Ultimate Chicken Horse Multiplayer

[Colorful Arty]

I had an absolute blast playing Ultimate Chicken Horse several weeks ago with Flopsy, mobius, and geoo! I know quite a few people own the game now, so I wonder how many people would be interested in playing some multiplayer this Saturday at 18:00 UTC? Only 4 can play in a server just FYI. I'll record the session and upload videos periodically as I edit them. Just let me know if this is a good time for people; if not, we can schedule it for a different day.

[Ryemanni]

Missed the sale, but I might still pick this game up just to try it out in a group.

[mobius]

@Raymanni; if you be my friend I might gift you a copy
EDIT: nevermind, just remembered people from America cannot gift to Europe (or parts of Europe )

I'm game for this date (as of now I don't have any plans that day) Though I probably won't be able to voice chat.

I also recently spoke to InsaneSteve on discord (who has it) and said he might be down. I'll let him know of the date and time.

[Flopsy]

I'll try and be there, I really enjoyed the first session.

[SQron188]

Yes, please

[Flopsy]

I should definitely be at this session now

[mobius]

would anyone be interested in playing tomorrow around the same time?

I probably won't get to this one today as I have to go do things right now.

[geoo]

Tomorrow would be great for me, same time or earlier. Today I was just too busy and now I'ma bit too tired to get started.
Maybe you can also check with Steve if he's up for it.

[Flopsy]

I can play again tomorrow if it happens.

[SQron188]

Yes, give me more

[Ryemanni]

I can't play as long as I did yesterday, but I'll join at the beginning of the session if there's a free spot.

[Colorful Arty]

No more for me most likely; I have homework to complete before the end of today; if I finish early I MAY join in, but I won't record it.

[Flopsy]

Following the 2 sessions we've had this weekend, I've been looking into custom content.

I've already made my own level but it's rather simplistic.

Either way, I've discovered that you can download challenge levels and party levels which can be fun to attempt as a group.

Ideally the host will have to have downloaded them and saved a local copy of said levels. All this is done in the underground part of the hub at the level loader.

Anyway the possibilities are endless as there is a ton of online content to play.

cool; next time we play we should definitely try something we haven't before.

Personally though I was not at all a fan of that silhouette level we did on Sunday which blocked your view 50% of the time. I already struggle enough I don't need more things getting in my way.

[Ryemanni]

I think no one really liked the dance party level. The waterfall and jungle temple are definitely my favourite ones.

[Colorful Arty]

Who's up for another session on Saturday? I made several custom levels for us to try out.

[Flopsy]

I'm supposed to be streaming on Saturday, what time did you have in mind?

[Ryemanni]

Saturday works, but I also wanna see Flopsy's stream.

[Colorful Arty]

I thought Sunday was when you were streaming Flopsy. In that case, we could do UCH multiplayer either Friday or Sunday.

[SQron188]

All three: Friday, Saturday and Sunday work for me, although I want to attend Flopsy's stream. I hope I can make it both here and there.

[mobius]

I'll play anytime except I may be working early Saturday morning. Late Friday or Sunday should be open too.

I'll be free to use a mic for a short window (5:00 PM UTC) on Saturday so if anyone wants to play before Flopsy's stream I can then.

[Flopsy]

I'd rather the Ultimate Chicken Horse was not on the same day as the stream, I'm sure other people would rather they were on different days as well.

[SQron188]

Shameless plug: here are some scraps of footage of the session from 8th of April:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtqpUENKNV0

[Flopsy]

Video was good quality but I had to turn the volume all the way up to hear it but that wasn't a problem

Thanks for uploading it, some good rounds caught in that video.

It's too bad it cut out at a tense moment where geoo was pursuing a hard to reach coin

[Colorful Arty]

I can do Friday between 3:00pm and 6:00pm EST as well as Sunday after 1:00pm EST. Honestly, I'd prefer Sunday.

[mobius]

anyone able to play a little tomorrow around 8:00 PM UTC?

