Presentation

It's not easy being a sun-loving penguin when you live at the North Pole, where the days and nights each last 6 months. In this 2D platform game, help a tiny penguin escape the night and get closer to the warmth of the sun and follow him into an atmospheric and cartoon-like adventure! 

He  will have to escape the night and run, fly and float towards the sun while avoiding yetis, UFOs and any other obstacle that might cross his path. Who knows, perhaps our little friend will get to meet the sun in person and finally achieve his dream tan at the end of this quest? 

NOTE: The game runs much better if downloaded than in browser.

Controls 

  • Move with AD - (QD on azerty)
  • Jump with W - (Z on azerty)

I can't jump. I pressed the W key, but I couldn't jump.

EDIT: Turns out that the jump button is assigned to Z, even on a WASD eyeboard. Will you patch this, please?

Hi! Sorry for the late update, this was patched some time ago. Now the game should be playable with any kind of keyboard.
