Cosmic horror, through the eyes of a penguin. Rival human factions have come to your home in the Antarctic, seeking an ancient and inconceiv
The year is 1939, and the Nazis and Kaitiaki are making their way into the deep Antarctic to answer the call of an impossibly ancient being. One group seeks to extract this inconceivable power for its own destructive means. The other, as it has been doing for generations, hopes to return it to its slumber for another hundred years.
A faithful re-imagining of H.P. Lovecraft through the eyes of a penguin. Developed by Origame Digital, creators of Umurangi Generation, published by Fellow Traveller (1000xRESIST), and narrated by Lenval Brown.
(that would be the narrator of disco elysium, by the way).
hopefully i don't have to pitch it more than this - you have played umurangi generation, right? the game that won awards for "best narrative", despite not having a single spoken word of dialogue?
do you like h.p. lovecraft adaptations? how about ones that reckon with the fact he was a racist shithead? what about john carpenter's the thing? what about games where you get to be a cute little penguin running around the antarctic and nothing bad happens ever?
penguin colony has a demo, and it's short (i think it took us about an hour, but you can explore or not explore to your hearts content).
please. please give it a shot. you have no fucking idea how excited i am for this game (if you played umurangi, especially it's DLC, then you can understand why). don't even watch the trailers, seriously - just check out the demo first.
(AND THEN IF YOU HAVEN'T, GO PLAY UMURANGI GENERATION. I AM SERIOUS.)
