The music was jaunty, the art style was nice but the camerawork made it very difficult to play. Also the game automatically opened full screen and the only way I could quit out of it was to End Task from Task Manager. Great job though!

It might be better if the camera only followed the player when the next safe row was reached. And yes, it shouldn't jump to the new location, too...

Hey Megadroid12,

It's nice to see another Frogger being re-imagined! (please, check mine as well!)

Game runs pretty ok and it's easy to play. I like the twist where you need to switch the lights on at the end! Also 8 bit stylish music works well here! Gameplay wise there's couple of things I would like to suggest for a better experience:

  1. Lerping aka linear interpolation of things. Now the movement of the player is instant. Camera follows instantly as well. This feels a bit unnatural and when compared to e.g. cars and other moving things they seem to "jump" to a new location. You could try making the camera follow to to use a lerp with smoothstep. And maybe try it to the player as well (unless it's intended).
  2. Randomness.  After couple of tries it was easy to see that everything has a fixed interval / distance. It's easy to learn and then "exploit". Adding randomness would give more replayability.

Keep up the good work and looking forward to see where this develops!

Cheers!
