I got 166k, but I'm not sure if using the flashlight is worth it, I just clicked frogs 🙈 hail to the juice 🤪 fun, but even on my gtx4070 it was a bit laggy. looks and played fun, sound fits very well. good job

Thanks for playing!! The flashlight forces the frogs to signal which of them has a key in each wave. It's unclear enough that I wish I presented it differently, and it's much more punishing to miss a frog than it is to not get a key, so you found a balance issue that I didn't have time to address. Hope you had some fun regardless!
As for the lag, after being perplexed by some people with great systems reporting that they're not having a smooth experience, I've found a common thread in Mozilla Firefox of all things. The game runs like crap in it and I genuinely don't understand why. So if I had to guess, I'd guess you're on Firefox, but if you aren't I'd love to know what browser you're on (assuming you have a great internet connection, which I'm assuming you do if you can afford a good gpu in this day and age hahahhaha). Anyway I appreciate the feedback and I'd like to know more about where you're playing, since this jam is the first time I've found out the browser can be a serious problem in this equation.
I've been using and loving Vivaldi as my web browser lately. After the jam I'm going to test and see if it's Itch's SharedBufferArray support setting, which is marked as experimental but seemed to greatly improve my game's performance. I wouldn't be surprised if an experimental setting on the host platform wouldn't play nicely with every setup. In retrospect, I may not have needed that after some other optimizations, but I'll have to live with my decision until after the jam. Anyway, thanks again for playing, and your game is up next in my queue! :D
