## What is Pengo Pengi?

You are a penguin alone on a field of ice, and the alien worms are coming.

Slide a block of ice down a corridor and it will not stop until it hits
something. Time it right and that something is a worm.

THE BLOCKS ARE YOUR AMMUNITION

There is no way to make more ice. Every block on the board is one you were
given, and once it is gone it is gone. Shatter one and you get ten points.
Crush a worm with it and you get five hundred. Catch two in the same
slide and you get a thousand.

The enemies eat through the ice too, tunnelling toward you and taking your
weapons with them. So every level is a race: turn the board into kills
before they turn it into corridors.

LINE UP THE DIAMONDS

Three diamonds in a row stops the world. Everything freezes, the ice turns
colour, and for a few seconds the board is yours. Learning to build that
line while something is chasing you is the difference between surviving a
level and owning it.

CORNERED IS NOT BEATEN

Lean on the electric fence and it will discharge along the wall, stunning
anything pressed against it. It is the move you reach for when there is
nowhere left to run.

WHAT IS IN IT

20 hand-built levels, each one authored, not generated
Alien worms that hunt, lose your scent, and come back for you
Eggs that hatch into new enemies if you leave them too long
A time bonus that rewards finishing fast and a score that rewards
finishing well
An original soundtrack: one theme, seven variations, one for every mood
the ice can hold
Plays in portrait, one thumb, no account, no ads, no connection needed
A LOVE LETTER

This began as a tribute to a 1982 arcade cabinet and turned into a
years-long rebuild: every sprite redrawn, every timing re-derived by feel
until it played the way it is remembered rather than the way it was.

No ads. No tracking. Just the ice.
