The studio behind Umurangi Generation has put out a Lovecraftian narrative walking sim with a penguin as its lead. Antarctica is the setting, and two human factions are fighting there; one of them wants to bring about destruction using the ancient beings. The player crosses the ice by waddling, sliding, and swimming, and meets penguins whose abilities, such as entering narrow spaces or swimming freely in the icy sea, change how the game progresses. The game supports Japanese and is available on PC via Steam at 10 percent off until October 31. A Nintendo Switch 2 release is planned.
