Why Early Access?

“To enable us to receive valuable feedback from players, attract new players, and ensure a brilliant final product through iterative development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“As a developer, we are planning to keep the game in Early Access for approximately 5-6 months.

Our goal is to release a polished and enjoyable final product as soon as possible.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the full version of our game, we plan to add additional mechanics, levels, ammo options, costume options, and a system to save the chicken and move forward with the chicken. (These additional features may not be available in the final version, but they are in our plans.) We believe these additions will provide players with a more comprehensive and enjoyable gaming experience. In the Early Access version, players will have access to some of the game's core mechanics and gameplay. We plan to continue adding more content and features based on the feedback we receive from players during the Early Access period.”

We will also provide regular updates on our progress and invite our community to participate in surveys and polls to help shape the direction of the game.

Story


Once upon a time, in a far-off land, there was a brave rooster who lived on a farm with his flock of chickens. However, a sly fox began to steal the chickens, one by one, using robotic henchmen to whisk them away to hidden locations. Determined to rescue his chickens, the rooster embarked on a perilous journey to track down the fox and his minions. Along the way, the rooster discovered he had the ability to shoot fire from his beak, which he used to fight off the robotic henchmen and rescue the chickens. Eventually, the rooster reached the fox's stronghold and engaged in a fierce battle. Despite facing many challenges and obstacles, the rooster never lost hope and ultimately emerged victorious, defeating the fox and rescuing the last of his chickens. The rooster returned home a hero, and the chickens lived happily ever after, safe and sound thanks to their brave and valiant protector. The end.

Developer Story


As a solo indie game developer, creating my first game, Rooster Tale, has been a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience. The game follows the adventures of a rooster named Rooster as he navigates through various levels filled with obstacles and enemies.



I wanted the game to have a retro feel, so I chose to use pixel graphics and incorporate elements of adventure and puzzle platforming. Making the game challenging is also important to me, so I have spent a lot of time playtesting and fine-tuning the difficulty to ensure it is just right.



The process of developing Rooster Tale has not been without its obstacles. There have been many late nights spent coding and troubleshooting, as well as moments of self-doubt where I have questioned whether I am capable of seeing the project through to the end. However, the sense of accomplishment I will feel when I finally finish and publish the game will be worth all of the hard work.



I am excited to say that Rooster Tale is still in development and I am hard at work on completing it. I hope that those who play the game will enjoy the challenges and adventures that Rooster encounters on his journey.
