Casual & Style guide #811
King Bacon vs Vegans is a village-defense shooter: your home is attacked by vegans and the only way to stop them is to shoot them all as they approach — while remembering to avoid the chickens. The publisher's own advice is blunt: don't hesitate, protect your village.
Open the gameThe gist
Your home is under attack, and the game's answer is a shooter: take down the vegans as they approach and avoid the chickens. It is a defend-and-shoot setup in which the birds are not part of the threat you should be firing at.
What you're after
Protect the village by stopping the approaching vegans while leaving the chickens alone. The publisher stresses not hesitating, so the balance is speed on the attackers and restraint around the birds.
How to steer
The publisher does not document the controls, so expect the opening moments to show you how aiming and firing work. The part you can plan in advance is target choice: vegans yes, chickens no.
Your first minute
Spend the opening moments learning to tell the two kinds of figures apart before firing at anything. Watch how the attackers approach, then take the nearest vegan first — that is the whole discipline in one pass.
A gentle start
Focus on one attacker at a time and keep your fire off the chickens. Clearing the nearest vegan before the crowd closes in is the reliable first step, and it buys you room to learn the pacing.
Where it wobbles
The typical failure is shooting in a hurry and clipping a chicken in the crowd. The publisher's own warning — remember to avoid the chickens — is the line to respect, so pause your aim whenever a bird is near your target.
When you're stuck
If attackers keep getting through, stop trying to cover everything at once and defend the closest gap. One clean kill beats three rushed shots that hit nothing useful.
From the desk
The confirmed setup is short: attackers approach, you shoot the vegans, you avoid the chickens, and hesitation is the enemy. Weapons, rounds, and scoring are not described by the publisher, so the guide stays with that confirmed loop.
First-timer questions
The publisher says to avoid them — they are not the enemy to shoot. Keep your fire on the vegans and let the birds pass.
The publisher's advice is not to hesitate: shoot the approaching vegans. Picking the nearest attacker first keeps the crowd from piling up at your door.
The publisher's description does not specify rounds, levels, or scoring, so we are keeping to the confirmed loop: approach, shoot the vegans, avoid the chickens, protect the village.
