The long-awaited spinoff to Chess is finally here! In Adelie, your goal is to destroy all of your opponent's eggs while keeping your eggs protected. Every penguin has a unique move set, and can even be evolved to gain different moves and abilities! Below is an image containing each penguin's move set and evolution path for your convenience.
-
Each penguin may move using the arrows indicated by the green box and may kill using the arrows indicated by the red box.
-
The distance each arrow goes is important! All moves have a limited range matching that in the image.
-
Evolve a penguin by moving it onto the same tile as an identical penguin. Evolving an Egguin allows you to choose one of the three evolution paths.
-
If an arrow is facing down and has a small shadow, this indicates that the move cannot be blocked by other pieces along the path.
-
The Pengineer has a special ability that makes its attacks ranged, allowing it to kill other pieces without moving, as long as it has a line of sight.
-
The Flying Penguins divebombs create a devastating shockwave. Opponents pieces on a tile marked with an
X
will be killed if the Flying Penguin lands directly next to them. - The color of the cursor indicates which players move it currently is!
This cart will more than likely be no longer updated, as I will be doing a complete rewrite of the underlying system, although this may take a while
@dw817 yes it is 2-player, but both players use the same keys. the current color of the cursor indicates which player's turn it is
@Tatery1 sorry for such a late reply, it seems an update to PICO-8 had changed the way sub
works, but I have now updated the cartridge and everything should now be working as it used to!
