SuperTux is a classic side-scrolling jump-and-run game, free and open source and made by its community since 2003. Tux and Penny are having a picnic on the ice fields of Antarctica when the villain Nolok kidnaps Penny, and Tux sets off across the land to rescue her from Nolok's fortress.
This web version has the two story worlds, Icy Island and Rooted Forest, with almost sixty levels on their world maps. You stomp on enemies, bump blocks from below, throw objects, and collect power-ups such as the fire flower and ice flower, with boss fights and secret areas along the way. The game opens on its own page and plays with a keyboard or with the on-screen gamepad on phones and tablets.
