ABOUT THE GAME Dive into a retro adventure that will transport you back to the golden days of handheld consoles. Pocket Penguin isn’t just a game—it’s an emotional journey that reminds you that even in the toughest times, courage and determination can lead you home. Meet Pichi, a small blue penguin who, thanks to his agility and swimming skills, must face various challenges. From scorching dunes to vibrant coral reefs, travel to the lair of the fearsome pirate captain Nanuk the Polar Bear, rescue your family, and return home a tiny hero. With its pixelated aesthetic, classic gameplay, and a soundtrack that pays homage to the Game Boy, Pocket Penguin captures the magic of the games that defined our childhood—but with fresh mechanics and a story that will hook you from the first minute. KEY FEATURES Remember those old-school games, simple on the surface but deeply challenging? Pocket Penguin follows the same philosophy with a clear premise: 'Use bombs to attack. Use bombs to jump.' With just two buttons, every move counts, and precision will be key to overcoming obstacles, solving puzzles, and defeating enemies. Retro-inspired art and music: Every sprite, every melody is crafted to evoke Game Boy nostalgia—even using its original sound chip to compose authentic tracks that’ll make you feel like you’re holding the console in your hands. NEW AND EXCITING FEATURES Six unique worlds, 23 different stages. Three difficulty modes tailored to your playstyle: Each mode offers a distinct experience—even the stages change! 20 color modes: Choose between the classic Game Boy green or vibe with unique Super Game Boy palettes. Brand-new powerful GBC mode: A colorful world with new effects. Borders: Want to stylize your experience? Decorate your screen with 8 different borders. Minigames and surprises: Beyond the main adventure, discover alternate challenges to test your skills. Reward system: Enemies and hidden objects hold coins, food, and other treasures to trade at Walrus’s Shop—but spend wisely! Multi-language support. And much more!
