Great cute game ! I love the art style and the story telling at the begining
Love the frogs!!
Very cute game! The details in the graphics really show and they all work together to make the game look like a complete package! The intro was very fun and I appreciated the tutorial being built into the beginning of the game. I hope I found all of the special frogs around the marsh they were all very cute! Hope you had a good game jam!
super cute art!!!!
Really cute! I love that you managed to make a little intro scene. I think that the controls could have a little more polish: for example, it is faster to move in diagonals, and the movement feels a little sluggish.
Overall, that's a pretty nice game you made. And even if the theme can be interpreted as "make a stressful game", you made a quite relaxing one, and that's really nice!
The graphisms are really cute, we also made a game about frogs go check it out! PS: I love the splash sfx.
This game is so cute! I loved how squishy the frogs are. It was also nice that the UI explained most of controls clearly, though it did take me a bit to realize that you can steal frogs back from witches. My only complaint was that it was unclear what determined the direction a frog gets thrown in.
A frog game, all I ever wanted <3
Cute game! Loved the graphics
Cute game, great introduction. The pixel art is really great. It's a bit hard to catch all the witches so unfortunately some frogs got caught :( Great job ^^
What an adorably charming entry! I love the style, music and pixel art, I genuinely felt bad every time a witch took off one of those sweet little frogs. Main criticism is perhaps the movement could have been sped up - getting around felt a bit sluggish. All in all though I thought this an enjoyable and easily digestible little game!
Good vibe :) Long life to frogs
Great game the art style is really cool and the frog are soo cute :D
Frog with bowtie is adorable. Cute story, nice pixel art and up beat music with sound effects. Save a frog today :)
That was fantastic! I loved the adorable pixel art (:D)!!! Bonking witches was surprisingly enjoyable, and I think I did pretty good at it for a noob like myself ;). I saved 24 frogs; got 25 frogs wet; 7 frogs got stolen from me (:'|); I bonked 13 witches; and ran 198m! Overall, this was really great! Keep it up!
Thankyou all so much for the kind words so far! So glad you enjoy the game, the team went a bit frog mad over the last 72 hours! <3
Love the artstyle!
Cute artstyle
I really do love the touch of the cutscene at the start. I had trouble aiming the frogs though, maybe it was partially because the character was only facing one direction? Overall adorable game!!
The artstyle is great. I wasn't expecting the sound design to get so eerie sounding at times, lol. 7 of my frogs got stolen :(
I loved the frogs!!
Nice game!
I like the art and the idea. The prompt for the E button and the movement tutorial were really great. I would have liked to have one for the dash too, I didn't read the description so I didn't get it at first haha. The sound design works well. Also the intro is really cute!
Maybe the world could have been smaller or movement faster so that you are more focused on what is on screen rather than the arrow on the edges.
Well done, this is a very cute game 🐸
Great music & sfx, and very cute art! Grabbing frogs and tossing them into the water is a lot of fun lol. The witches are cool too for difficulty.

Frogs status: saved Bad witches: BTFO'd
Lovely little game! Throwing the frogs in the ponds is a bit janky, and they don't always go where you expect them to, but a really nice experience overall!
Cute witch/10
Cute little game! I love the art and the music, the movement felt a little sticky sometimes but hardly anything to complain about.
Also.. the witch walls with the music is terrifying..
Wow, got pulled in by the graphics and they really make this project shine. Movement felt a little bit slow, i mean i try to save those cute little frogs, why don't i run to get rid of those witches :<
Lost 2 poor frogs to soop, but i'm proud of the frogs i saved :3
I REALLY loved the little cute add-ons some frogs had - made some of them WAY more important to save than others :p
I love the cute art style :heart_eyes: especially the frogs :frog:
Very cute and charming game. I saved this as a play later when the games were being released and even saw your little short on youtube earlier on today when looking for LD51 games in YT. It is an amazing little game with some lovely 2D sprite, and the game feels wonderful to play and I have no complaints about it at all and just want more of it. Everything about it is spot on.
This is so fun and adorable! Great game!
Such a very very cute game
Wonderful art and sound design, both very fitting to the aesthetic you guys went for.
hehe.PNG
I thought the main point was to put the frogs in the water! Very cute and beautiful game
Very cute, love the artwork!
The vibes on this are impeccable, love the little frogs and I will protect them with my life. My only criticism is that the move speed feels slow to the point that even when I feel like I'm doing well, sometimes the witches are just able to straight up outrun me which feels a little harsh. Maybe I just need to git gud though, as they say. All in all really delightful and fun!
Fun game. It would have been nice to be able to sprint. The game felt a little slow for me, however, I am always willing to put on my robes to save the frogs =)
Frog of satisfaction! Always good to have more froggy friends! I loved how they smile when they are bathing in the water. Also Water Splash and SFX details are nice! Player movement feels draggy and slow, other than that everything looks good to me! Our Game based on pickUp and throw feature as well! I bet Grimmy can get along with your froggy :D.
@shiro-white Thankyou so much! I absolutely loved your game and the artstyle is amazing! Thankyou so much for saving our frogs!
It was a fun game, the art style is amazing and the concept really fun. I loved knocking the frogs off the witches :P The only thing I was left wishing was for a faster walking speed. Overall though, enjoyed playing the game, keep it up!
Cute game, I thought I was doing well but 6 frogs got stolen from me, rip friends I'm sorry. Graphics were really nice, I loved the little frogs and getting ones that were looking stylish lol The hearts when you pick them up and all the little details like that made it super cute. Movement was a little slow to me, but it doesn't really make the game more difficult since the enemies match the speed, it just feels slow to play.
Would save frog friends again though.
Great fun game :) Loved the art! movement was a bit slow, but still, great entry! congrats!
Loooved the frogs! ♥
I loved the witches and frogs theme, the graphics are really cute but I got anxious that the witch moved really slowly, maybe when appears more witches It could be nice if you increase a bit you movility
Thanks everyone for playing and appreciating frogs 🐸 Thank you so much for the amazing feedback, we've fixed some of the issues including the slow moving speed (but it will be in a post-jam version to keep things fair)
Really adorable. I did feel later in the round I wasn't so much a frog watcher as a Witch watcher. They gathered up near the middle and I just kept physically assaulting them.
Good sound design at the perimeter.
Damn frogs!
I throw them in the water and they jump out! I ALMOST made soup with them along with the other witches.
Joking aside, a very well done game. Very nice graphics and audio.
I found the gameplay a little slow. Perhaps increasing the speed a little would make the mood more desperate.
Congratulations!
I really liked the graphics... the frogs were cute enough to motivate me to protect them. I also liked the animations.
After a while, the music started to annoy me, and the fact that my character is not faster also slightly bothered me.
But these are a few shortcomings of an otherwise very beautifully crafted game. the bow tie frog was the best. I didn't give up on that one.
Thanks for playing everyone! If you're still about we also made a little bonus minigame follow-up to this: [Frogdodge!](https://jimmizi.itch.io/frogdodge).
Next jam we'll be switching over to Godot instead of Unity!
Fantastic, cute little game! <3
