Probably the cutest monster I've seen! The animations art style look good, though I found it a bit awkward to move with WASD and press X at the same time.

Looks great. Who knew penguins were evil.

Web link is not working and I don't have windows :(

Web link does not work. 'X' is an unfortunate combination with WASD. Otherwise good looking little game.

tuben999 2015-08-24 08:42

Fixed the web link it should now be working! :)

Pretty neat idea. Had an issue on the second level where it wouldn't let me through the door unless I was perfectly placed and in later levels a single bullet hit multiple times destroying my health instantly.

WOW, awesome graphic and animation, i have very good gaming experience. There is a certain level where i cant pass through the ending portal.

like the graphic style!

I think that it was the contrast between the cuteness of the penguin and the genuine menace it orchestrated that made this such a humourous mix. Great work! 5/5 Graphics!

Animations and art style are really nice. The controls feel really snappy and good especially together with the sounds. Kind of a nuclear throne vibe to it and I like it. It is hard. Some upgrades or health regeneration would be nice :)

+10 great game and gameplay. Good job

@MAnimal yes the portal bugs sometimes, made the mistake of changing how the colliders work at the last hours :D

Gorgeous pixel art work/animation, gorgeous effects, really looks great.

The game didn't feel really interesting, wasn't satisfying marching up to gun-toting dudes to eat them, most of the time you're basically forced to eat a few shots, and if you don't, you're just spending a ton of time wandering left and right and... it just wasn't satisfying. If it were insta-kill there'd be some interest to die and come back quickly and see how many you can eat before dying, but because of the life-bar it just felt long and drawn out, and I'd lost interest super quickly.

Controls are awkward, but I could use the arrow keys, and that was fine.

Oh yes the door sometimes didn't register, had to wiggle around a lot.

PENGUINS!

Great idea to make a penguin the bad guy :) The game is replay fun but unfortunately there is a issue that makes it difficult to get out of the rooms.
I 'm really sad about it 'cause I really like your game.

Evil benguin!
Accidentally killed someone by pressing x because the world told me to :c

Great game. Liked the look and feel of it. Would have liked to have a few different enemy types (only got to level 7 so not sure if there are more after) Very polished looking though.

Nice idea good graphics and animations i also liked the audio good job :DD i love this game

powerspark 2015-08-30 06:36

Great graphics, but the door on level 7 wouldn't work.

rotpar 2015-08-30 07:06

Cute game! Really good looking and fun.

Real cute characters and animation

pixlwalkr 2015-09-08 16:15

Neat game with nice pixel art. Good job! :)

As others have said, X with WASD is a bit awkward. I couldn't enter the second blue portal. Other than that, nice feedback on things (screen shake, sounds etc).
