Being serious earns respect, but being desperate makes people look down on you 🔥

Look Alike

It seems "desperate" and "serious" look alike, but they are different.

Two Bad Ways

People who slack off get scolded.

People who are desperate and have no calm are looked down on for some reason.

⚡ TRY IT
Switch the mode
Tap a mode. How does the other penguin see you? 💢 "Hey! Please do it properly." 😅 "Whoa, calm down… you look a little funny." 👀 "Wow. This one is really good."
Try all 3 modes and compare the bars.
😴 Slacking off → you get scolded.
😰 Desperate → lots of effort, but no calm.
🔥 Serious → effort and calm, so you get respect!
Modes tried: 0/3
🏅 You found it: serious = effort + calm!
Serious Mode

Serious people are calm, and they have a quiet power that says, "I will not make a mistake."

People respect them.
