Escape The Chicken Farm
Documentation
Welcome to Escape the Chicken Farm!

You’re a chicken locked inside a guarded farm. The entire area is built like a maze — fences, barns, hay bales and tight corridors. Somewhere on the map is the exit (usually at the edge). Your job is to find it and escape.
Sounds simple. It isn’t.

Farmers patrol the map and start chasing you as soon as they spot you. Dogs are faster, more aggressive and will hunt you down longer. If any of them touches you, the run ends instantly.

After some time, things get even worse:
farmers don’t just chase — they stop, aim and shoot. A short countdown appears before they fire, so you have a moment to react. If you’re not moving, you’re done.
To survive, you can throw eggs in the direction you’re facing.

A normal egg removes one enemy, but there’s a cooldown after every throw. You can’t spam — you have to decide when it’s worth it.
As the game progresses, you unlock stronger options:

- Chaos egg: explodes and wipes out multiple enemies in an area
- Freeze egg: slows or freezes enemies, giving you time to escape
- Stink egg: creates a cloud that confuses enemies and messes up their movement

Boosts appear randomly on the map and disappear if you don’t pick them up:
- Speed boost lets you outrun almost anything
- Invisibility makes you temporarily undetectable
- Rapid fire reduces your cooldown and lets you play aggressively

Scattered across the map are cages with small chickens inside.
Open them, and they join you. They follow you, collide with enemies and can interrupt them. One chicken helps. A group turns the game into chaos.
Each level pushes you further:
- more enemies
- tighter spaces
- less room to react

On top of that, the game has a day-night cycle. At night, visibility drops and it becomes harder to read the situation, while enemies remain just as dangerous.
The core loop is constant pressure:
move, react, decide — fight or escape — and keep going until you reach the exit.

Controls:
- Move: Arrow keys
- Shoot: SPACE
- Chaos egg: X
- Freeze egg: Z
- Stink egg: C

Find the exit. Use everything you have.
And don’t get surrounded.

Have Fun!
