Nice music and graphics!

Definitely a Lemmings vibe, but a nice one! At first I spammed the pipe and ended up for a whole horde of dem birbs it was very chaotic (== fun xD)

Good job!

interesting idea, although it felt very buggy. reminds me a lot of lemmings, you should try and improve on the idea

I like the way how you make the tutorials by writing the instructions in the background of the gameplay. The visual effects of the explosion and camera shaking are engaging. The penions look very funny.

Thanks! My friend Joey Filemon at Hamstar Games did all of the artwork and most of the coding. He is a fantastic artist with a really unique style.

fun little unique game not sure if it intended but u can spam the pipe to spawn more birds. nice art and music was interesting

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, we've talked about only having a limited number of penguins come out, but we'll have to wait until later to implement a system where there's a limitation. We figured for the tutorial it would be fun to just spam the penguins and make multiple come out of the pipe. lol


Also, the title screen song is literally me just saying "penguin" multiple times, sampling it, then putting a beat over it. The other song during the tutorial is a squeaky toy I sampled and I thought it sounded somewhat like a penguin. I love composing music in unusual ways, so I really tried to make the game unique in that aspect. Thank you for playing it!
