A downloadable GOOB for Windows and Linux

The game is a reversed "Tower Defense" game. You play as GOOB, a standard fantasy enemy, your goal is to steal LIBERATE chickens from a progressively more protected chicken coup. The game transforms into a bullet hell as the game progresses. Your objective is to make it to the coup and back with a chicken in tow. Meanwhile avoiding the numerous Arrows and Eggs being shot about. 

Liberate as many Chickens as you can! Rescue them from the clutches of a crazy local farm, and bring them back into your safe and cosy cave.

The game was created for #GMTKjam23, in 48 hours.

unironically loved this game! everything from the sound effects, level designs and art is super simple, yet extremely cute in a silly kind of way. my biggest complaint? it's too short, but that makes me excited to see more of it in the future. 

as for specifics, i really enjoy how the controls feels. it's smooth and really surprised me (in a good way)! the enemies are easy to understand even without a tutorial, but it might be nice to have one in the future.

i've already wishlisted this game on steam, and i'm happy to say that i'll be playing Up To No GOOB once it's released there too!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re working hard on getting the final worlds together. We have most of the content, but we’re still looking at completing the biggest job: polishing everything up nicely. The thought of a tutorial hasn’t struck us as necessary and we’re putting a lot of thought into making the game easy to pick up regardless of age and skill. And also thank you so much for wishlisting, it means a lot to us!

Adorable art style and sound effects! Too bad that there aren't more levels (╥﹏╥)

Veldig kult spill. Kunststilen er den største plussen her. Kontrollene føles bra ut. Fiendene er vanskelige, men de har god opptrekknings- og forutsigbarhetsanimasjoner så man forstår hva som skal skje. Et spennende moment er at spilleren kommer fra høyre, i stedet for venstre. En kan tolke dette som at spilleren faktisk er 'slemmingen' i dette spillet. God tvist på 'Tower Defense'-sjangeren!

Very cool game. Art style is the biggest plus here. Controls feels good. Enemies are hard, but they have good windup and predictions to understand what's going to happen. Exciting the fact that the player comes from the right, instead of the left. One could interpret this as the player actually being the 'bad guy' in this game. Good twist on the Tower Defense-genre!

Thanks for the kind words! And I have to agree, Br0w0ken did an amazing job on the art.
