I thought the unique aspects of the mechanics in this game were a plus for me. I liked you could even do a unique kind of jump that could even work on the heads of the enemies. 

I think the specific ways the level up, combat and other details turned out make this kind of original, something hard to do with this type of game. Really nice job on this!

Developer

Thank you Skykone! This is a really awesome feedback, we are already working on more unique mechanics and ways to attack if you are intrested follow along!

This is really great–love the music and graphics! The mechanics take a bit to get used to, but once you do it’s fine. I think if the jump aiming were just a bit faster to start, it would be perfect.

Developer

Thank you Hatmix for playing and the feedback!

Really solid core mechanics. My favorite were the multi-bounce power ups.
This is my personal favorite submission so far. Nice work!

Developer

Thank you Basement! I’m glad you had fun playing and thanks for following! ❤️

Fine game but a little too hardcore for me.

Developer

Thanks for playing Riebi! Yes we realised it might be too hard sometimes. We have included WASD movement into our new build! If you are interested for our demo in three weeks follow along!

Really solid entry. I liked catching arrows as well as needing to hop to move around. I got a weird bug (I think) where I died right when I leveled up or got a n upgrade to where I could get a heart, but I was dead. So I had health, but couldn't play.

Developer

Thank you Chippper for playing and leaving some feedback! We have continue development and if you are interested join our discord for early play testing! 
We are adding new movement and procedural generations to the levels feel free to come say hi to the team.

Loved this game! A fun concept, cute graphics, easy to grasp and quite rewarding to play.

I played with my 6yo son. Will likely come back and play more tomorrow!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, Pete, and your son for playing! It's awesome that you got to share our game with him. I hope he enjoys it!

Played your game on stream. if you wanted to watch me go through it ive attached the vod below timestamped to your game. Overall the game is great. Has some nice difficulty, graphics are great, and sound effects and music work well with everything else. Theres some minor bugs (sometimes the frog is a bit above the shadow) but theyre not major and all the little polish touches everywhere are great (like the shadow getting smaller and bigger). If you work on it post jam the two main things I noticed that could be improved a bit is making the water parts of the map affect things like pathing or interact with entities in some way (instead of being the same as ground), and maybe having some more randomization of initially shown powerups and upgrades to add more variety to runs instead of always starting with the same 3 powerups from the princess and having the same pool of starting upgrades

Developer

Hey Ategon! Thanks for playing I just watched the VOD and it was so much fun watching you play and figure things out. We are already making a new build of the game and your feedback will help us immensely.

As for the power ups, you got unlucky and got the same ones ahahha they all have same chance of appearing.

Regardless, your feedback was so helpful to us and we really appreciate it. ❤️

This is very fun. Very unique combat. I enjoyed it a lot.

Developer

Thank you Roburab!

Very nice game. The combat feels very fair and the mechanics are great, especially the movement. Well done!

Developer

Thank you Nubels for playing! I glad you had a good time playing!

This was great!  Spitting back arrows was such a fun surprise!  I'm not sure I could have made it very far without thorns but I had a lot a fun.  At some point I'll have to try out the download version because the web version would kinda freeze when a power up was presented.  My only complaint is the level up would sometimes happen right as I jumped so choosing one had me jump in the wrong place.  Flip side, full control on just the mouse was a great.

Developer

Great catch on the thorns—they're quite overpowered at the moment, haha. The downloaded version is lag-free and offers the best chance for you to defeat all the bosses. We're already working on optimizing and releasing a proper demo in the next few weeks! If you are intrested follow along.  There is already a new build with new WASD movements!

It's an addictive frog game. Well done! One bit of feedback would be to make the arrows more visible. Especially when moving through another enemy.

Developer(+1)

Thank you Yblade_dev for playing! Okay we will make sure to look into how we can make the arrows more visibile. Thank you for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Love this game!  The hopping movement is a really fun twist on the genre, and being able to control everything with just the mouse feels great!

Thank you for playing EYanyo! We truly appreciate the time you took to provide feedback. It means a lot to us!

This entry is amazing! The game play feels very fluid, controls are simple and work great, the art style works so well! Fantastic job with this one!

Developer

Thank you Crisptos!

HUGE shoutout to the artists, BogdanS and zho knocked it out of the park its such a cute game! Always a good sign for a game jam game when I find myself playing 'just one more'.  It wasn't clear to me if it was worth saving up a big jump versus some quick little jumps, and it'd be nice if the water and lily pads affected enemy pathing and valid player positioning (all stuff I'm sure you have on your to-do list that just didn't make it into the deadline). Great sound effects as well!


P.S. yes to more forgs in games

Developer

Thank you, Delvan! We'll pass your wonderful feedback to our talented artist. We've already added WASD short jump movement, making it more exciting than ever. If you're interested, try out our new version! Regardless, thank you so much for playing and providing your feedback.

I leveled up and died at the same time. Now  I am immortal, endless level up but can't play. Worth it... Great game good job :d

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, you don't get queue free even after you die, haha. We've already fixed this in our demo. If you're interested, feel free to follow along!

I love the art style for the game and the intro panel for the controls was aesthetically pleasing. I like the simplicity of the controls and the leveling up concept its quite addictive haha XD I like the littl efly cursor I think it was a nice touch as well. The animations and effects when attacking and taking damage help make the game immersive. My main strategy was jumping and running away to avoid all the obstacles. There was one moment where my computer froze and I got some buffer overflow error in the logs. I love how the upgrades keep stacking and stacking and how the frog can chain bounce on the enemies. The ending was super cute too! All in all great work!

Developer(+1)

Hey SodaGummy! Thank you for playing! I'm thrilled you were able to beat the game—it's an achievement not many have accomplished. We're already working on a more polished demo. If you're interested, follow along and we'll send you a copy once it's ready!

Fun twist on a survivors like game.  I like the bouncing on enemies upgrade.

Developer

Ya thats a pretty fun one once you max out! I'm happy you got some fun out of it.

Really fun game ! I don't think I got very far as I havn't encountered any big knight like in the pictures but I still liked it. The enemies are cool and really hard to fight when together, especially the buffers. The classic upgrades are cool and I didn't expect the abilities upgrade that are fun and add a lot to the game. The controls are just what I would expect as a frog and the game design is well thought for these abilities. All of that with super pretty pixel art, amazing job !

Developer(+1)

ahahha yeah the buffers bit fast and tanky. Thank you for playing we really appreciate the time you spent leaving a feedback. 

Submitted(+1)

The game is so much fun and I really like the opening scene. Kind of reminds me of Undertale. haha

I had some noticeable loading issues which I had to restart a couple of times. Maybe it's just me, though.

But seriously, this could easily be a quick indie hit.

Developer

Thank you Q Yoneda. Thats is the dream we are working hard for a more polished demo!

Such a fun game!

Developer

Thank you for playing Nhutchins! I’m glad you had some fun playing.
