A Crazy New Feature, A Puzzle World, and Behind the Scenes Animation!


Hey Jolters!

We’ve been hard at work on Ultimate Chicken Horse, creating new content for the game and continuing to try to get as much press as possible. We’ve got some exciting new stuff to show you today!

First, we have a new feature to introduce that will blow your socks off, then glue them back on. What? Introducing… HONEY! Sticky honey, that makes things stick to things and makes for even more madness than before:

Just think of the possibilities!

Next up, we have some sketches of the puzzle world, designed to get those little gears in your head turning. Right now these are just very preliminary sketches, but I also made a short video describing the first two levels.

In the image below, the crates are the beginnings and ends of the level, where you receive the blocks to be placed in order to get to the next one. The blue dots are pickups that you can get if you’re really awesome.

Here’s the video explaining how we teach some mechanics to the players in the first two levels.

That’s not all folks! We also made a video outlining an animation detail that’s often overlooked, but super important in the feel and look of our game. Our artist, Kyler, talks about smear animations and what they do. Interesting video even for the non-artists amongst us!

That’s all we have for you today! Well actually we have lots of stuff we’ve been working on, but we’ll save it for another update!

See you next time! And PLEASE continue to share and post this project everywhere and anywhere, we need your support!

"Our work is never over" they said.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Update 2.627

New challenges & new effects!

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

I worked so hard to get all four of them to the end safely, but then...

Made my first ever animation.
