SuperTux

SuperTux is a 2D sidescrolling platformer starring Tux, a penguin on a quest to rescue Penny from Nolok. The journey takes him through the Icy Island and the Rooted Forest.

Run, jump, and solve platforming puzzles while dealing with enemies by stomping them, striking from below, or throwing objects. Collect power-ups, and use abilities such as backflipping and swimming to navigate the levels.

The main adventure includes levels, castles, and boss fights. Additional community levels and add-ons offer more places to explore, while a level editor lets players create and share their own stages.

Players often enjoy SuperTux as a nostalgic, approachable take on classic 2D platforming, with its music and level editor also drawing praise. Some reviews criticize difficult or frustrating stages, while opinions differ on changes to the presentation and soundtrack across versions; a few also report bugs or launch trouble.
