Despite the primitivness it has a certain challenging charm to it. It's also surprising and just how much the scrolling 'camera' makes to the game.

Amused me for a little while anyway. Cool that it's for a phone, and cooler still that you made sure it run well without :)

Well... it's basically frogger, and direct remakes of classics never really score well in LD48s. I died a couple of times when there were no cars near me.

It's pretty cool that it will run in a web browser, on a desktop and on a cell phone. I've finally seen evidence of java delivering on its cross platform promise.

I agree, it's basically just frogger. But I did have a surprising amount of fun with it despite its simplicity. There is also something a little wrong (maybe it's just too strict) with the collision detection.

It reminds me a bit of an old game. ;)

Hey, did you know you can go backwards all you want from the start? It's a little weird. Otherwise, yeah, frogger clone. Lots of tech points for making it for such exotic and numerous platforms.

Nice frogger clone..

Yipe. It's nasty how cars keep crunching your corpse over after you're dead.

Frogger sure is a neat ol' design. I had fun with it, getting some thrilling close call moments. Obviously not original though :)

Humosour (wow, fancy sp) story attempt worked in the sense that I went into the game with a smirk rather than a mood of neutral criticism.

Ah, froggy! Nice that somebody made a frogger game, it's satisfyingly complete game but a bit too simple to be really fun.

HybridMind

hadn't played frogger in so long, had forgotten about that game. anyway, liked your goal of platform distribution. I also found the collision detection a little frustrating. I did play until level 11 though so I musta been having fun.. ;)

The collision detection is a little bit of, but apart from that I enjoyed the game thoroughly.

Nice sound effects by the way.

There really should be a pause between levels, because when you violently tap up like i do, you sometimes end up dashing out in front of the first car in the next level ;)

Cool to see a mobile entry.
