Pocket Penguin DX ( ポケットペンギン): A Retro Style Adventure

This is a cool, adorable, charming platformer that becomes quite challenging in the last level. It controls well, the music is awesome, and it emulates the game boy feel perfectly. The main mechanic is your bombs are used as makeshift platforms, and as your weapon. You have to manage them well, especially on bosses - because getting stuck in an area when your bombs are on cooldown is almost a sure death sentence. It's very engaging and I loved it. This is an easy recommendation for anyone, and especially if you like platformers.

I've been playing this game... AND I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT!!! This game really capture the feeling and the aesthetic of the Game Boy games.. so If you are a retro enthusiast... You'll love it.

Even if I didn't play 8 bits games on its time, with Pocket Penguin I can feel a very nostalgic vibe, somehow it remembers me of my childhood. Fun, entertaining and a real challenge!

Fun Gameboy like game that has a lot of charm and great pixel art. In my opinion, it would have been a lot more fun if it was made like Kirby's bomb powerup (throw bombs at enemies). This could of been a really good Kirby clone. Maybe make the Penguin have Kirby's bomb powerup in Pocket Penguin 2? Anyways, I'm still having fun playing it, and I'm happy I helped kickstart it :D

Really fun and cute game, if this existed on Gameboy when I was a kid, I'd have definitely owned it!

is a cute little game - however the price point is not something I would recommend due the simplicity of the gameplay and the amount the bugs. Achievements don't work and you cannot even exit the game through a menu, you need to alt+f4... kinda crazy.
