Shooting the ground plants a seed which quickly grows into a weapon. Within any game mode, Shotgun Farmers offers a strange mechanic where instead of reloading your guns, they are grown out of the ground. No matter the approach, “Chicken Run” typically plays around the chicken and serves as the centerpiece of Shotgun Farmers as a whole. In fuller lobbies with up to 12 players, the game becomes more strategic, where the chicken-holding team often attempts to set up a stationary defense around a specific building or landmark. Using the environment to my advantage, I tried stealthily running from building to building while my few teammates would go out and confront the hunting team. Whenever I was holding the chicken, I felt a heightened fear of getting blown to bits at any moment. When playing in small lobbies of 2-6 people, this mode becomes an adrenaline-fueled chase sequence. Everyone can see where the chicken (or chicken-holder) is located, so both sides know where to find some action. While the game offers your typical team deathmatch and free-for-all game modes, I especially enjoyed playing “Chicken Run”, where the goal is to hold a chicken cumulatively longer than the opposing team.

Each map is open though, unlike the payload-objective maps we’ve often become accustomed to. The game is quite similar to Team Fortress 2 if you stripped out the class-based system for more generic play, as colorful maps contain several hiding spots and buildings in order to encourage strategy without feeling too claustrophobic. Cartoony graphics and a sense of humor make it a blast to play with friends. Shotgun Farmers stands as a competitive multiplayer game with a small variety of maps, unlockables, and weapons.

With high aspirations to stand alongside Team Fortress 2 and Overwatch as the next great multiplayer PC shooter, Shotgun Farmers needs to gain traction in the public eye to make it to the top. Not only are player suggestions added into the game live on-stream, but Shotgun Farmers also serves as a great example of a community-driven project.
