The History Behind Creation of ePingu

Original game was developed in 2006 as a student project for Linux programming classes. Since a penguin is a symbol of Linux it was chosen to be the main character. Simple 3D beach scene was developed earlier as a 3D modeling practice and came handy. There was no story behind the game.

Recently while searching for an idea for an iPhone application I stumbled on this old project. Game graphics looked old and gawky so everything was redrawn by hand. The only thing that remains intact is water and sun light. Game play was tweaked up a little but basically it remained the same.

The game is pretty simplistic, but there are some ideas so I hope this game will have a nice sequel.
