I can't imagine how that ranger frog ended up in this situation or how you came up with it, but it's very funny (it seems like something that could happen in an episode of Futurama). I'm not very comfortable with the controls. Nice work.

Very interesting mechanic for spinning the lasso! It felt like I had to press A and D faster the longer I was spinning the lasso, but I'm not sure the audio cue  sped up to stay synchronized, so that could add even more to the feel and make it easier to multitask between aiming and winding up. The art was very nice too :)

While the game was very cute, I had some trouble playing it. It feels like it take a lot of time for the lasso to gain any distance, and it also feels like you attention is split too thin between a timing minigame and aiming where you are going. If you focus on one, it's very hard to do the other. With how fast the lasso minigame can go, you really cant take your eyes off of it for a second. While this issue is rough, there are plenty of ways you could combat it. I'd recommend placing the A/D minigame on the cursor rather than the frog, that way you can easily keep track of both without having to advert your eyes from the other. Loved the art by the way!

I like your art and animation very much (but it's a little difficult to operate in the touch). Maybe one day my art will be as strong as yours.. ( This is my first time to participate in gamejam, and this is also my first comment.. Your art style moves my heart..)🥺🥺🤲🤲💕💕

stunning art and i love the way you did the credits :) controls are a bit confusing though

The game looks good, but the controls are hard to get. I think you need a tutorial or people will be very confused.

I also got frozen in the death menu.

FROGS GAMES RULE YEAH!

My personal record was 3:31 minutes. 

I did not get how to play immediately. The same button was used for both starting to spin the lasso and also tossing it, and I as holding the spacebar so it was not working.

But very good game! nice visuals and the music is really good to!

Clicked on this game for the amazing art and adorable frog animation. Was quite confused by the controls, clicking and pressing the keys didn’t appear to have a obvious response. I managed to keep the lasso going for a bit, but not sure where I was supposed to aim it. Interesting concept and beautiful animation though!

Absolutely beautiful art! Super hard for me to get the timing right, but it's a neat concept. Not sure why but the audio didn't play well for me in the browser.

Cool game! The art is absolutely stunning. Gameplay is very hard but fun, would like if the bar was larger on the screen as its hard to aim while looking at the bar. Great job by the team!

we had a last minute problem seting the parallax size that changed the bad and lasso sizes making the game so much more difficult xD We published and noticed later..
