Chickens drop eggs which must be avoided, otherwise the player will die if they collide with these projectiles. The game features weapon power-ups that resemble gift boxes, and the player can use these to upgrade their weapons. The player takes control of a lone spacecraft, and must protect Earth from swarms of invading chickens.
It is both a single player and two-player game.
The games make heavy use of humor, especially in the form of parodies of Galaxian, Star Wars, Space Invaders and Star Trek.Ĭhicken Invaders is the first game in the series. The main theme of the game is a battle between a lone combat spacecraft and a technologically advanced race of space-faring chickens, who are intent on subjugating (and later destroying) Earth. Chicken Invaders is a series of shoot 'em up video games, developed by InterAction studios and released for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, iOS, Windows Phone, and Android platforms.
