I like the idea a lot. It is hard to tell which object will accept you and which won't.

I really like the music, and thought this was a very interesting idea! I would suggest adding a lose condition if you hide in the same object twice in a row. I felt like I found a cheat code by just landing in the same tree every time.

Cute! I didn't quite understand what I was supposed to do but maybe I'm dumb. Cool avante-garde music!

Mmh, I didn't really get what I was supposed to do. I tried staying in the same bench for a few minutes (jumping and re-integrating the bench repeatedly) and it worked, but didn't trigger anything. I also tried to jump from objects to objects but got stuck on both sides at houses. I liked the music and the base concept is cool!

I hid in a bird. Interesting entry.

There's an interesting idea here, I'd like to see it taken further.

The direction and speed you travel when leaving an item seems a bit too random, and the timer should probably reset to 10 if you exit early.

Fancy! First time I saw a game like this!

Great idea !

It's a great idea and I like the mechanics but I would add some punishment for hiding in the same spot or giving feedback about what you're supposed to hide from. That would give more excitement to the gameplay.

The camera makes it very hard to target a specific point to land. Maybe keep camera at ground level with arrow to follow the frog would help... But it would not work for high place like roof. I love the core idea, the execution need more work, but you spent some time on interaction details like mail form or bird transport which is very good

It is a very nice game, bonus points on theme, it is incoporated very well. The idea that different objects give you different eject velocities and directions is very cool. Now, I do believe this idea can be into a "getting over it" scale game. To do this, except for certain zoom bugs (when the screen changes by differet aspects when entering different objects, it sometimes breakes the game), all you need to do is turn this game into a puzzler. The puzzler genre fits this game more then the survive style IMO.

Overall great idea, great game, very expandable, well done! High points!

Works great, smart version of the theme !.

Love the new idea for this one, haven't seen a game like it yet. Its fun to launch your self mock 10 and hope to hit a bird lol. Only thought is whats stopping the player from jumping straight up and down for ever, maybe you can't use the same object twice in a row?

Great Game!

Really like the idea - unfortunately the controls were a bit frustrating, and I never could make it very far. I think if I had more control of what direction I'd pop out and where I was landing this could be a really fun little platformer!
