i was trying to catch the bees until i found out they sting 😂, idea was cool i loved jumping on the platforms and the tung keeps following alont with your movement, it was really cool catching the flies aswell, Great Game!, Good job!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Very smooth and satisfying!
This is the kind of game that can get you hooked.
The mechanics work flawlessly, and the pixelated style fits perfectly.
- Maybe a bit more precise indications to which leaf exactly is a bee is flying when it "attacks", could work well.
Glad you liked it. I'll look into adding indicators. Thanks for the feedback.
This game is so entertaining and addictive. Love the tongue mechanic... Great job!
Thank you. So glad you enjoyed it.
The tongue mechanic is super satisfying and grabbing the flies just feels good. Simple idea but well put together and it gets quite addictive trying to beat your score. I like how the difficulty ramps up and the sound effects fit the visuals well. Would be great to see a live leaderboard and maybe a way to deal with the bees in the future. Solid jam entry
Thank you. I will be continuing with development after the jam, and intend to include a few more ideas, including the ones you mentioned.
great, look forward to hearing how it develops. I am also going to keep working on my Jam game. Would love some feedback from you too if you haven't already. Have fun
I'll be playing your game tomorrow. While I'll play some randomly selected games, I'm making sure to play every game by anyone who comments on mine.
A genuinely fun little game. I've only played a couple of times but my high score was 24. This is the kind of game where you get better at it the more you play it, and its actually quite hard to make those. I want to write more stuff here but I think I want to go have another round more than that lol. Great job :)
Thank you. I'm really glad so many people are enjoying playing. It was genuinely fun to make too.
new High score of 39 lol. I dont know how to make them but a Leaderboard would go so well with this kind of game. Anyway time to stop playing lol. good job again.
I don't know how to do that yet either, but I will definitely see if I can add one later. I'm going to continue working on this game once the jam has ended, testing and adding more ideas that I didn't have enough time to include, and a level based mode if I can get it to work well. Thanks again for playing, and I appreciate the feedback.
simple but fun, liked the tongue movement and the dying-sound xD
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I love the way the tongue flops about but I wish I had a way to dodge or repel the bees. Clean and simple game play, Good Job!
Thank you for playing, and for your constructive feedback. I will continue working on this game after the jam, and I have many ideas, including for counteracting the wasps. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to implement them during the jam.
very simple and very fun game, I love that the frogs tongue angles based on your movement direction, very nice detail :)
Thanks for playing. Glad you liked it.
Fantasic, one of my favorites so far
Oh wow. Thank you so much.
Nice job! It's a simple game but I like it. The fly grabbing mechanic works really well and feels good when you catch one. Congrats!
Thanks. I was really happy how the tongue mechanic worked out.
Simple but quite polished.
Sound effects and the visuals really match.
Thank you for playing. I felt simple cartoon graphics should have some simple but effective sounds.
Quite a simple game that I really enjoyed playing. The sound effect when you grab a fly is really satisfying! The difficulty level is perfect. Good job!
Thank you. I only added 3 sound effects, as I figured less is more in this case. Glad you enjoyed it.
Froggin' great! Really love how the game feels to play! Great level of challenge with a good difficulty curve that starts easy and ramps perfectly. Good job!
Thank you. So glad you liked it.
This is a fun arcade experience. The catching is very satisfying. Great job!
Thanks. I aim to keep building it after the jam.
I had so much fun playing this game (as a frog enthusiast)!!. I found the fact you could catch flies in a diagonal while hopping pad to pad satisfying. it made it more dynamic than having to wait for the tongue to retract before moving. I also loved the slap sound effect when I got one!
admittedly at first i thought it was a game like space invaders where i had to catch the flies before they dropped down but it made for an extra self-imposed challenge xD Well done!!
Thank you. My inspiration actually was Space Invaders with a twist. Glad you liked the tongue mechanics, I'm really happy how well it worked.
Really fun game, and the art looks great well done!
Thank you. I do enjoy pixel art, and I'm gradually improving. It takes me a while though, as I like to get it to a certain standard.
Your game is so fun! Great job!)
My highscore is 35 🤣
Thanks, I originally planned to have multiple levels and power ups, but didn't have enough time. I'm going to continue working on the game in the future, and see if I can add in my other ideas.
Very satisfying catching those bugs!. Great work.
Thank you. This is my first jam, and the first game I've ever finished. So I'm really glad you liked it.
