Now available on Linux

How could a penguin game not be available on Linux? Well, now it is, natively, in a snap of fingers, thanks to OpenGL & cross platform audio/input libraries. Feel free to try this new version, and report any bugs in the forums. I've only tested it on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, so there may be bugs on other Linux platforms.

Series 4

To celebrate Steam sales and the arrival of new players, new content is being added to the game. The penguin will now explore caves filled with pandas. New arrows go in reverse direction instead of rotating. If you bought the game, don't forget to leave a review, I read all of them. Gross sales $410/$1000. This milestone is required to unlock advanced Steam features, such as trading cards, profile features, and remove the limit of 100 achievements. Currently, the story is still To be continued. Eventually, the game will have an ending. IQ values are spread over the new levels and readjusted automatically on each update.

Series 2 + Level Editor

Hello, Thank you for being an early supporter. As promised, I am upgrading my development tools to add a massive amount of content to the game. After the dungeon, the penguin will now have to explore a forest. Each serie is a new environment with unique new items and rules. Due to the difficulty of certain levels, it is not required to finish a serie to play the next one, only a fixed IQ level is required. I have also designed a level editing UI, that is now part of the game. How many series will there be? Undecided. Probably until your IQ is decent. To support the game, please leave a review on the store page, or feedback in the Steam discussions forum.

  • Synopsis

    The penguin was cruelly taken away from his native land, separated from his family, and locked up inside a dungeon...
    Now he is trying to return to the ice floe to find his loved ones again...
    However, he is not sufficiently smart to solve the puzzles on his way home ...

    Rules

    You have to place objects correctly to help the penguin safely reach the exit.
    There could be multiple correct solutions.
    A correct solution is always easy to verify but may be difficult to find, unless P is equal to NP.
