Game: Spaced Penguin

[Spaced Penguin]I’ve now been awake for over 36 hours – too tired and busy to do much blogging, but I did find a Shockwave flash game which helped me concentrate when I needed to…

Spaced Penguin is a little (93k) game where you’ve got to help Kevin the Penguin get back to his spaceship using the highly advanced GP S(Giant Penguin Slingshot/Catapult). Click on Kevin and hold down your mouse button to ‘steer’ him, pull back to set his velocity and then let him go. The further he travels to get to his spaceship (and the more ‘worm holes’ he passes over) the higher your score – but be careful of the planets that attract you with their gravity.

I quite like it when you can go in orbit around a planet and make those nice little spiral pictures that you used to make when you were a little kid with a pencil and two ‘cogged’ wheels over a piece of paper.

My highest score (so far) is 497,815. Anybody beat that yet or have you left Kevin to be Lost In Space? But saying that – WTF is a penguin doing in the depths of space anyway? Flibblepenguin indeed!
