Cool little game! Took me a while to figure out how to score points. At the beginning I was finishing the game, but with almost 0 points. After I figured it out I got 450 points. Love the animations. Good work!

Great job! I really like the move/walking animation, the penguin walks like they mean business. Also the music is very catchy and the controls are responsive.

Fun little game - definitely captured the NES nostalgia! Love the sprites and animations - particularly the little flap the penguin does while jumping. Good work

Thank you for playing and for the feedback.

You recreated the "mode7" on a nokia. Maybe the next time, you can demake Super Mario Kart? :D 

Developer

That is a good idea 😅 I was thinking of making a Mode 7-type motorcycle game. Maybe next time.

Very cool! Definitely will have to check out the NES version on my emulator, as I haven't played it before. :) I loved the animation of the seals popping up the best!

Developer

Thank you. I had a lot of fun trying to recreate as much as possible.

I found the game very creative and matching the theme of the jam. the only points are the speed at which enemies appear. Maybe if the game was horizontal the player would have more reaction time.

I would definetely make in that perspective if I had to do it again. But I drew a lot of stuff already before seeing that the perspective is a bit small.

I won :D

Cool game! I never played the NES version, but I had fun playing this one. You really sold the effect of skating towards the horizon, it looks really good.

Overall good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing. This is the first demake I have ever made and I think it turned out alright.

What a nice little game!

The graphics are quite nice with a really cool faux-3D effect.

And the gameplay is simple but fun. I like that you can't control your penguin midair, that's a nice touch.

If I have one critique it's that the music get's a bit annyoing quite quickly, but you can always just mute your computer so that's not too much of a problem.

All in all, good job!

Thank you for playing my game. I was worried about the music but I didn’t have enough time to add a Settings menu 😅
