Chicken Chase

This game was created as part of a personal 24-hour challenge.
I wanted to see how much I could accomplish in just one day of focused development. To make the most of the time, I used assets I had already created, purchased, or sourced for free from the asset store.

🐶 About the Game

You play as a determined herding dog with one goal: round up all the chickens and guide them into the fenced area before time runs out!

Use your bark to make nearby chickens move faster, and your powerful nose to sniff out the closest stray.

Manage your time wisely — if you herd all the chickens in time, you’ll unlock the next level. (Currently, the game features 3 levels.)

🛠️ Development Notes

This project was created in just 24 hours as a fun and focused challenge. A devlog will be available soon on YouTube where I break down the process, decisions, and lessons learned. (Link coming soon!)
