Animated Story Introduction: The story of the game is introduced to the students via animated slides that give context to what is happening in the game.

​

Animated Victory Results: Captain Chicken triumphantly escapes the dangerous planet and returns home.

​

Animated Game Over Screen: Upon being defeated a certain number of times, Captain Chicken loses and becomes the aliens' next meal.

Tricky Aliens:  The aliens are tricky!  They have a variety of different actions/animations they can do before they attack Captain Chicken.  The order is always random.  As is how long it takes for the alien to become aggressive and attack.  The only moment the aliens are vulnerable is when they attack so students must watch carefully.
