Not a complex game, but a good game. I enjoyed punching the Pengu Mafia while hoarding all the fish.
As for what you could improve, maybe add parallax to the background or make entirely new sprites for the **Stronger** Pingu Mafia? Those are just time-sinks though.
I think you nailed the gameplay; there was no point where I was bored or panicked. Or rather, by the time I started to get bored, I won... so you must have play-tested that ending point very well indeed.
Just as a heads up, all your links lead to the same windows build :(
Really fun still laughing at turbo Pengu punch

Fun! I laughed pretty hard at the way the penguins flew off screen.
To answer your feedback on Tenant Chaos, there were penalties for ignoring your tenants too much. They would eventually move out, having trashed the place and charging you for the damages to the room immediately. I should have made that happen more frequently. I'll keep that in mind!

@binaryunit Oops! Thanks for pointing that out. The mac and Linux builds should now be accessible! @Siege Okay, thanks for the feedback-feedback! :P
I like it. Graphics were good (excepy, are you playing as a rhino in a parka?) I loved the comedic way the penguins flew off the screen. I think it wouldve been cool to have some sort of bonus for capturing multiple fish.
Graphics were good! I like it!

I really loved the way the penguins were trhown away when you punch them, very satisfying! One thing is that maybe the yellow fish could be more valuable, but move faster, or be slower to pull out from the water

Very good, this method of punch penguins legally its unique ;)
Cool and Solid entry! when you get more fish, you face the harder enemy. If there is some kind of animation of enemy's attack, that will be more comfortable to play with!
Glad I punched the crap out of the penguins and won.
