Love it!! no other words needed, PENGUIN GO BOOM!!

Reminds me of old internet games! 
Fun concept, few notes!
1 - Give the player the speed this game deserves! Bumps and obstacles are fine, but I found it really hard to get a nice groove going. Youre almost there!
2 - Add progress bars, let the player know how far (or close) the orca is
3 - Tutorial says flat ground, my penguin could reset anywhere. I like the idea of flat ground, but then you gotta provide some
4 - I say remove obstacles and rely on the player mismanaging their jumps to get slowed down
5 - On airborn, zoom out, give the player vision of the landscape. As they descend, zoom back in. 

Love the game! Love the tie to count down!

Also here to support the fellow penguins 🐧(˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)ゞGame looks super polished and felt really good. Great work!

I'm here to support my fellow penguins! This is a cute little game! It'd have been very easy to just have the countdown go to zero and end the game, but letting the player stop and recharge the bomb added a lot more interest! Good work!

i won! which i really wasn’t expecting. not because i don’t think i am amazing at the game, which i am, it’s just abnormal to win in a game like this. i had a great time, and i will play any game featuring a penguin

Cool game!  My best was 11787.  I really like the art and how smooth and satisfying the sliding feels.

Ahahah it was very cute. I loved the ending.

Very nice art and sound design. I also liked the overall gameplay even though I have to say that the orca didn't chase me for at least 90% of time!
I think it was a bug because I wasn't really going very fast for a while. It took me time to get used to the momentum, but after I did it was very fun.

Good job!

"🤔 if I can stop moving to reset the timer why don't I do that every time it gets vaguely low... AARGH THERE'S AN ORCA"

Physics felt a little bit weird at times but I still managed to pull off some sick jumps. Perhaps reduce the acceleration in the air in favour of faster acceleration while sliding down slopes?