[Colorful Arty]

I'm game for that. I can make some more custom levels as well.

[Flopsy]

I could do that, I need a break from exam revision at some point this week

[mobius]

anyone up for a game tomorrow night at 11:00 PM UTC? (thursday)

[607]

Seems fun, maybe I should get this game as well, if I can play with some of you guys. (I watched Arty's video this morning)

[Flopsy]

Sorry 11pm UTC is too late for me, it would be even later for the likes of Raymanni and SQron also

[Ryemanni]

More people are always welcome, 607. And yes, 11pm is too late for me.

[607]

More people are always welcome, 607. And yes, 11pm is too late for me.

When do you usually play? I can only play until 19 UTC, on summertime.

[Ryemanni]

The usual time is somewhere around 18:00 UTC.

[SQron188]

@607

I could play every now and then at various hours. All that remains is to arrange the particular date, time and other details.
It may be temporarily easier from my perspective now that I've got a few days off.

[607]

I've got two weeks off, and my birthday's tomorrow. Should I buy it as a birthday present?

[Nessy]

I've got two weeks off, and my birthday's tomorrow. Should I buy it as a birthday present?

Happy Birthday!

If you want I can try to gift you that game through Steam as a birthday present. I don't mind Hopefully it works. I just need to know where you are on Steam is all.

[mobius]

anyone up for a game tomorrow around 2:00 PM UTC? (14:00) As always I can't guarantee that I'll make it but it looks like more people are getting interested in it. If there are many more than 4 players we can play in more than 1 group.

[Flopsy]

I'm going to give the next couple of sessions a miss, gives a chance for new players to get involved if they want to because I need a break from this game.

[SQron188]

I could play at that time, most probably.

[mobius]

I'll can play again at 18:00 UTC, so more people can show up, if they want to.
Let's get more Lemmings inspired level too

[Nessy]

I can make a 18:00 UTC session but not a 14:00 UTC unfortunately Excited to play for the first time

[Ryemanni]

I can join 18:00 if there aren't already 4 people. People who haven't played yet have priority.

[607]

That would be amazing if possible, I thought I'd have to pass, as the party I hosted was more expensive than I expected. (over €50,- on pizzas alone... )

[Colorful Arty]

I may be able to make it to this session; I'll plan on it anyways.

I made a lot of new Lemmings maps we can try out too.

[607]

Lemmings maps? That sounds interesting!

[Nessy]

It's so beautiful...

[607]

I bought the game!
I haven't got any controllers (I should get a GameCube to USB once), but my brother and I played Creative, the only mode available for shared keyboard play.

[607]

Have you not played since I got the game?

[Ryemanni]

No, we haven't played for a while, but I think we should again soon. Maybe next weekend 19th or 20th?

[mobius]

I can play tomorrow night (Monday) around 8:00 PM UTC. Anyone interested?

[607]

I could probably play on the 20th, and perhaps on the 19th. I'll be away from Wednesday to Friday, so I might be tired or doing things around the house on the 19th. But in the evening I could probably play (if it's not too late).

[Ryemanni]

So, I'm up for a game tomorrow 20th 18utc. Anyone else interested or able to join?

[geoo]

I'd be in. Got some work to do, but hopefully I'd be done by then.

[Ryemanni]

Just a reminder: the session will start in about 10 mins from this post, and there's still room for more people if they wanna join.

[607]

That was a lot of fun! I played for way longer than I had expected, it was hard to stop. That's not a big deal, though, as tomorrow is a holiday anyway. Thanks for playing with me!
I sure improved quickly!

[607]

I would like to play again!

[Ryemanni]

I'm up for another game. Maybe this weekend when we're not playing Lix?

[607]

I should probably be able to play at most evenings, as I've got vacation.

[mobius]

this weekend; I'll play if there's an open spot.

[Flopsy]

Can I suggest it's on Saturday if possible because I'm doing a custom Lemmings level stream this Sunday at 18:00 UTC

[IchoTolot]

I can't say for sure that I'm there, but I will try.     Maybe we even get 2 groups together.

