SuperTux, the classic 2D jump and run game, released new major 0.7.0 version yesterday!<\/p>\n
It’s been more than 4 years since the last version. The new 0.7.0 features completely redesigned character (the Tux), new background, music, and levels, multi-player mode, as well as revived Android support.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
First, the penguin has been completely redesigned<\/b>. It now looks stereoscopic, runs and jumps more like a human. And, it features new creep forward<\/b> action triggered by press’n’holding down and moving left\/right.<\/p>\n The penguin body now turns fiery-red instead of wearing a cap after ate a fire-flower, and, the fireballs now feature new animation with burning effect. When idle (you’re not controlling it), it will play on its own and even sit on the ground and take a load off.<\/p>\n This version also overhauled the world I<\/b> (aka Icy Island) and world II<\/b> (aka Rooted Forest). And, user can now press the action key (left Control<\/i> by default) to switch between different worlds, though in my case only Icy Island is available.<\/p>\n SuperTux 0.7.0 also added some new enemies and NPCs<\/b>. They include Granito<\/b> – a friendly npc within Rooted Forest levels, Root Sapling<\/b> – spawns small roots pointing upwards like Ghost Tree, and Corrupted Big Granito<\/b>– a hostile version of the friendly Granito NPC.<\/p>\n The 0.7.0 version as well added local multiple player mode<\/b>, allowing to play with your friends on same screen with up to 4 players (penguins) with different or even same input devices (e.g., a keyboard).<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/supertux070b2.webp\")
