About game
Blast away endless swarms of space chickens as they descend upon your ship in this frantic arcade classic. You control a lone fighter tasked with saving the galaxy from feathered invaders seeking revenge for generations of roasting. Every single shot counts as you navigate through chaotic patterns of incoming eggs and aggressive birds. Managing your weapon heat remains critical because spraying bullets non-stop will cause your cannons to jam during the worst possible moments. Collect power-ups drifting through the void to upgrade your firepower and sustain your survival against the escalating difficulty. Massive bosses appear periodically to test your reflexes and pattern recognition skills. Competing for the top spot on the global leaderboard keeps the tension high during every run. Play Chicken Invaders directly in your browser now without any downloads or annoying installations.