[Ryemanni]

Saturady works fine, the usual time.

[Flopsy]

Sadly I'll be working late on Saturday so I'll have to give this a miss. Have fun guys

[Flopsy]

The custom level stream has been called off now, I can now play if you still want to hold the session on Sunday.

[Nessy]

If Flopsy's custom level stream has been cancelled and if this session can happen on Sunday, I can join in

[Ryemanni]

Both work for me, if more people can play on sunday I'll join then too.

[SQron188]

Maybe I could pop in for a bit as well.

[Flopsy]

Ok, there seems to be a lot of people interested in this session later today. To clear up any confusion, if we get more than 4 people then we'll just split into 2 groups and possibly even go into separate channels of the Lix mumble.
So please come if you would like to play, either to the IRC or the Lix Mumble at around 18:00 UTC, even if you're late you're still welcome.

[607]

I thought I had forgotten about this and missed it, but if it's this evening, I might still be able to play! I am traveling, though, but 18 UTC is probably late enough to be settled.

[IchoTolot]

I may come a bit later to the session.

We gonna go to a restaurant 1,5 hours before, because a mate is moving away in the next week.

[Colorful Arty]

Count me in for this session!

[Flopsy]

I'm still in for this session, just going to be a bit late.

[607]

That was fun again!

Also, the most consecutive gaming I've found I can take is about 1.5 hours, so I think I left at the right time. I hope the other match-ups will be good!

[mobius]

Anyone interested in a game of UCH tomorrow (sunday) around 19:00-20:00 UTC?

[SQron188]

Maybe, for a short little bit.

[mobius]

Anyone up for a game this Saturday (August 18) around usual time? 18:00 UTC

I might not make it until 19:00 but I'm not sure yet

[SQron188]

Maybe

[IchoTolot]

Saturday probably not, but I could play on Sunday though.

[607]

I don't check this forum enough; if you're actually going to do a session, it'd be really appreciated if you could tag me on Discord.

[Ryemanni]

Ultimate Chicken Horse is about to receive a new hefty update on September 25. This includes some new blocks, levels and a character. I think we should definitely play again once this update comes out.

https://www.cleverendeavourgames.com/chimply-amazing-update

I agree; they look like awesome new additions

[607]

Oh, cool!
Edit: Aw, I'll miss the notebook, though.

[Flopsy]

The new levels look awesome.

Shame there is still no crossplay with the Xbox One version though, and I thought Microsoft was big on crossplays.

I might pick up the Switch version if necessary because the controller disconnecting consistently is getting annoying now when I use my Xbox One controller on PC.

I'm up for this definitely

[mobius]

anyone up for a quick session tomorrow night (Tuesday 20~21:00)?

[SQron188]

anyone up for a quick session tomorrow night (Tuesday 20~21:00)?

We're talking 20:00 - 21:00 UTC here? A bit late for me but maybe, please ping me in the IRC, I'll try to be there.

[mobius]

my phone quit working yesterday so I had to run to the phone store after work today; pretty much spoiling this.

I'm eating dinner now but maybe in an hour or so I can play but Idk yet.

[SQron188]

That's a shame. I hope it went well for you in the end.
And one hour from when you were referencing (00:00 -> 01:00 am where I live) it was too late for me to stay up. Maybe we'll get to play next time.

[mobius]

anyone up for a game on Nov 18th? (Sunday)? Any time is good for me.
(that's about a week from now

[607]

Nope, we've got a family weekend then.

[mobius]

anyone up for a game on Nov 18th? (Sunday) usual time

I forgot to say also I may be up for a game tomorrow (Nov 11 (Sunday, usual time) as well if anyone else wants to.

[SQron188]

I'll try to be present then, we'll see what occurs.

[Colorful Arty]

I'd love to try more Chicken Horse sometime. Tomorrow does not work as I'll be at SkyZone with a few friends, but I'll see what next weekend is like.

