About Chickenauts
Chickenauts is a companion-based action roguelite about fighting through a randomized alien mothership. After aliens land outside your farm and abduct your chickens for genetic experiments, you take a gun and mutated chicken companions aboard to rescue them and fight back.
Mutated companions
You free, arm and mutate chicken companions who are driven by revenge. Inspired by pop-cultural icons, they have different traits and abilities. During each run, you choose from multiple mutations that can stack, creating powerful combinations. Rooms, enemy spawns, mutations, upgrades and loot drops are randomized, so each run offers different choices and encounters.
Rooms and enemies
Runs are made up of compact rooms that take under a minute to clear, making for short, intense sessions. You face multiple types of chicken abominations and bosses, with randomized encounters encouraging experimentation.
Progress between runs
Failure does not erase all progress: collected eggs, weapons and unlocked companions carry over when you start another run.
