Hello new and existing chicken army folks!
It has come to the conclusion of Early Access. After 3 years of development and 5 months of Early Access I've reached the milestone of reaching 1.0!!!!
I've came to a point where I'm happy with the game's state and my vision of a "finished" product. I have no plans to make any massive visual changes, changes to mechanics, or how the game is played. The game is now "feature complete". What I mean by this, is that any additions to the game will not change how the game is played or make it feel different. Any new additions that will be added are to enhance the player experience or resolve existing issues.
Patch notes for version 1.0
New features:
- Added freeze beam upgrade.
Visual changes
- New chicken models.
- Fixed bug with guns and gear not getting squashed when actor is ran over.
- Removed saved count next to timer in versus mode.
- Fixed feeder healing animation being played on chickens that are no longer near the feeder.
List of fixes and balance:
- Fixed bug when completing Quarantine map it won't navigate to City map.
- Fix bug in versus, helicopter chicken will cause crash when targeting a chicken that is saved.
- Fix bug in settings menu being unable to switch tabs when gamepad is plugged in.
- Screen shake is now enabled by default when first running the game.
- Feeder provides higher healing value (previously +20, now +50 every 2 seconds).