[Ryemanni]

18th should be good for me.

[Yung Gotenks]

I can join!

[GigaLem]

I can join!

So can I, thanks to mobius

[SQron188]

So can I, thanks to mobius

Color me intrigued, I'd like to see that! Till then, hopefully!

[Colorful Arty]

It looks like this coming Sunday works for a lot of people! We'll likely have to have 2 different hosts to accommodate this many people.

[Yung Gotenks]

(just so you guys know, my steam name is thegamingboy192)

[Ryemanni]

If we're gonna have 2 groups maybe we should try to use discord for voice chat?

[geoo]

From IRC:

<Forestidia> SQron: Everybody should be able to make temporary rooms in mumble by now.
<Forestidia> SQron: I actually didn't arrange that; Simon made it possible after Arty needed a room for the Ocarina of Time race.
<Forestidia> Right click then add (or the equivalent in your language settings) should do it.

Usual time is 18 UTC? As in practice it means 1 hour earlier for everyone (in most of the northern hemisphere) than usual due to the DST change.

I might have the chance to join, possibly a bit later, will see.

[Simon]

If we're gonna have 2 groups maybe we should try to use discord for voice chat?

I'll happily offer my Mumble server. The high-quality low-latency free-software solution that does not invade your privacy and won't store everything you send on corporate servers.

Even guests can create rooms on my server (for server details, ask me via forum PM or ask via IRC quakenet.org #lix). Make as many rooms as you need.

-- Simon

[Ryemanni]

That's good. I just remembered the last time when we had more than four people and we had to invade the 'lix nightly hacking' room.

[mobius]

we'll start playing soon

[mobius]

had 7 people; thanks for joining everyone!
I missed playing with Arty, Giga, Yung and SQRon; but had a great time with everyone else.
Look forward to the next time!

[607]

I'm glad to hear!

[mobius]

anyone up for a game this Saturday usual time? (18:00 UTC) Dec 22

[SQron188]

anyone up for a game this Saturday usual time? (18:00 UTC) Dec 22

Perhaps

I'll try to be there then

[Yung Gotenks]

if i'm not doing anything then, sure.

[IchoTolot]

I won't be able to make it. I will be at my hometown during that time.

[Flopsy]

Anyone who is curious about the crossplay on this game with Nintendo Switch and Steam, I tested this during the session this evening, it's pretty good. Only thing is you'll have to set up a private session with a Code to get into the lobby because the Steam interface will be absent.

Also the swear words will be automatically filtered in the text chat (typical Nintendo fashion!)

I know most people don't like playing with a controller but I'm just throwing this into the topic for those who may be able to play this game and join sessions because of having a Nintendo Switch.

The crossplay works like this, you can play with: Steam and Switch users; Steam and PS4 users; but NOT PS4 and Switch.
Xbox One does not support crossplay at all.

[SQron188]

Thanks for tonight's session to everyone who participated and see you real soon I'm sure!

[607]

Aw, missed it again. I feel like I check this forum at least once a week but I guess I don't.

[mobius]

Who'd like to play Next Saturday usual time? 18:00 UTC

There's been an update to the game but I don't know anything about it.

[SQron188]

I have nothing against joining both this and the Jackbox session during the upcoming weekend.
If the UCH session gets adjourned say, one week, I'd be okay with that too.

[Colorful Arty]

I'm game for it. That'll be a multiplayer-intensive weekend for me!

[mobius]

would it be alright if we try to start around 17:00 UTC instead? one hour earlier (this is 1:00 PM Eastern US time). Of course anyone can join later if slots are available.

[SQron188]

17:00 UTC is definitely more preferable for me.

[Flopsy]

I can't join this session sadly, I would like to start playing this again but with working evenings until midnight and working 6 days a week, it's very miss, miss, miss with all these session dates as of late. Could I perhaps suggest the next session date in a few weeks to a month's time whenever it might be that you want to play again? A lot of my single nights off during the weeks coming do fall on weekends so I could list them even.

