Simple idea but the game is pretty fun.
The style is great, we can easily identify our good friend Donny Don =3
It would have been nice to had an other option to deny Don (like one using money) because I ended up turning arround the island collecting coins without using the pinguin.
Or maybe darken the screen over time du to some pollutions clouds to stick with the theme (just kidding I know, it is pretty hard to do that with pico8).
Nice entry !
Thanks for playing! Oh, using money to bribe Don would have been a great idea! =D
Nice! Pretty, challenging with very good gameplay. Well done!

Nice work! Great SFX and execution of a simple but fun idea. I enjoyed the political message and poking fun at Don too :)
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Little bit of politics :) Actually, this is a game I could completely imagine playing in 1983 or so; escape the enemy, collect the tokens. It's nicely implemented for what it is, and I like the "Bad Don" frame around it. However, when you (inevitably) run into "Don" (who is very recognisably drawn given the few pixels there are to work with) and get the "we're doomed" screen, there doesn't seem to be a way to restart? One has to reset the Pico console. Maybe this is some subtle message (after all, when you've destroyed the environment and are doomed, you can't undo it or start over) but it's on balance more annoying than it should be :-)
Thanks for your feedback! You are correct. I chose to have no restart option for that very reason. Totally understand that it is frustrating to try again, and while I apologize for that, I think it gets the point across. I wanted to get some text in there saying something like "no replays, there's only one planet", but couldn't fit it in with 64 pixels :P
Hahaha, the cover sells the game pretty good. The art is very nice. Damn Don gets me everytime, I guess we're doomed.
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you like the art. If I had more time I would have tweaked the difficulty a bit more than I did. Something I'll keep working on.
