The heart of the studio: a real-time tactics game, a base-building management sim and a special-operations tactics game, built for desktop. All three are in development, the kind of games I always wanted to make. Follow along and get a heads-up the moment they are playable.

DetailsI'm Jack Mustard, and Tactical Chicken Studios is just me, building the games I actually play: real-time tactics, base-builders and management sims. I have been a gamer my whole life, hooked on real-time strategy, simulators and anything military, and I started making my own games in 2020. Section Command leads; the other desktop games are in the works, and the Arcade has free, quick-play games to dig into while they cook.
One click, no install and no paywall: Section Command's playtest and Charlie Foxtrot Company are playable right now.
