Finally got the last badge! 17 days! I got the 3rd glider before the second rocket pack. Like everyone else, I recommend prioritising glider then rocket, acceleration, rocket fuel, ramp and finally resistance. Also, go for height and duration on a new ramp before you go for anything else, they are pretty easy.

That moment when you feel so victrious for being about to hit 6000 feets, then diving down because you are so happy, and then land in the water at 5999 feets! Yay...

To get the medium achievement within the hard one, fly up while using the missile till the sky darkens, then press right arrow key and BAM! 150+ speed!

wouldn't you need 5 days to complete the game (provided your a great flier)-one on each ramp, because you can't get to the last ramp without doing every achievment on the other ramps. So the ones who comleted the game in o days (impossible), 1, 2, i still dont believe that.

Okay.. I'm here to uncomplicate things..
Day 1 - Skim once, then buy 1 acceleration
Day 2 - Skim twice, you will get 25 points and the distance award (25) you will have 52 points altogether so buy the first glider.. from here it's all based on judgement. Do the easy awards first to buy the new gliders as soon as possible
By day 16 you should have most upgrades.. the most important being the rocket, glider and full acceleration.
Here is the technique for 6000 feet:
From the start ramp use 2/3 of your fuel getting altitude, when you are high enough, even out and burn the rest of your fuel to get as much speed as you can. At this point blance your penguin so that he is flying at 1% resistance. You should be able to hold this to 6000 feet.
If you cannot then you probably will have earned yourself a load of points, use these to upgrade and try again.
DO NOT SKIM, you will lose a load of speed if you do.

um... there is someone on the leader boards with a high score of 0 in fastest clear time. seems like an obvious hacker to me, anyone else on the same boat as me?

The small white and black penguin surfing again, well geared to improve on that mission. Nice approach at the penguin go about to do those. Very jolly.

it took me 6 tries to complete the game in 17 days. the key: getting the glider on day 3. possible if u first upgrade acceleration and than bounce on the water at day 2.

Can no-one who's complaining about not getting badges read the message up at the top of the game?
"Please note: If you are using Ruffle, badges will not work normally. In order to earn a badge in a Flash game, you will need to complete the badge, then submit a screenshot (showing both proof of completion and your username) as a missing badge report."

Day 1: Just fly. Buy Acc
2: Just fly, get distance badge. BUY 1st Glider
3: Go as high, if u do this right u will get altitude bonus $25 BUY 3 x Ramp
4: Go 2nd ramp get money. Buy 2 x Acc and 1 x Air res
5: 2nd ramp, get money. Buy 3 x Air res
6: 2nd ramp, just fly and u will get Dur bonus. Buy 1st rocket
7: Go BACK to the 1st ramp and get the achiev. Buy 3 x Fuel
8: Go to the 2nd ramp get Alt and Dur. Buy 4 x Ramp
9: 3rd ramp, go as high as u can and glide out, get Alt and Dur for $1000. Buy 2nd glider and 2x Fuel
10: Go BACK to 2nd ramp and get the achiev for 4th ramp. Buy 3x Acc
11: 4th ramp, get Alt and Dur for $4000. Buy 3rd glider
12: Go BACK to the 3rd ramp and get the achiev. Buy 2nd Rocket and 3 x Air res
13: 4th ramp, get the last achiev for 5th ramp. Max out Ramp
14: 5th ramp, get Alt and Dur for $10.000. Buy last Rocket and Max Air res
U should be able to go on ur own from here. Use Lettas’ technique when u have it all maxed.

Click the '.' under the Complete the final 6,000-distance achievement to follow a youtube link explaining why it's so depressing. Well worth the click!

Day 1 - Bounce to get achievement. Buy acceleration.
Day 2 - Bounce to get enough distance to buy glider.
Day 3 - Stall your flight for as long as possible. Buy the first 2 ramp heights and one air resistance.
Day 4 - Hold back the left arrow as soon as you lift off to get the altitude award. Buy an acceleration and an air resistance.
Day 5 - Fly the 10' ramp. Go for distance, not altitude. Buy another 2 ramp heights.
Day 6 - Pull up as soon as you lift off. You should level off at ~20 feet, but this is enough to get both the time and altitude awards. Buy the first rocket and 2 rocket fuels.
Day 7 - Go back to the 5' ramp and get the 2 remaining awards (distance and time). Buy the 4th acceleration.
The main thing is to always go for achievements when you can. Always go to the newer ramps as soon as you unlock them, buy stuff and go back to previous ramps and get all the achievements left. Gliders are the most important, next comes the rocket, then acceleration.

What's the point in people cheating at these games? Finishing in 0 days? Max speed 4,024? Max height 12,971? Gimme a break. Losers.

I beat the game as I crashed into the water. If that happened, then how is that penguin still flying in the cut-scene?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
So tell me... How does the penguin read the gauges while staring down? The reflection? And won't he just dive in as soon as he sees a fish? Sounds kind of sketchy...

I remember how I tried so many times to beat this game as a kid and now I return and beat. After so many years this is the real feeling of fulfillment.
