Favourite game yet! Really nice graphics, reminds me of this one pengiun sliding game I used to play back on the CRT monitor PCs. The gameplay is great, and the reproduction is funny. My favourite part is how the ice breaks off. Could use some music, but hey, can't have it all.

Good graphics, but the penguins were hard to guide away from danger. Solid execution on the theme.

Great art style and overall vibe or idea. As mentioned the penguins are a bit hard to handle. Some music would have been a great finishing touch. I adore penguins and would love to see this one explored even further.

Best thing is: you completed the challenge. Good luck! All the best

It really fits the theme, I love penguins and this game was really fun, the fact that you could get hit by a missile was pretty funny :P

Amazing! I'm impressed... The gameplay is extremely fun, and I love how the penguins reproduce to give you a chance to survive longer. The increasing number of penguins, melting / breaking ice, ships and other obstacles work as great challenges to deal with! Good interpretation of the theme, very creative. The music, sound effects, and visuals are great too (I love the honk indicating a ship is coming). This is a great game, love it!

It was fun but it was quite hard to make the penguins go where I wanted. (There was music and sound when I played)

what a funky game, all my penguins are dead now though :(

seriousely, nice game, great idea, matches the theme perfectly, one thing i want to critizise though is that on the edges my penguins would get stuck every now and then, no idea why...

other than that, solid entry!

Very fun game. I didn't got controls at first time - i mean how mouse interacts with pinguins. I tought they follow mouse. Maybe it would be good concept connecting with destroying boxes. But it is very good game.

little funny game with great music. All but one pengu committed suicide so I did not have that much stress to keep everyone alive 😆 You added funny moments like the ship or the bomb to make it more exciting. Great entry

Nice Game, I really thought that boat was going to safe some, but that was not the plan, I enjoyed the pace and music, graphics were nice.
Controls might want to show a glow around the area the penguins are reacting, great otherwise!

Great game! Music, sound, art, and gameplay were all well done

Interesting mechanic of making the penguins react to the cursor for movement instead of a direct control, and props for not making it clunky. The nice gameplay almost ofuscate the pretty graphics and soundtrack. Oddly, what is supposed to be a stressful task of trying to keep them alive, which becemos progressively harder, turns to be a relaxing activity, due to the clean graphics and smooth music.

Can get a bit repetitive after a while, but had fun going through it, trying to save the penguins from global warming! Good job. Hate to see you had to get off before you saw the game on stream, You can go check the post stream at my channel! Good job!

Fun game! Loved the graphics, the concept and the execution :D
That boat though, just ploughing through the pinguins, just like real life :(

It takes a long time before it gets more difficult, but when you play it for the first time its just a treat!

Its just so funny when the game starts and you see that pinguin with its swagger :)
Lovely game!

Scored 23110! Really liked the game! The best this was the Music! Really liked the Music! Fun creative game and fitting for the theme! Would love to see melting ice 2! Thought the boat that came and destroyed the ice was ment for the Penguins to border yea… Other than that really creative idea! Amazing Graphics! Just a bit of lag in the end when there were so many Penguins! 5/5!

It's now that I understand that penguins are really stupid sometimes..
It was really fun ! Like the graphics and the mood ! The audio doesn't show the distress of the penguins but it makes the game more fun ! The theme is respected and the idea is great. In overall, it's great ! Really great job !

This reminded me of lemmings. Would be cool to see some of the mechanics from lemmings in there to help your penguins. Great job on the graphics too! Thanks for sharing your game with my stream awhile back. Your game was played around 0:55 into this vod: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/297885983
