On the way to the commercial version of Cyber Huhn...

[TFM]

Sorry for the old disc, but I'm sure Marco tested it working.


You can find the handbook at the CC homepage though.

Commercial version of Cyber Huhn mention in this months Retro Gamer with a link to the main website.
It mentions there is a limited quantity.

It's a small bit in the section where they review games for c64, cpc, atari etc.


Nice

From the 111 Cyber Chicken boxes with unique serial number now more than 50 have been sold! Be quick and get your copy with select-able serial number. 


Cyber-Chicken for CPC

Did somebody play it with the PS2 mouse of the Symbiface?

[MacDeath]

don't tell me Cyber chicken can handle as much Harware peripherals as futureOS ?



perhaps a lightgun mode ?

Well, I had the idea of a Plus version which in addition has more sprites (all hardware of course) and supports.... the analogue joystick - which would be really cool for that kind of game. 


Now the idea of a light-pen or light-gun is also pretty cool, but then I do need a moving target cross. 


Meanwhile I made a CC version for FutureOS too. 

[MacDeath]

no, it would be a fixed screen (or fixed scolling one) but moving chickens... not really the same game.

[TFM]

Probably, or it drags the target cross in one direction. But this would only make sense for a light pen guess.

[MacDeath]

on the otehr hand, a gameplay cumulating joypad/joystick and lightgun could be nice, not sure about practicability.

[TFM]

I'm also thinking of a 256 KB Version, because there could be more different GFX. 

[Xyphoe]

Just wondering, going to order and download later, but is there an ending to this game? Methinks I should a longplay video

[Misel982001]

That's great! I am curious to review it...again!

[TFM]

Well, there is not an ending in an conventional way. Because the player fights against time. However with increasing level number it get harder and harder.

There is one exception, that's the Text Runner level in which the chicken fly quick, but in formation and they do tell you couple words (by forming big letters).

In Level 7 you have in addition Kamikaze Chicken flying towards you but they always show up at the same spots, so you can actually survive this level too after some training.

In Level 8 chicken have different speeds, alter speed, fire at you, appear at random Y positions and also Kamikaze chicken appear at random X an Y coordinates. Since this level is too hard actually I increased the number of hits your turret can take and the number of chicken which are allowed to escape (at the right end of the space).

[TFM]

Vandalsk just told me that he played Cyber Chicken with the Trackball and it worked very well. 

[TFM]

Of course it's a lot of fun to blast all chicken out of space... but everything has it's price, and sooner or later they will catch you...
