Really like the concept, and the frogger style gameplay fits it well! The music and art is great too!

Developer

Thanks! Appreciate the feedback :)

I rated this game very highly very early in the jam and just realized I didn't leave a comment!

Praise: 

Color pallet is top-notch (and really meshes with the beer theme), sound is top-notch, animations are top-notch.... The tutorial was perfect and simple. 

A lot of the games in the jam can be quite complex and the tutorials are overwhelming. Also, the tutorial here was just plainly charming. It gets you in a good mood to play the game with the cute introduction to the characters. I literally called my girlfriend over when I read "This is pitcher!" because I needed her to see him.

Feedback: 

Not much! The only thing that kept it from being perfectly enjoyable was the set character speed. As a Frogger enthusiast, I did wish I could speed up my gameplay to match my dodging skills.

P.S.

"Beer is ammo and beer is hp. Beer is life." Lol

Thanks so much! Absolutely delighted by this feedback, really appreciate the kind words. Great point regarding the character speed, suspect it would have helped with the difficulty which has been mentioned a few times too.

Quick edit as I've found the palette I used - it's called antiquity16, was made by 𝕀𝕃𝕋𝔸, and can be found on Lospec here https://lospec.com/palette-list/antiquity16

Wonderful game! Great spin on the frogger classic with a wonderful implementation of the limitation. The little characters were well made and the music was great! (do I hear some pokémon inspiration?) 

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much! More than a little bit of Pokemon inspiration I think - Yellow was one of the first games I ever owned, thought it was about time I wrote something in that style :)

Submitted(+1)

Well the inspiration certainly came through! The music was wonderful, amazing job! Pokémon Sapphire was one of the first games I ever owned, the music from those games is timeless :)

I like this. It's a nice twist on frogger. The addition of the beer reducing each time adds a slight element of strategy. As a little game jam game, this does quite well.

Would be cool to see some extra enemies or perhaps selectable player drinks with different speeds and number of lives? Perhaps wine only is a smaller glass with only 2 lives, but it's a bit faster? 

Developer

Thanks! Absolutely love the idea of character selection, a wine decanter would be great, and maybe a keg with slow speed and additional health?

Glad you enjoyed the game :)

Man, I love beer too... haha!

Couldn't resist the urge to make a game about beer when I saw the theme! Glad you enjoyed it, was a lot of fun to make

Loved the concept and presentation! I wish the difficulty scaled as the game went on though, it was a little too hard for me.

Developer

Glad you liked the concept and presentation! A few comments have mentioned that it's challenging, I'll work on getting a better difficulty curve in future projects - thanks for the feedback!
