Hi penguin pals,
As we all know, the closure of Waddle Penguins Island is coming, and it is coming up fast! We're still finalising some last things behind the scenes, and we cannot wait to see everyone on the Island (for the last time, unfortunately).
April 26th, 2025, will mark the end of Waddle Penguins' journey, and for that I need to thank every single (former or present) Staff Team member of the old CPPS or current CPIPS. The Waddle Penguins Island Team is saddened by the closure, however, some members wanted to share our final words to the community before we waddle on into new, undiscovered adventures. Here are the final words (in random order):
- “It's been a pleasure working with WPI, unfortunately our time is over, for now. I hope we can see again soon!” — Allinol
- “As I've gone from being a WPI superfan to working for the game, I will surely miss WPI I've met many friends on here, and I have had many sled races. Waddle on WPI ❤️” — PipPirrip
- “It’s been a pleasure to be a part of the WPI team. I will miss the community, waddle on!” — Rocket
- “In the short time I've been here, it's been a pleasure and a lot of fun to be part of this community. Thank you all for the opportunity. Waddle on!” — Kralsito344
- “Once a Penguin, always a Penguin. Together, we built an island, and together, we waddle on. 🐧 🏝️ ❤️🩷 ” — Wednesday (secretwolf98)
- “Gone but never forgotten. Thank you for an opportunity of a lifetime, I hope to see you all on another server soon!” — Boo0
- “Thank you all for the amazing memories & meet ups, you guys were amazing, and maybe we'll see each other again in the near future, Waddle on!” — Cookie
- “As one of the founders of WPI I'm glad to have been on this journey with everyone here, this feels like end of 2018 all over again. Don't forget: once a penguin, always a penguin. Waddle on ☆” — Teegx
- “What if penguins waddled on an island. Sorry, I've done too much sappy writing recently” — Jeff The Rock.
Don't forget to join our final meetup (and server closure)! We start at 19:00 CEST on Saturday, 26 April 2025. Additionally, a YouTube Live Stream will be held where I (Chris) and Alex (Teegx) will (hopefully) talk you through the history of Waddle Penguins (Island) and stream the meetup and closure for those who will be unable to join the game itself.
For latest updates, please join our Discord. We have posted a timetable there with times adjusted to your timezone.
Waddle On,
– Waddle Penguins Island Team
