Penguin KnightView game page

With the right imagination, a penguin can be a knight, a candy cane a sword, and a wish a reality.

Wow very nice game for 3 days! 

I think i collected all my toy-firends, is there a boss or an end-screen?

Developer (3 edits)

Hey devtev, thanks for playing! Yes, there is a boss and an ending, but we unintentionally hid it really well. If you go into the ornament/letter blocks room area where you find Lori (the Barbie), on the bottom-right screen of that area, there is a gap in the glass wall that you can go through. We had a big door to put there, but we ran out of time to add it to the game D: Anyway, that is how you get into "Ra'Sei Ving" where you can fight a dragon! Let us know how it goes if you try it out. :D

I love the NES type style game with the awesome art and music! Definitely impressive to see with what people can do with such short time. Great job!

Thanks so much, tymakesgames! We're so glad you enjoyed our game. We had fun making it!

Love the Zelda-like gameplay and the cozy winter vibes! It was fun to find all my friends and beat the boss. There were a few points without music which it would be nice to have music there, but overall really nice and very impressive for a 3 day game jam!

Developer(+1)

Hey shadowsora, thanks for playing and for reporting this music issue! We are glad you had fun finding your friends, and that you were able to beat our spicy dragon boi :D 

Great game! It has a cozy atmosphere with a really cute artstyle, the story is sweet and the protagonist is absolutely adorable~

Developer

Thanks, Alectoruby! We're so glad you enjoyed our game. I'm so happy with how our lil penguin boi turned out <3

Wow, this game has an insane amount of polish for a jam game, well done!! I loved how cute everything was and how the main theme revolved around friendship. I also liked the contrast between the cold outside and the warm inside of the tavern. There was a surprising amount of dialogue to discover in the tavern as well! Yeah, the enemies aren't that much of a threat and attacking feels a bit mushy, but I can forgive it as they fit well into the story and I felt that discovering your friends was the main goal of the quest. Well done all! Thanks so much for participating in the jam!

Developer

Thank you so much for this detailed feedback! I'm so stoked about how this game came together, especially because many of us on the team hadn't worked together before. We're glad you enjoyed our game, and thank you for hosting :)

I really love this game! Who knew cute, fluffy penguins could work so well with killer, robot T-rex's. The music is great along with the overall vibes. Also I really like the penguins design :)

Developer

Yay, thanks for playing, Kebaboo! I'm so pleased with how the penguin turned out, and I'm glad you like its design, too. Making the little t-rex characters was also tons of fun. I'm glad you think they fit well in the game world together!

The game is very good. It is clear that a lot of work and heart has been put into it. I especially like the grandmother, who exudes grandmotherly love. If you want to continue the development of this game, a more engaging combat model would be needed (maybe turn-based combat with other heroes that we collect during the game). Overall, a very well-made game that maintains a high level.

Developer

Thank you for playing and commenting, Wizard Walter :) I love your idea for turn-based combat with the friends collected during the game. It would be cool to incorporate them back into the game world somehow.

a really cute zelda style adventure with penguin

The art style here is quite cute,

And the music is realy cozy and chill too.

The gameplay is fun. you go around with your trusty sword and make friends to get buff

I had a little hard time find a dragon for a while because I didn't notice the missing fence in the corner of the blocks area.

I like how each character have a lot of dialogue, and you can talk to them at the bonfire.

Developer

Thanks so much for playing, Chavafei! We appreciate your feedback. If we update, we'll definitely make it more clear how to enter the boss area (that wasn't intended to be a difficult part of the game lol). We have a few assets that will help that didn't quite make it in before the end of the jam. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the dialogue also!

Submitted

Nice work! I enjoyed the cute art and cozy vibes but what I loved the most was the characters. They were well-written and designed!

The game is really beautiful. The gameplay is nice. But the highlight is probably the ending and the story. The game really fit both themes really well. Great game.

Our narrative designer really outdid herself. Thanks for your feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the gameplay and story.

The game is really beautiful. And the music gives it that cozy ambience that makes it so much fun to play.

I got stuck between trees forever between the A C boxes thing, and I got into a black screen every time I clicked on esc>menu>start but the art and music are very cute. I love Mr. Maple lmao

Developer

Oops, sorry for trapping you! Thanks for this report and for playing our game. We love Mr. Maple, too! <3

Cozy Art and Music.  I sometimes got hit while entering a room, which was a bit unfair

Developer

Thanks for the comments, Detective Duck! We're sorry for the enemy ambushes. It'll be on our list if we update :)
