Interesting idea. The colliders in general were very sticky which was a little tedious.

This is a very cute looking game. I love the graphics and the animation. 

Submitted

nice and clean assets, calm atmosphere, really enjoyed playing it

Insanely cute game that I'm a big fan of some aspects of, especially in its presentation, with the charming, adorable penguins and audio giving it all a sense of childlike wonder. The game also fits the theme really nicely, with using the penguins as the way to attack the polar bears being a nice way to tie the following mechanic into more aspects of the gameplay. The main issue I had was in regards to how the penguins would get stuck on everything to the point where I couldn't actually finish the game because I got impatient, but other than that it was a nice little game that with some polish could really flourish.

So cute lol, the only problem I see is with the colliders they fill too big and not fitting the player size

Submitted

Man a penguin game was on my brainstorming list but I couldn't come up with something compelling. You nailed it. It's super cute and fun and chilled. Love it!

Submitted

Cute charater's design :)

Submitted

I really like your game! The penguins are so cute.

Submitted

This game is so adorable. It really lighten my mood up. After having a bad day, this game definitely soothe my mood. The audio is also very calming. Nice work! :)

Cute game, the army of penguins :)

Sorry, the game doesn't seem to be running. It gets stuck on the main menu - the start button doesn't do anything. Tried restarting twice. 

Music and art style seem to be cool though,

Developer

Sorry about that. You might have to walk around on it a bit the colider is fairly small.

This was a really cute game I had fun waddling around with an army of penguins, I saw you video on the game and I couldn't wait to play it

Developer

Thank you for playing. I hope you had fun. 

Submitted

The penguins get stuck on objects easily, i guess that's what happens when 100 of them are following you lol

Submitted

This was really cute- Very peaceful to walk around the ice and hang with penguins- it feels great for the theme. On a mac download I did have some trouble completing as I only have one mouse button. Good feelings overall, nicely done.

Submitted

Very cute art and matching music.

Submitted

This game is cuutttee. I enjoyed amassing my army of penguins to shoot at will!!!! My main problem was that once you was surrounded by penguins it got really hard to move around. Great job overall!! :)

I enjoyed playing through the game even though I wasn't able to finish it. I liked the overall artstyle and atmosphere of the game, especially the cute penguins.

Making the penguins follow you is a bit troublesome. It's better to leave them behind and later mass teleport them to you by shooting :P

I suppose I need to bring all the penguins to the blue spot but It does not seem to affect the counter. Is it a timer? Would be nice to have some indication of how many penguins there are left.

Developer

Sorry about that. I not sure what was going wrong. If you press f when penguins are in the blue area it should remove them from overall 128. But if counter is not working properly I don't know. Thank you for playing. 

Submitted

Fun game, but a bit tedious to beat. I really like the art though

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing it the whole way through. I know I played it a few times.  I definitely didn't find the balance. the test area where you could spawn infinite penguins was way more fun. 

Submitted

Fun game, but a bit tedious to beat. I really like the art though

Submitted

I saw penguins on the title and I cliked inmediatly lmao The graphics are so wholesome! and the penguin design is great, I loved shooting them around. Great work!
