This week's coordinated content theme is 'Penguins.' I've been fascinated with/slight fixated on penguins for years (I swear, though, before the advent of March of the Penguins). So I wanted to do something grand for today's post.

Alas, though, nothing specific came to me until Tuesday night, when I envisioned a short, furious action platformer game featuring a badass sword-wielding penguin. These things take more than the eight hours I could've scrapped together to work on it, though. Still, I did some pixel art of what the main character might end up looking like:



Though I'm thinking instead of a wacky pink sword, I might give him a goofy blue battle axe and call the game Penguin AXE Walrus. In the game, you will fight a walrus.

I also drew the following picture, which comes dangerously close to being dreaded Animal Lover Humor. But seriously. There's probably nothing cuter in the animal kingdom than little penguin chicks.



Awwwww.

Anyway, if there's a Coordinated Content canon, then let the post above this one be counted. This week, I had to go through quite the process, though.
