We continue the saga of games featuring protagonists Tux, the mythical penguin Linux mascot. Tux is in fact one of the most used characters in the community Open source to create video games. Let's think about SuperTuxKart, SuperTux or the protagonist of several games featured within GCompris. Tux Rider is no exception and will allow you to guide the cute Tux on various snowy routes!

Tux Rider is a very simple and fun game available exclusively for Android. The aim of the game is to get to the end of the various pre-established paths in the shortest time while also taking as many fish as possible. There are currently nine different routes and probably no more will be added because the project has been on hold for a couple of years and can probably be considered concluded.

Tux Rider: The Levels

  • Frozen River, a frozen river to slide on;
  • Bunny Hill, a very quick and quick night route to complete;
  • Twisty Slope, we return during the day on this almost straight line which is very fast and fun;
  • Bumpy Ride, full of hills to jump on and have fun;
  • Flying Penguins, a semi-straight where you will go very fast, you will have to avoid gigantic columns of ice and above all you will be closed between two very high frozen walls;
  • Ski Jump, the name is a program. It's a completely straight track where you will find yourself making a gigantic jump. Perhaps the shortest runway;
  • Half Pipe, the only one where there is a countdown. Will you be able to reach the end before time?
  • Off slope skiing, one of the most difficult: you won't have a real trail to follow but you should only follow your instinct!
  • In search of vodka, last runway and it's nocturnal. Difficult, full of curves and spikes (we didn't find the vodka).

To play there are no buttons but you will have to use your smartphone as a steering wheel. By tilting it forward you will accelerate, by tilting it towards you you will slow down and to turn you will have to tilt it to the left or right. Who knows if, being Open source 1, sooner or later someone else will take it back to create new levels!

Have fun, as always we leave you below the references to download it.
