Chicken Little is my entry for Ludum Dare 46, where the theme was Keep It Alive.
Click the falling apples to prevent them from falling on the chicken’s head. If an apple hits a chicken, then it is knocked out. Additional chickens are awarded after clicking a number of apples. Once all of the chickens are knocked out, the game is over. Enter your name to store it in the online leaderboard, which tracks who has the longest survival time.
Each level has three waves. After each level, at random either the gravity is increased or an additional apple drops during each wave.
Mister Adventure must collect all of the treasure in the land. The three treasures to collect are gems, coins, and chalices. Each treasure can be red, blue, or green. Only collect the treasure specified at the top of the screen. The requested treasure changes after the hourglass becomes empty. Avoid spiders and birds as they will hurt Mister Adventure and take away a heart. After losing all three hearts, Mister Adventure must restart the level.
