Joystiq - Humans Must Answer. It's a shmup, and one most will recognize as having an old-school vibe about it. You play as the pilot of a scout ship called The Golden Eagle, which is manned by chickens – they like to think they're a higher species of bird than they are.

"The term ‘shmup’ (a blend of “shoot ‘em up”) may sound disarmingly friendly but the genre itself is anything but. In part characterised by their brutal difficulty, shmups have to strike a delicate balance between frustration and reward whilst staving off the feeling of monotony that often plagues this well-defined genre. Recently released on Steam, Humans Must Answer by Sumom Games navigates this challenging landscape fairly well but not without sustaining some damage."
Dodge, shoot and explode across the Solar System as a crew of intelligent and dangerous chickens. As the pilot of The Golden Eagle, it’s your duty to keep Colonel Ram and Professor Bez safe as they squabble about ethics and who last used the toilet. Wage war against humanity as you battle your way towards the Sun to complete your mission.
