Cluckshot Development Blog 3: Characters Part 2
Posted by Cluckworks March 28, 2026
ALL CHARACTERS ARE NOW COMPLETE!
What Have we Been up to?
In about the past half-month, I have been working on the characters system, tweaking past systems and characters, as well as completing newer ones. With that said, the survivor character system is now complete, with completely unique abilities availible to play with. With this much variability in moves, it made it far more difficult to create them, with countless bugs coming up, all needed to be solved. However, that is now past me, which will streamline the proccess with the rest of this game's content being more similar to each other. The next systems to come will may include unique weapons for the chicken, as well as modelling the map which just has placeholder models now.
Characters
The main bulk of progress was simply building these characters, which had several mechanically-challenging abilities to create. Nevertheless, I am proud to present them now.
Taylor Tailor
Since this game is supposed to be far from bland, what could be more creative than a tailor sewing up someone to heal them? This character combines quirky support with an odd grappling hook to evade the chicken.
Ability 1: Stitch Em' Up
Taylor stops another player to stitch them up, and after five seconds, they are fully healed. However, this move is fully punishable by the chicken.
Ability 2: Needle Hook
Using their sewing needle and thread, Taylor throws their needle onto a building and pulls themselves on the receding thread. This can be done for literally any distance.
Farmer Ferdinand
Ferdinand is what you would call the fighter of this bunch of survivors. His abilities are purely combat-focused which allow him to fight back against and at least slow down the chicken until help arrives.
Ability 1: Feed Scatter
Ferdinand throws feed down, stunning the chicken as it is forced to peck it up.
Ability 2: Catch
If the chicken shoots an egg at Ferdinand, he can catch it in a basket and throw it back at the chicken, if the egg connects, the chicken will be stunned.
