About This Game

Your father, Red Bantam, was the greatest boxer the barnyard ever knew. Then he vanished. Now the mob rules the streets, and only you can fight your way through their ranks to uncover the truth.

Fight Like a Chicken is a frame-based fighting game inspired by Punch-Out!!, where split-second timing is the difference between victory and a knockout. Master four defensive techniques, unlock devastating attacks, and face off against 12+ unique opponents—each with their own fighting style, personality, and secrets.

🥊 MASTER THE FUNDAMENTALS

- COUNTER - Punch during enemy telegraphs for bonus damage and long stuns

- DEFLECT - Perfect-frame timing heals you and earns stars for super attacks

- DODGE - Guaranteed safety with stamina management

- BLOCK - Reduce incoming damage when you need breathing room

Every attack can be countered. Every telegraph can be deflected. Learn your opponent's patterns, find the openings, and punish their mistakes.

💪 GROW STRONGER

Unlock powerful new moves as you progress:

- Hook Punch - Devastating damage with 50% knockdown chance

- Uppercut - Guaranteed knockdown when it lands

- Peck - Quick mid-range strike

- Spin Attack - Multi-hit super move that costs 3 stars

Build combos for bonus damage (COMBO! → SUPER! → ULTRA!), manage your stamina carefully, and use your earned stars at critical moments.
