Gamevil released a game called Air Penguin not too long ago on iOS that became a surprising hit on the App Store with gamers. After some time passing, and indeed it was mentioned that it would be coming to Android at some point, it has finally arrived for us to enjoy as well.

Developed around the use of tilt controls, something out of the ordinary for Gamevil and their usual retro RPG titles, Air Penguin has you controlling one of our favorite black and white flightless birds through Antarctica. You'll be tilting your device to avoid danger as your penguin glides and bounces through the icy lands and, occasionally, even flying? Well sort of. As much as a penguin can fly. You can tap on the screen to make your penguin flap it's wings to get a little bit of air time.

Features:

  • MULTI-DIRECTIONAL TILT CONTROL GAMEPLAY - Tilt Air Penguin in all directions to guide him safely through the Antarctic
  • TWO DIFFERENT MODES FOR DOUBLE THE FUN - Campaign through 125 stages in Story Mode or see how far you can go in Survival Mode
  • ENCOUNTER SEA CREATURES AND WEAVE PAST HAZARDS - Hitch a lift on a turtle's back, swerve past angry sharks and watch out for thin ice
  • COLLECT ITEMS AND UNLOCK SPECIAL BOOSTS - Acquire fish to use special features and abilities to help you on your way
  • CUTE GRAPHICS OPTIMIZED FOR HI-RES DISPLAY - Experience the adorable world of Air Penguin unfold in hi-res graphics

 

If you are in the market for a new, unique game to play that is, unfortunately if you are at work, highly addictive at times as well, you may want to check this title from Gamevil out. It's a break from their usual type of games but it's a good one nonetheless. it is available as a full free download on the Android Market.
