Amazing Penguin for the GB is a fun action-puzzle game. Sort of like Qix, but on rails and featuring several different enemies with differing movement patterns. The behavior of enemies is completely deterministic, and sometimes you play through 75% of a level and then realize that all the enemies are closing in on your area, leaving you with no room to escape... in which case you have to try a different strategy.

To make it more interesting, there are minus symbol (-) items that reverse the direction of enemy movement when activated. You can also temporarily destroy enemies by kicking rocks at them, which is helpful for disrupting the enemy movement pattern.
