May 2025
Got all the gems and beat the game. Bomb Chicken is a somewhat short and very creative puzzle platformer with surprisingly good level design for the most part. Not impressive, but really solid. Despite being built around a jumpless player character that has to lay short-fused bombs for traversal, the game can be surprisingly fast paced due to the push/kick mechanic, and aside from Stage 27, which made me want to pull my hair out, every level in the game was really creative and a blast to play through. Unfortunately, and I feel like I'll be echoing other reviews here when I say this, a lives system felt a bit intrusive to Bomb Chicken's gameplay loop. Most of your lives are going down the drain while you're exploring and puzzle solving for the gem collecting, and not while you're going through the main path of the levels, so it really just makes you waste time when you could be spending trying a specific challenge again, since just getting to a secret room or whatever again is mostly trivial if you don't have to worry about the things you've already collected. Either way, I liked it, and albeit I can't say its anything special, what I can say is that it is really competent, and that you're unlikely to be left disappointed if you give it your time.

No jump, only bomb. Very satisfying and I don't feel too frustrated when I run out of lives.

meu review sincero deste jogo, se tu quer se divertir, este não é o jogo. Ele é bem desafiante, chego a me estressar nele ao nível de uma partida competitiva de Rainbow Six Siege. Estou na fase 27 e cara, me estressei muito na 26 e 25, enfim, o jogo é legal, é desafiante, porém tem horas que estressa muito. Se tu curte jogo que morre e volta, estilo dark souls, pode jogar esse, é maneiro, os puzzles são legais, mas o tradeoff irmão é a sua paz!

Super fun little platformer! There are definitely parts that feel too cramped and frustrating to be enjoyed given that dying can sometimes send you back really far. Fun though.

This game is fun and polished, but the gameplay can be aggravating at times... still you can tell that this game was well-designed, reminds me of puzzle platformers I used to play on CoolMath. Also the story doesn't really go anywhere if you were expecting that (not that it needs to), but the game kinda sets up that there's gonna be an explanation to this chicken factory thing at the end but there's not C-tier
