lookes like something in between Pacman, Popeye the Sailor and Pockemon Go) Its a very great job. Music and art are awesome. I wish i could do the same in 2 days.
The only thing is that she stucks sometimes on top sides of ladders.
It's a nice little platformer. The art is cute. I would have loved some sound effects when you pick up the diamonds. Climbing ladders is somehow clunky. I often get stuck somewhere in the middle until I find the right middle place to keep climbing. And when you are walking over the ladder sometimes you fall down a couple of pixels and get stuck. Overall it's a nice entry
A good game, it feels like Popeye eating spinach, and the physics system in the last level feels a little crazy.
Nice to have more elements progressively. The music is catchy, but I'd love to also have some sound effects. I also didn't understand immediately that I needed to collect the diamonds in order to make the frogs shrink, but I found out pretty soon. Overall nice game :)
The music was a bop, and the whole thing had a nice retro-arcade vibe going. Navigating ladders felt bit fiddly, but the platforming was solid otherwise.
Good game, like it :]
i liked the jumping platform and the fact that the frogs could use it too, the design is also nice. wish you could restart the level instead of starting the game from the beginning since sometimes the frogs were right next to the spawn point and I got an instant loss. The variety of frogs is also nice, but they seemed a little too big, failing if you didn't time the jump exactly. + the character would get stuck at the top of the ladder often, but overall, nice concept. I liked it
Had a bit of trouble with ladders, and controller somewhat clunky overall. But it's working and entertaining
Really liked the levels and the music! As others already mentioned, the controls were a bit "messy" when you stand on top of the latters, which caused me to die. Also, a little bit clear feedback in the game itself would be nice that you - after collecting all the orbs - can now destroy the frogs. Overall, nice game !
Nice sprite work! I saw the little thumbnail and had to play your game. It was just as retro as I hoped for. Apart from trying to get up the ladders and walking over them on the top everything worked great. I wish there was a pickup sound effect, it's always so satisfyings. Congrats on finishing a nice and complete game :)
Nice platformer with unique twist. If only the jump were higher, this could be more fun.
Interesting game, made me think of some great classics in the NES era. :D Great looking sprites and a nice catchy music in the background ;)
Wish I was better at platforming, but after some practice I've managed to reach the second (or third?) level with jump pads. There's a nice progression to the game, and slowly introducing more mechanics with each level makes it feel not too overwhelming.
One thing I'd change is the crystal collection mechanic. Right now, you've got to collect them all and then all the frogs shrink down. Maybe it would work better if they were split into groups and each group would shrink one or more frogs? That way you wouldn't have to run in panic to get all the frogs before they get big again, and wouldn't have to wait as long for crystals to respawn.
Overall, it's a really great compo entry, impressive work done in such a short time! :)
That was cute :D Really cool idea, just wish there was more levels! Nice art style, and cool music! Only climbing ladders is a bit finicky. Anyway, well done entry!
