Platform(s): PC

Genre: 2D top down shoot 'em up

Estimated year of release: 2002

Graphics/art style: Probably pixel art, I'm pretty sure the background was just black with stars flying by.

Notable characters: Your red(?) space ship collecting chicken legs

Notable gameplay mechanics: You are in a red(?) space ship in space trying to order chicken legs (drumsticks?), but the space KFC or whatever drive-through is all out. So you just floor it and shoot your way through the galaxy and collect chicken legs.

This may or may not have been a browser game.

Chicken Invaders?

This looks really familiar. I'm not sure. If it is, my memory on the dialog was way off. In a way I like my version better. I really thought it was a red ship and there was really cool music playing in the background as you collected the chicken legs. If nobody points to a chicken invaders inspired game, I'll mark this as solved.

I'm glad you've found your game. Can you change the title according to the sidebar?

[Solved][NES][1980s] Super Mario Bros.
If you're not sure about any of the details you can add [Unknown] instead.
