About Feather Wings Studio

The passionate indie team behind Runaway Chicken: Epic Escape, creating unforgettable gaming adventures since 2022

Our Story

Feather Wings Studio was born from a simple yet powerful idea: what if a chicken's quest for freedom could inspire millions of players worldwide? Founded in late 2022 by a group of passionate game developers who met during a weekend game jam, our studio began as a weekend project in a cramped garage in Portland, Oregon.

The concept for Runaway Chicken: Epic Escape emerged when our creative director witnessed a real chicken escaping from a local farm and thought, "This would make an amazing game!" What started as a humorous observation quickly evolved into a comprehensive game design that combines strategic puzzle-solving with heartwarming storytelling.

After months of late-night coding sessions, countless iterations, and an unwavering belief in our feathered protagonist, we launched our first beta version in early 2023. The overwhelming positive response from our initial 10,000 beta testers convinced us that we had something special. Today, with over 2.5 million active players worldwide, Runaway Chicken: Epic Escape has become a testament to the power of indie game development and creative storytelling.

Our journey from a garage startup to a recognized indie game studio has been filled with challenges, triumphs, and countless cups of coffee. But through it all, we've remained committed to our core mission: creating games that bring joy, challenge, and a sense of adventure to players of all ages.

I've been gaming for over 20 years, and Runaway Chicken reminds me why I fell in love with games in the first place. It's pure joy wrapped in clever puzzles and beautiful art. The fact that it's completely free without any predatory monetization makes it even more special. This is how mobile games should be made.