Why not. Anything after the tomorrow's Jackbox session, except for Mondays and Tuesdays, should work for me; don't know about other people.

[mobius]

session starting right now; anyone's welcome

[Nessy]

Honestly I'm still a little peeved that I couldn't join the UCH or Jackbox sessions last weekend I really want to and would like to try setting up another date if that's okay.

How does Saturday, March 23rd at 18:00 UTC sound? I wanted to include Sunday as well but March 23rd is the next day Flopsy has off and I wanted to give him the chance to participate if he wanted to on that day.

[SQron188]

How does Saturday, March 23rd at 18:00 UTC sound?

Fine by me, I'll try to keep you guys up to date if anything comes up.

[607]

Yes, I'd like to catch up on what I missed.

[Nessy]

Just a reminder that the UCH session is tomorrow at 18:00 UTC The session will unofficially start one hour earlier though for anyone that prefers the earlier time.

[mobius]

UCH Saturday 2019-4-27 17:00 UTC. (next week)

I prefer discord for voice chat (because I cannot connect to the mumble server still)

[SQron188]

Sounds good to me. I'll try and be there.

[607]

I might celebrate my birthday then (it's on the 28th but my sister's best friend is getting baptised on Sunday), so I probably won't come! But I'll try to remember the option.

[mobius]

How about a game of UCH this Sunday June 2 around 18:00 UTC?

[607]

Sounds fun!

[mobius]

Three people so far expressed interest; (SQRon, Nessy me and 607) so if all play we have four [the limit for one game]. But if you're interested there still may be room if someone quits early.

[Colorful Arty]

I may join too if that's all right.

[607]

I enjoyed Ultimate Chicken Horse on Sunday! I'm glad that you would wait around or restart a game for me here and there, because of the pc issues.

[mobius]

how about another game this Sunday June 23, usual time (any time from 17:00 UTC onward really).

[SQron188]

how about another game this Sunday June 23, usual time (any time from 17:00 UTC onward really).

I'd like to unless I get some prioritised engagements

[SQron188]

I'm eager to play again soon!
I'm guessing a good time for another session would be a weekend, so how about the upcoming weekend? That is, Saturday or Sunday (6th or 7th July) at 17:00 UTC?

[mobius]

7th would be better for me cause I'm going to a funeral on Saturday.

[Colorful Arty]

I'm down for a Sunday game!

[geoo]

There's a decent chance I might actually make it for this Sunday

EDIT: Got a lot of stuff going on, so don't be surprised in case I don't show up tomorrow after all.

[Flopsy]

It looks like you already have enough players but I might be down for playing this Sunday also, it's been a while since I played.

Hit me up on Discord during the session if you need a 4th player

[Flopsy]

Is this UCH still happening today? I haven't heard anything about it since.

[Colorful Arty]

It should still be on. I think we're starting in about an hour.

[SQron188]

I say let's play some more on the upcoming Saturday or Sunday (20th or 21st July) at 17:00 UTC onwards.

[Nessy]

I'll be up for a game this Sunday the 21st

[Colorful Arty]

I won't be able to join in on Sunday, but you all have fun without me!

[mobius]

I may be able to join; I'll sit out if there are more than 4.
It's going to be super hot that day here so... what better than to sit inside and play games

[Flopsy]

I'm out this time as well, I'll be on holiday this weekend.

[mobius]

anyone interested in a game tomorrow usual time?

[SQron188]

Don't know. My dektop computer's gone bonkers and I'm not sure how well UCH would play on this laptop. In the worst-case scenario I could just hang out for a bit in voice chat.

I'll see if any more people decide to play.

[mobius]

anyone interested in a game tomorrow usual time?(17~18:00 UTC)

[Colorful Arty]

Anyone want to play UCH again soon? I know I do. How about the 17th at the usual time?

[SQron188]

Let us hang out indeed. Hopefully nothing will stop me from attending

17th is a bit far away, but I myself at least have some multiplayer stuff this week - me and my cousin play Diablo II almost each day

[Flopsy]

I can't make the 17th but I can make 24th. I'm up for it if 24th is good.

