I put this game on all my kids phones..lol... I'm even promoting it in the push notifications of my own apps on the market. :)

That's amazing, thank you very much!

Nice penguin! You are really missing a short tutorial in game. Short label with 'tilt to move' would probably be sufficient. Also one time when ive started the game, half of the screen was black.

Thanks for the feedback. There is a small tutorial already, but may not be clear enough. If you stay on the top level for a few seconds a little icon will appear showing you the controls.
The black screen is strange... which device are you using, and does it happen often or was it just the once?
Cheers.

Super Penguin is now available on the Amazon App Store. It should also work on Kindles, but I don't have one to test it with.

Working on the next update for Super Penguin!

I want to add new levels; as well as a new shop for each level.
I'm thinking that for each level, you start new as a normal penguin and have to upgrade again - but the upgrades will be different for each level.

A few level ideas:
- Castle level (unlocks when you reach 2000m in the 1st level)
- Halloween level (unlocked for a few weeks during halloween)
- Space(?) level (unlocks when you beat the boss in the Castle level)
- Christmas level (unlocked for a few weeks during christmas)

What do you guys think?
Not going to add all the levels at once, I'll add each one with each new update. Starting with the Castle level within the next week (hopefully)

Thanks,
Will

Hey all, Super Penguin was recently updated to v1.2.5!
The new update adds 2 new episodes, each with their own style, enemies, obstacles, upgrades and more!
There's also a new control scheme to try out, and more!

Also, here's a new trailer showcasing one of the new episodes, the Castle:

The 2nd new episode is a Halloween themed episode which is unlocked by playing the game during October or November, so try it soon to permanently unlock it!

Thank you, good night, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN! ;)

Hi all,

We now have a new trailer for Super Penguin! (check the first post to watch) this time using Adobe After Effects so it's much more... premium.

v1.3 will be live later today
This version adds 1 new episode (unlocked by playing any time during December) with new enemies, improved graphics on all episodes, a new shop with additional powerups & upgrades, and a Christmas hat!

Thanks,
Will
