🐔 Why did the chickens cross the road?

Platform

Chicken Dash is best played on mobile because of tapping & swiping, it can however be played on desktop.

Theme

This years GitHub Game Off theme was "hybrid". Chicken Dash is a combination of two popular mobile games, Crossy Road & Traffic Rush.

Tutorial

The objective of the game is to get as many chickens across the road as possible without any being hit.

Chickens can be stopped by tapping/clicking on them, tap/click again to continue walking. Chickens can be made to run be swiping/dragging them in the direction that they are walking.

When a chicken is hit, the game is over.

This game is hard af! Lol. Maybe there could be an easy mood that allows for 3 or so kills before the game ends? Regardless, it was fun!

We did consider adding lives, however after implementing the running mechanic we didn't find it to be necessary! Did you know about the running mechanic? I ask because a few people I know didn't realise.

We wanted to add an in-game tutorial so that people would learn about running before playing the game, currently the tutorial is on the GitHub README which is less than ideal!

Protip: Swipe / drag the chickens in the direction that they are walking to make them run!
