I really like it. The music and everything felt so smooth. I also really liked how nice concepts were introduced. My favorite so far 👍
How come you think of frogs? Were the frogs coming from our itch.io profile pics?

Composer of the game here: glad you liked it! The frog was a nice adition, everyone loves frogs, and in a game about jumping, giving him a bubble of oxygen and make him orbit planets felt right! TheWaffi did an amazing job creating lil dude Frederik

Thank you for the comment! We thought of frogs after we started developing the gameplay. I was making a physics system revolving around the idea of the player using a leap ability to get around... And so I suggested to make them a frog, and the idea stuck.
Thank you. The other frogs are placed in a way to teach you about the game mechanics, so that the player can hopefully figure them out without being told. We thought it may be best not to tell the player what to do at the start. That way, we can make the game more about discovering things for yourself.

I forgot the theme was frogs 2 jams ago, we went with a frog because the player was jumping for the whole game. I suppose everyone on the team worked hard (Waffi's computer broke at the start, but he just drew the whole thing on his phone) and we ended up with a complete game.

Thank you. The lily pads are not meant to be checkpoints, restarting is supposed to send you back to the start of the level. I did this to help combat players attempting the same jump millions of times with slight variations, but instead have to consider some of the jumps. It also lets players see how far they have come when the parts they struggled on become easy.
