Game description
You are an alien consciousness who inhabits the body of a school pet frog, and you have one humble goal: to achieve complete domination over Earth using only your mind. Assume control over students and school staff, using them to help you ascend the ranks of power within the school and beyond.

But beware - your area of psychic influence is limited and there are conspiracy theorists who are immune to your mind control waves. You will need to be clever and cunning if you want to become Overlord of Earth!

Theme interpretation
In this game, the radius of your influence represents alien mind control “waves”. Your influence can be spread by turning on radios to boost the frequencies of your psychic waves.
Bonus: characters in the game can literally “wave” to each other in order to cause strategic distractions.

So cute! The gameplay was super fun, the visuals and audio were really cute and the whole idea was so cool! The level design was really creative and led to some thinking and timing. Genuinely amazing job!

What a delight of the game. The art style is so cool, reminds me of a children's book or comic. The idea for the gameplay is super innovative, almost immsim. Actually reminded me a lot of ghost trick. I liked setting up radios to draw people over and the in game art was clean and cute. The only issue the timer felt a little short and I felt like a lot of time I couldn't disable the NPCs with a distraction as long as I would have liked.  I managed the first level, accidently cheated and won the second but had my path set up to win, and couldn't get the timing right in the third so just jumped to the last cutscene. Maybe there was some way to jump and retrigger interactions faster but it felt a little finnicky. But I'm really impressed at the amount of work and the crazy concept you managed to pull off in one month. I also love the plot reminds me a little of like Futurama.

I love this game! It was a bit hard to click some of the interactions, but that may have been the size of my screen. Otherwise I really enjoy the gameplay and such a fun story. And also I love jar frog, long may he live!

Really like the game and the idea, nice graphics and cool music.

It's very challenging, tried both levels but cannot finish any of them. I managed to light the radios but cannot figure out what else to do. There are other object that seem to be interactable but when clicking on them nothing happens. Probably need to spend more time on it to figure out what I'm missing, but it makes me want to try more so that's a good sign

Very well done!

Thanks for trying and for the kind words! The main goal is to carry the frog out of each level as they key npc. This will involve switching on radios, distracting certain npcs blocking your way (by waving at them), unlocking doors, and other things. You may need to switch around NPCs to solve different puzzles (i.e. teachers are allowed in some areas students are not, students can fit some places teachers cannot). If you have the NPCs "talk" to each other, sometimes they drop hints on how to progress in that level.

Cheers, I tried again, I think I had some sort of bug the first time. No matter who I was taking the first time, I was told they weren't worthy of holding the frog, even with people from the teacher area, so I couldn't progress. But I tried again now and managed to finish the first 2 levels, I was able to pick it up this time. Pretty cool puzzles !

Ahh glad to hear you got the hang of it! I will give your game a try - looks cool!

I can't rate the game yet but I tried 2 levels, it takes some brainpower so I'll figure it out slowly, thanks for making the level selector🤣

I really like the art and the humour, the concept is a fresh interpretation of the theme imo. The NPCs doing their own thing is pretty neat, felt like they not just conduits of froggy world domination. The dialogues as tips are nice touch. Really appreciated the tutorial at the start also.
