Smack the Penguin

Post by Tsyroc »

Bat the Penguin


Can you beat this:

:twisted:


Hint: You want to connect with the Penguin so it flys as far as possible through the air but still hits the ground at such an angle that it skips and slides along. The pure air shots, while fun, end up with the Penguin nose planting into the ground.

Yes. :P It's been posted before in a couple of forms as well, at best, I got 323.1, but my dad's mate claimed 350. :mrgreen:

In that other one the Yeti sure gets some power into those shots.

It also seem to work better to send the Penguin flying instead of skipping across the ground like on the one I posted.

Definately get more distance on the one posted by Lagmonster. :D

Hopefully you read the rest of the post and realized that the second picture is from the game Lagmonster posted the link for. The penguin flys a lot further through the air in that one. You actually have to wait for him to finally drop back onto the screen. :D

The 200 exactly or that in combination with the penguin's excellent face plant followed by the the positioning of the scoring flag? :)

350? Wow. Everyone else seems to be topping out just below 325. Including me. I wonder if there's a trick, or just way too much free time :D

Could be slightly different versions, I've seen resized versions and we've seen ones with different speeds, it could be someone was just playing around with the version we got sent. But then, it could also be too much free time. :)

I'm currently capping out at 323.4 :)
