It's been a month since the last update. From the early access release until version 0.10.0 there were weekly updates to the game. This past month of no updates doesn't mean the game hasn't been worked on, in fact, this might be the biggest update yet.

What to expect

Versus mode

A new game mode for local co-op will be featured in this upcoming update. It's 'Versus mode'!! Play against you friend or foe ;) in split screen and collect as many chickens as possible within a defined time limit. The winner is whoever has the most chickens collected. Your chickens will also attack your foe's chickens for a lot of chaotic fun.

City map

Since the release of the game there hasn't been a new map as focus was heavy on improving performance and updating visuals. With most of that out of the way, I've had time to create a new exciting map which takes you to the city streets filled with zombie chickens.

T-rex chicken zombie

Unlike the other maps, the zombie maps are lacking in enemy variety, and present little challenge when given a lot of power-ups. This is where the monster T-Rex comes in. The super mutant chicken returning to it's original roots of the dinosaur era. Watch out for this monster as T-rex will stomp your chickens flat when too close.

Other

Included in the update are a few bug fixes as well as the usual performance improvements.

Developer news

Some personal news, after the release of this update I will be away for a month as I will be getting married to my beautiful fianc and going on our honeymoon. Once returned I will be back into development focusing on efforts towards the 1.0 release.
