3DS User Reviews

Chicken Wiggle is something special. Coming from the developers behind games like Mutant Mudds, Xeodrifter, Bomb Monkey, and other pixel art adventures (not to mention the 3d games, Dementium, Moon etc.) this is not a surprise. Atooi, / Jools Watsham have brought back a bit of love to 2d platforming that I haven't felt in a long time. Unlike most 2d platformers nowadays, that rely on overly realistic animation, and floaty controls, Chicken Wiggle excels at being as precise as you can get. Perfect controls, great feel and a host of unique level designs, and creative mechanics are what really sets this game apart, above the rest. The campaign was a joy to play through, and the included level editor is almost more impressive. The user created content supported by the developers and game players is already chock full of interesting levels, and I can't wait to jump back in to complete a level and finally upload it. Some small negatives that I need to mention though, is that for about 50% of the game it is relatively easy, however this doesn't tear the game down too much as collecting all of the 100 diamonds in each level is a blast, and oh so satisfying. The only other negative I have is the F U N collectibles hidden throughout the levels. I wish these letters took more skill to obtain, rather than hidden in very similar walls and locations throughout the levels. Overall: I highly recommend this game. The level design, controls, and mechanics truly shine, and I dare you to tell me of a more refined 2d platformer made by a 2 person team.

I gotta say I was not quite sure what to expect from this game, but I was pleasantly surprised! It is a very easy game 75% of the time (it gets a little bit harder after level 5), but I kept wanting to play more and collect everything. I gotta say it **** that you do not get anything/unlock anything for collecting everything which I was not aware of. The gameplay mechanics are simple and well done. The few abilities were very nice, but not often obtainable. It took me about 4-5 hours to complete at 100%. The ‘‘hidden’’ letters are often on your way therefore you cannot missed them which ****. Interesting game to play thought. I am giving it a 7 because I cannot give a 7.5, but it would have been a 8 if the game was harder and the letters hard to find. I did not try the level editor option as it never interested me to create levels. I personally think it was worth my $20 (Canadian).
