Overview

"Rise of the Penguins" is a 2D Side-Scrolling  Action-Platformer for Gameboy. The game is meant to be simple and linear but with some challenging enemies. The game is inspired by ghost n goblins and a bit of mega man.

Features

  • 6 levels with a variety of enemies in each level

  • 2 Extra Levels

  • Boss Rush Mode, Unlocked only after beating all 6 levels

  • 6 mini boss enemies and 8 boss enemies(including the 2 ks ones) and a final boss

  • 6 simple difficulty settings to adjust checkpoints to make the game harder or easier, with checkpoints resetting after a game over but modifiable through these settings.

  • Basic hud that shows the highscore, health and time remaining

  • Janky animations made by me

  • Minimal story with no text -but hoping the game is engaging enough to keep playing

Preparing for android release added a few more menus

I made it sort of look like a purple gameboy. I could make it so you change the color but we\'ll see. I mostly added the controls so you can remap the controls as well as making it look nicer the buttons.

  • main thing is getting the mobile controls ready for android though

KS Background Overhaul Done Rise of the Penguins GB



This includes the levels 1-6 and most of their backgrounds. does not include some of the boss backgrounds and the extras section and the 2 extra levels.

For the export changed it to using this godoboy extension and template and it only there wasn't a mac export so now there is only linux and windows export versions. Can just download the rom file or play on the browser if on mac.

  • For Context there was a small kickstarter to overhaul the backgrounds in the game. When i put it on steam in January it only had the first 2 levels done. Now it is all 6
  • Credit to Artist Michirin for excellent work!: https://michirin.itch.io/
  • And to the ks backers small community of 6 backers ty for support.
