Fun game! Like others below, I had to get blown up a couple times before realizing what was going on. The signal suddenly changing, or those speedy frogs themselves made for a harsh death sometimes, but I enjoyed it!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I'll definitely consider adding an in-game tutorial to make the game easier to understand next time (if I can get it done before the deadline, haha).

Oh nicely done. Easy to understand concept, polished and executed well, and nice sound effects. 

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

I put a lot of thought into choosing the sound effects.

I swear these frogs were after me when it  wasn't their signal :D

The game was relaxing and fun and it changes at the last stage where it becomes very chaotic, which I really liked!

I think you chose your music very well. I also notice that you have play tested or given a lot of thought designing your level, because your level progression was very smooth.  Fantastic job on making such clean stages!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the lovely feedback! I'm really glad you enjoyed the music and the level progression. I used free music assets, but I put a lot of thought into choosing the right tracks for the game.

I wish I’d had more time to balance the difficulty, though. I think I made the final stage a bit too difficult, and honestly, I still haven't managed to clear it myself!

Hi !

I had fun, well done :) The music contributes to a funny and relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a minigame. The game works well and I enjoy the concept. It's a basic gameplay but it works very well with the theme, its fun, and well balanced. Thanks !

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the kind feedback! I'm really glad you enjoyed the gameplay and the music!

Submitted(+1)

This was fun from start to finish! The theme was executed really well too, great job! (I can’t leave this comment without mentioning that banger of a track…really well done ^V^)

The game is very fun and the music is very good!

I only understood the instructions how to play when I reached the second level. At first I thought I had to move close to a frog to see if the radar turns green, which resulted in many very bad tries. After I reached level two I realized I can't catch anything as long as the indicator is black and so on... so... after that being out of the way, the game got a lot more enjoyable, before it felt very random. I am still not very good at it and didn't get that much further... probably would have if I hadn't spent so much time in the first level trying to figure it out 🙈 nice game

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the detailed feedback!

I'm glad you enjoyed the game once you got the hang of it. I can see how the rules might be confusing at first, so I'll keep that in mind for future improvements!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun to play! I think it needed a sound effect to indicate color change.

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback!

That's a great suggestion. An audio cue for the color change would definitely help!

Submitted(+1)

Music was definitely a standout :) I liked the difficulty curve

Developer

Thank you!! I'm really glad you enjoyed the music and the difficulty curve!

really fun lil mini-game! i think the music is gonna be stuck in my head, it's really catchy lol. nice job!

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I put a lot of thought into the sound effects and music, so I’m happy to hear that!

Submitted(+1)

Awesome idea :)

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you like the idea!

Submitted(+1)

I like the details you added like being able to toggle the HUD on/off, and giving a hint as to which way the frogs were going to go by their face direction. Made it a lot easier to weave between them and catch the ones I needed. I definitely had my palms sweating when I was close to winning a level, especially the later ones haha.

That background music is perfect btw, very catchy and found myself bobbing to it which helped reduce the pain whenever I lost :p

Great game, thanks for the fun time!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for noticing the frogs' facing directions! At first, I had them move in completely random directions, but it made their movements too unpredictable and the game too difficult.

The BGM is a free asset, but I took my time choosing one that would fit the atmosphere of the game.

Thanks so much for playing!

Banger tunes! Unfortunately I didn't quite understand what the signal itself was, so I spent quite a few times getting randomly blown up by the cute frogs! A tutorial would've been nice, or a brief description in the page itself! Great work though, look forward to playing your future games!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing!

I put a lot of thought into choosing the sound effects and music.

The rule was to catch the frogs that match the color of the Color Signal in the top-left corner of the screen.

You're right, I definitely should have included a tutorial or a short description on the game page!

Feels like it would be a perfect mario party minigame. Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! That's such a nice compliment!

I was going for the vibe of classic pixel art games, so I'm really glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! Love the pixel art and sound effects, and it has a really tight gameplay loop! A tutorial would be nice, though. I didn't quite understand what I was supposed to do at first. All the frogs looked the same to me, so I tried each one differently, and then they all exploded on me ._.

Developer

Thanks for playing!

I'm really happy you enjoyed the gameplay loop! I put a lot of effort into getting the pacing right, especially by tweaking things like the pause timings.

And yeah, a tutorial is definitely needed! I ran out of time to add one for this jam, but it's something I absolutely want to include.

  • Right off the bat, I like the sound effects
  • These are some very unpredictable/capricious frogs
  • I seem to have cleared stage 2 with only 2 red frogs (and 3 each of the rest)?
  • Definitely got hectic by the end of level 3 but I survived. I like the differing win conditions between the levels.

A good test of "how greedy am I going to get chasing these frogs." Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the great feedback!

I put a lot of thought into choosing the sound effects, so I’m glad you liked them! I’ve actually had the same thing happen with stage 2, and I’m still trying to figure out what causes it.

Submitted(+1)

Very nice! Fun, quick and understandable.
I think I was a bit unlucky in the second level, and had to wait quite a while for a third yellow frog to spawn, but it wasn't a big deal. I would also have liked a volume slider somewhere, the music was very catchy but a bit loud.
Overall good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

You're right, a volume slider would definitely be helpful. I'll keep that in mind for future games!

This game is sooo fun! Was a little confused at first what the signal meant, but once I figured it out everything was amazing. Great work!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing!

I felt the signal could be a little confusing too. Definitely something to improve on for future games!

Submitted(+1)

is a nice game . that music is so CRAZY. at first i thanked the circle that all ways changing it color is the signal:) but then i see that on top left on the screen has the color frog that you have to catch.

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing! 

I also felt that the signal in the top-left corner wasn't very easy to notice, so that's definitely something I could improve!

Submitted(+1)

hahaha that victory music stinger is CRAZY work.

Developer(+1)

Feels SO rewarding, right? LOL
