My first ever game was a copy of CI3 my parents pirated on the family pc.
At that time it was a common thing to do with any digital media. Do any boomers like me remember that ad about “You will never download a car” ?
Anyway… I never got past uco2 and dropped the game
Years later CI4 happened, got hit by nostalgia, and I spent days playing the mobile version and I was seriously intimidated by the Egg Cannon. At that time period I also suffered from being bullyed, so every gaming session helped me to relax
Then I forgot about the franchise (again) due to Minecraft becoming a better antistress for me
Years later CI5 happened, got hit with even more nostalgia and spent hours on it.
Chicken Invaders basically became a family meme: it would somehow return when everyone forgot about it
And then, as that meme was a prophecy… I forgot about the franchise again…
Years later I remembered (again) about Chicken Invaders and replayed every game from 3 to 5. And I finally had my battle with the Yolk Star… after all those years.
After that I decided to look on wikipedia and I can summarise what happened this way: “Oh cool! Every game releases every 4 years! CI6 must be coming soon! Let me search more… What is this? Chicken Invaders Universe?”
And that’s how I got into the forum
Chicken Invaders holds a special place in my heart because (as I said before) it’s the first game I have ever played. My future career has this franchise as its base, since that’s how I started gaming.
The fact that a little piece of me (The Henlley Comet) is a part of it… I don’t know how to describe the feeling
I had the same problem with ci 2 where i die at the egg boss
But ci3 i won a couple of times but i am terrible at yolk star fight because when i defeated him in ci3 i was using rockets only i wouldn’t use any rocket in the game just keep them for the yolk star
I played 4 then 5 came out a year later so i played it
After i finished 5 i forgot about the game completey that’s when i got new pc
And some day When i was laying in my bed i got idea to search about Chicken invaders
I found a video about Chicken invaders evolution
That’s when i found out about Chicken invader universe
I forgot about the video for several month
Then i started searching about the game again
Thats when i found about Chicken invaders universe early access on steam
Nice i played the game for several month now and it was so heart warming how my childhood game is still going
About how i got to the forums i had a problem with a the game i forgot what was it anyway
I searched it on google and i found page asking about the same problem and someone solved it for him
That’s when i discovered about the forums
After like 2 weeks i decided to enter the forums
I found that people was suggesting
So i joined the forums but i didn’t really post
I just created an account
My first post was a couple weeks ago
Why i entered the forums
Bec This game have a part of my heart
This title made me enter gaming
The feeling that this game gave me was something i can’t really describe
The era when the games are really good
The era when all the games were too good
The era when the games didn’t require a nice graphics to be popular
And again thank you InterAction_studios for giving all of us the best childhood game from all the games
P.s
I don’t know how this webs didn’t have any viruses included with the game
Somehow, I randomly found CI2 xmas (non-remaster one) on my D disk when I was young (5 or 6 iirc). I opened the game, start playing and all the enemy bullet it just like Ion gift so I… Crash into it.
