Penguins are pick ups and hazards in Snow Drift. Penguins are commonly encountered as pick ups which grant points upon being knocked over, but are also encountered as missiles shot from the guns of foxes, and also as grenades thrown by the polar bear. Penguins are used for a variety of things in Snow Drift, some variations not being able to be knocked out, this page being about the Pick Up.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Penguins appear small and pod shaped, with two small arms, orange feet and beak, and two blue beady eyes.
Game information[edit | edit source]
Snow Drift[edit | edit source]
Penguins stand on the track and don't do anything. When touched, they are knocked off the track and the yeti gains ten points. Many of them are littered across the track for unknown reasons, and when hit, will turn in the air and fall off the screen.
They are most likely young penguins, having to be protected by the emperor penguins from attack, which is probably the explanation to emperor penguins are usually found near a lot of penguins.
Nitrome Must Die[edit | edit source]
- Main Article: Gun (Nitrome Must Die)#Penguin
Penguins appear as a weapon in Nitrome Must Die. When the weapon is obtained, firing it will fire a Snow Drift penguin that will slide on its belly, all the way to the wall of the screen, where it will fall off the screen. They are seen in one of the first challenge levels.
Other appearances[edit | edit source]
- Winter skin - Many penguins are seen, sometimes next to an emperor penguin
- Party skin - A penguin appears next to the yeti
- Snowman skin - Many penguins appear, some near the emperor penguin. One is seen to have fallen in love with an Avalanche penguin
- Twitter advertisement - One penguin appears standing, two are being knocked over, and one is fishing among other Nitrome birds
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Penguins shot from the penguin gun in Nitrome Must Die make the same noise that emperor penguins make when they are killed.
