown at a distance away.

• Get at least one egg to the lamp before the bar is all red. When it receives an egg the bar will be full again. Repeat.

• How many eggs can you manage to obtain before the game is over (which it will immediately restart)?

More and more chicks get hatched as you collect more and more eggs, so you will have more and more chicks following you around.

Try to collect as many eggs as you can while keeping the number of chicks following you around to a minimum.

Can’t export for Linux and HTML5 because I used the beta version of Godot 3. It says: “Export templates for this platform are missing/corrupted: Linux/X11”

Known issues:

• Game will crash when game is over if you killed too many chicks or collected too many eggs, which means if you play the game it will most likely crash. (something to do queue_free() to free the resources, bad code on my part, sorry!).
• Dead chicks are invisible but they might collide with live chicks (sorry).
• Resizing the window may hide the progress bar at the bottom (sorry).
• If you dig into the source code, you might find that I tried to make the game a rhythm game but failed. :D
• If you get pecked by a chicken you might be thrown far away off the play area (thanks, @chronosv2 for pointing it out!).
