Theme Interpretation
The game interpretes the theme is two ways. First, is the goal, the player has no phone signal and you need to find a place where you get signal back. The second being the main mechanic of using a flashlight to communicate with the frog in Morse Code.

I think the idea is cool, but I don't get how the puzzles work. I got through the first level only by reading comments, but I don't get over the first puzzle in the second. The art is great, the atmosphere is nice... but I don't get it :(
ok, after I tried morsing w v multiple times, this time it worked... I'm confused. EDIT: Ok, we got one puzzle further but nothing happened, even when the morsed letters turned green.
Thank you for sticking with it, and I’m sorry it confused you so much!
If you think you did it right but nothing happened, you might not be close enough or you might be in the wrong spot.
There are a few things to know that might be what confused you.
First, you need to send all the right letters at once, without a break like moving or jumping as it tells the game you’ve stopped sending Morse. You can see it when the guide disappears, if you have one or the faint light around the player if not.
Second, if one letter is wrong, you need to start the whole sequence again or it won't be valid.
Last, a green letter only means the game recognized it, not that it’s the right letter for the puzzle. And there’s no feedback yet for the whole sequence, unfortunately, only the letters the frog is showing you.
Is it a bit clearer for you, or would you like more help?
I loved the graph style morse dictionary, that is such a nice idea !
Like the other I did have some diffculty with the flower. But one point that block me the most was that when you press signal twice there is a small time before showing the dictionary. So I didn't understand that you switch mode
Sinon beau travail la team
Thank you so much for playing! The small delay happens because when you are signaling, there is a small wait time before confirming what you did as it is waiting for another possible input. And since it uses the same system everywhere, that's why there is a small delay!
Merci beaucoup, ça fait vraiment plaisir ! :))
It took me a hellish amount of time to say "hey" and I can't pass the butterflies and 2 flower right after it.
My IQ is a one digit number.
Thank you for playing! And your IQ is totally fine! You're not the first to have the same issue, so there is definitely something I did wrong there! But basically the way it works is when you have one flower it is a dot and when there are three flowers close to each other it is a dash! The difficulty for this first level is that I put some grass too close to the flowers so it might be a bit confusing since the grass doesn't count and flowers aren't entirely flowers (more like colorful bushes or mushrooms) which is where most people are lost!
Love the art and the controls were very well done!
Thank you so much for playing! I’m really glad you liked the art and that the controls felt nice to you!
Quite a different concept. But the morse code was tough. The game art and music was awesome. Please play and rate my game : /jam/godot-wild-jam-98/rate/5155444
Thank you so much for playing! I’m really happy you liked the art and music! You’re not the only one who found the Morse code tough. Can you tell me what was hard for you with Morse code so I can improve it ? I’ll check out your game too! :))
I thought this was really well done, looks great and the movement felt nice.
The Morse code bit was really tough though. Sometimes I had trouble with keeping it active - the guide would pop up then disappear and I'm not sure why? It also took a while to figure out the clues - the flowers weren't always flowers and the grass made it confusing
Thank you for your feedback! About Morse Code appearing and disappearing is it because you are either moving or jumping! And a few players said the same about the flowers and the grass making it confusing is a really good point too. It will be the first thing I’ll fix when I can update the game!
One of my favorite games probably the only educational one. I just wish the flowers were clearer
Thank you so much, that really means a lot! Unfortunately, I only found out the flowers were an issue now that people can vote, so I couldn’t fix them in time... You’re not the first one to tell me about it, so it’ll be the first thing I change when I can update the game!
Well. I had to giveup :<
Maybe I missunderstood hints, but I still have no idea how to tranlate flowers to characters :D
Looks great, works nice.
And turns out, it’s hard for me to double click, too used to click or spam click and end up clicking 3+ times every time xD
Oh no! Don't give up yet :((
But basically one flower (or one little colored bush or mushrooms) is a dot but three placed very close to each other or touching is a dash!
Oh, I got used to it so I didn't even thought it could be an issue but I'm taking notes for the future! Thanks for your feedback!
Aaaaaah!
ANY bush is hint. For some reason I understood it as “look, purple flowers are hints”
Got to crystals. Will continue tomorrow :D
So far my biggest issue is not understanding if sequence was incorrect or I’m not pointing my light at correct place. Would be nice to get feedback like “I understood you, but sequence is wrong”. Maybe just me.
It's true, there is feedback for single letters but not the whole sequence, I should have added it too but the light direction doesn't matter (thought it would be too annoying), so if it didn't work, maybe you were not in the correct place or not close enough for some of them!
The game looks really cool (and I love the multiple options for the morse code part, i didnt even know about the tree version of it!!)
I’m stuck tho!! I cant seem to get past the butterflies (look around for a flower thing), i’m not sure if its a bug or if i’m doing something wrong!!
(I’ll try the game later if you can help me get past this!!)
Yeah I like the tree version a lot but some of my friends were confused about it so I had to add the other version for those that might prefer it!
Oh no! I don’t think it’s a bug, the flowers look like the ones in the picture below (if you’re on the first level). They can change since they’re random, maybe you didn’t see them or confused them with the grass!
I went back so far i actually triggered the frog tutorial sequence again hahaha
So in your screenshot, you would do a long press then two short then one long? Or am I counting the mushroom heads instead? Or the little blue dots on the other flower? (just trying to understand haha)
Yeah, I haven't put anything to not trigger it a second time, oops
Nope you do two short ones, the grass doesn't count actually. So it is the whole mushroom (count as a one short) and the whole blue one (count as a second short), the longer one would be after so it is just 2 short ones for now
That makes sense!! I’ll try it out later, ty!!
