A downloadable game

Welcome to our game off 2018 entry.


You play as a chicken farmer who has had the unfortunate luck of having an ancient alien artifact land on his property. The farmer has found that anything grown in his garden change in a very strange way. When fed to his chickens, the power of the artifact transforms the chicken in a weapon of unimaginable power.

The artifact has attracted alien's from all around. It is your job to keep the artifact safe else it fall into the wrong hands.

In this farming defense game you must defend the artifact while growing food to make super chickens. Each night defended will result in your plants growing. Some plants take 1 night while others take 2 to become fully grown. You'll know because fully grown plants radiate power in the form of sparkles. :)

After each wave the player is given some money that can be spent on upgrades or new seeds. You will have to balance both if you are to survive.