[mobius]

I'd like to play on Saturday Nov 16 around 17:00 UTC. (Two Saturdays from now)

wow I totally didn't see that Arty posted recently (thought that was a long time ago at first). I guess it'll be on Sunday then.

I might be able to play on the 24 as well

[geoo]

17th or 24th would both work for me. Would be good to know in advance though in case I make plans for the other weekend.

[Colorful Arty]

Well, since it seems more people can do the 24th, let's plan on the 24th.

[mobius]

I can play on the 24th; but would anyone also like to play this Saturday as well? (16th)

[Colorful Arty]

I can't play on the 16th unless it's early in the morning (like 10am EST).

[SQron188]

Unless something unpredictable comes up, I should be able to make it at any of aforementioned dates and times.

[geoo]

So this Sunday 24th, what is gonna be the usual time? 17 UTC? 18 UTC?

[Flopsy]

18:00 UTC is the usual time I believe

[mobius]

I'd really like to start playing earlier (17:00 is possible) as I'll be leaving no later than 19:00. (I'm going to a funeral).

[SQron188]

Anyone up for some more on the 20th, or 21st, or 22nd? Last one before Christmas? The red panda who saved Christmas?

For me, 17~18:00 UTC or even earlier if possible

[mobius]

Yes! I'd like to play tomorrow: Sunday, the December 22nd around 17:00 UTC. 16:00 is even fine for me if anyone wants that.

[Flopsy]

I'll be available pretty much every evening for the remainder of December if anyone fancies an impromptu game at any point.

I was away on 22nd so I missed out of this

[mobius]

how about a game on Saturday Jan 11, around 18:00 UTC?

[Flopsy]

I cannot make it on this day sadly
Have fun anyway

[SQron188]

11th sounds good to me for now.

[Colorful Arty]

[mobius]

anyone up for a session this weekend on Sunday or Monday? I can't do Saturday (tomorrow). I have off Monday; it's Presidents day in America. usual time.

[mobius]

Anyone up for a game? the following Sunday March 8 usual time (that is around 18:00 UTC)

Daylight retard time is changing around here again this weekend so I'll likely be early or late anyways

[geoo]

Considering most of us are grounded (or will be soon), who's up for some rounds of UCH?
Most evenings should work for me on a relatively short notice, including weekdays; anyone got a suggestion for a date?

[SQron188]

I might play some but that depends on what you mean exactly with "evenings".

[geoo]

I'm pretty flexible, anything between 7 and 11 pm UTC+1 should definitely go and earlier probably as well.

[mobius]

how about this Sunday that time? (that is around 4:00 PM Eastern US time and later)

there's a new update too so should be interesting

I might be available tomorrow as well, not sure yet.
As of this post I won't be working next week or in the foreseeable future but that is subject to change (my job's trying to get a "waiver" on the quarantine to keep working for better or worse). So if people want to play on a weekday I might be able to do that as well

[geoo]

4 PM Eastern is 8 pm UTC/9 pm UTC+1, works for me, though I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to start a bit earlier already.

[mobius]

I'll gladly do earlier. My ideal time on Sunday is around 18:00 UTC like usual

[geoo]

Let's make 19 UTC today. Happy to play for a while even if we're just two, but anyone else is free to join.

Arty and Ron said they're interested. Since a while back I beleive Simon fixed the issue that was causing mumble not to work for me so I should be good to go to use mumble this time; but idk how much I'll be talking since my voice is still messed up.

how about a game this Saturday or Sunday 20, or 21? 17~18:00ish UTC

anyone available for a game sometime this weekend (July 4,5 or 6) I'm free on Monday as well.

I'm game for this. Sunday works best for me, but I may be able to do Monday as well.

I purchased the game today and am hoping to make my first appearance here! I can do both Sunday and Monday. 18:00 UTC sounds fair to me.
