Alfred Chicken is an action game developed by Twilight Games and published by Mindscape. In the game, you play as the titular character. You must play through several levels and save Billy Egg and his friends from the evil Meka Chickens.

The Amiga version is considerably the best version, as it features the best graphics and sound out of all the platforms. There was also a version released for the CD32.

Music

David Whittaker returns to arrange his soundtrack the had originally (allegedly) written for the Game Boy version. There is also an alternate version of the title music, but it is unknown whether the song is used or not. It contains interesting instrumentation.

The music fits the zany theme of the game, but also features Whittaker's style of repeating certain phrases in a different key. This could be due to a number of factors, but also because Whittaker had to type the music in MC68000 assembly machine code.

The recording was made in JAM For Windows.
