Penquins.

#1 This is actually extremely true. Penguins can be very evil, in fact there was a wallpaper for Neverwinter Nights... *finds it* here:

See? How evil do they look? There is also a Futurama episode with evil Penguins. So my game idea, is basically one with... er, evil penquins? There we go. I quite like the idea of the Penguin DM. What would the weapons be? There would have to be a melter gun, where you could melt the ice to make the player fall through, may be tricky to code tho.

I for one welcome our new penguin overlords. ;)

#2 Perfect idea for a Pengiun game, make a Windows launcher (Yes Windows, not window).

#3 In "Armed and Dangerous" are quite a number of penguins. They play an important role.

#4 Isn't there a flash game where you beat a penguin with a club to see how far you can make it go?

Thats probably why there so angry looking

Edit: and here it is n.ethz.ch/student/mkos/pinguin.swf

Caution: It is addicting in a sick penguin bashing way

#5 *laughs* What a great thread!

Has this got anything to do with Linux?

#6 @Craig:
Im pretty sure this thread will have something to do with Linux soon enough.

(I did make a crappy Windows joke up there, hehe)

#7 -Penquin RTS-

Have penquins riding whales for sea units. Or penquins riding polar bears as tanks.

Flying penquin air units (jetpacks!).

-Sports Game-

Some kind of penquin soccer or penquin basetball.

-Racing Game-

Penquins on little gokarts!

All hail the penquins.

#8 Penguin Racing Game?
TuxKart or TuxRacer

RTS/Puzzle?
Pingus

Other randomness?
xpenguins

I think Penguins need to be the next GiD theme.

#18 A penguin FPS? Hmmm.... With a game idea like this, it'd leave the door open for a bevy of cool items... Just imagine the vehicles...

An automatic gun that shoots cold carp, for example, or a cool little seal that shoots ice spikes for a vehicle, like a Ghost from Halo.

There could be a seagull for the air vehicle.

A multiplayer mode could be a CTF spin-off entitled Capture the Fish, where one team has to capture the other team's sturgeon, then get it back to his base (to the team's silverware and plates setup) where his team would have to cover the Fish-bearer while he ate it... Maybe...

#19 Robert - Dont forget the Polar Bear tank!

Watch out for the deadly walrus cannons though.

I just might make a penquin fps after illuminas out the door :)

#20 Oh, right. Silly me...

Walrus cannon, eh? Cool...

Wow, really? Kewl. I thought I really sucked at this stuff... HAH! Proved ME wrong!

Say, for a (yes, I'm ripping, but it's so fun) warthog-style vehicle (they're staples in all multiplayer-focused FPS's these days, y'know), you could have... You could have... Uhhhmmm... I... I really can't think-- WAIT! A NARWHAL! YES! one player could sit on the horn to drive (by tilting the horn back and forth), a passenger could ride on the fluke, and a icicle-shooting stationary gun could be mounted in the blowhole! BAM! Spice it uppa... Penguin!

*EDIT* I forgot, there could be another one man vehicle/cannon (Ghost style) in the game, like Bungie was going to do, but DIDN'T. *BURN!!!! BURN FOREVER!!!* That'd be cool. Like a...a...a sea lion, or something... no, that sucks. Maybe an eskimo.
