Some time ago i made a little post asking for ideas for a new Pengu game, and it was actually my intention to finish and release one this December, both as a shorter demo here on Newgrounds, and a fully fledged release to be bought on steam!?!
But sadly reality set in, and it's not feasable, and also releasing a winter game outside of winter doesn't make sense, so because of that, i'll have to postpone it to next year. Where i really hope i can achieve my goal in a way that i'm proud of.
For funsies, though i can share a lot of the progress we did make.
This next game is taking heavy inspiration from Sonic, meaning loops and cool gimmicks, some of which can be seen below.
As you can see it's not for a lack of features that I'm postponing it.
Most of the base is actually there. Way more time consuming than that, turned out to be level design and graphics.
Pengu goes so fast that the levels have to be super duper big to compensate, and whilst i have made levels before, it proved to still be very difficult for me, so it's something i have to rethink come next year to do it correctly.
As a close, i am excited to revisit Pengu's big game again sometime next year, and i hope you'll support us when it happens. Also a very special epic thanks to @chocoholicmonkey whose always there helping me with Pengu, and also did the backgrounds in these tiny gifs, they're also a key part in figuring out the story and style. They're very cool go follow : - )
Merry Christmas, from me and Pengu
