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

My parents did the same

Everybody pirated the game back then

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 :heart:

P.s
I don’t know how this webs didn’t have any viruses included with the game

CI2 demo, don’t remember which edition though.

Here more detailed story:

(just the first post, I planned to rewrite others when CIU exits from EA, but somehow we’re still not ready for release)

3 Likes

The story is similar between every version

About every edition i didn’t really like any edition other than the main one
Fun fact : the first ci i played was ci3 xmas edition

At the time i didn’t really understand the cutscenes because i was young and i didn’t quite understand English bec it wasn’t my main language

My dad got the game and I was like 8-12 years old and I remembered the game 6 years later, I’m so happy they made more releases!

I played CI4 way back 2013, CI5 in 2019 and CIU in 2020

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.
