Wind the key, and the whole henhouse comes to life. You are the Poultry Keeper, a little wind-up automaton with one job: gather every golden egg from the gantries before the clock runs down, while a flock of clockwork birds does its best to stop you. Every sprite is drawn in code — nothing is shipped as pixel art.
How to play
- Run and climb the gear-rack ladders to reach every egg.
- Clear all the eggs on a level to move up to the next poultry house.
- Scatter a handful of seed to stop a hungry hen in its tracks.
- Ride the lifts, duck into a top-ladder refuge, and always mind the clock.
Mind the flock
- Chickens patrol the gantries — quick, and relentless.
- Roosters stand too tall to jump; once one has pecked some seed, it will spit it straight back at you.
- The caged goose is set loose on a timer — and then it comes hunting.
Features
- Eight hand-tuned levels that loop and escalate — faster and meaner each time around.
- A brass-and-verdigris clockwork world, every sprite hand-drawn in code.
- A local high-score table — chase your best, no account needed.
- An online leaderboard too, if you want one: Game Center on Apple devices, Google Play Games on Android.
- Play with a keyboard, a controller, or touch.
- A built-in level editor, with shareable level codes — and a code made on one platform opens on the other.
- No ads. No in-app purchases.

Private by design
No accounts, no ads, no tracking. The game runs entirely on your device. The only thing that ever leaves it is a leaderboard score — through Game Center on Apple devices, or Google Play Games on Android — and only if you are signed in to that service. See its privacy policy.
Platforms
Universal across iPhone, iPad and Mac — one purchase covers every Apple screen — and the same game on Android phones and tablets. The Android version is not a port: it is the same code, drawing the same clockwork world, with Android’s own controls on top.
