The game is ok, other then the fact this has nothing to do with the theme. Seriously, where's the mode part.

I do like the idea of your jump not being reliable though while moving, so I'll give you that.

This is a funny concept for a game it's amazing just how many times I would get caught off guard by my character not jumping. The sprite art was nice I love the way the frog looks.

Frog is in red headband mode, makin moves. Game looks great, but wish there was some tunes! Fun game, love the little guy.

This game is infuriating at first when your fighting the game. But once you stop trusting your jump, you get into the zone. Really fun, and great design! Thank you

Interesting game! I liked the troll-y aspect of not being in complete control of your character's jump.


If you were to go back to this game, I think you could progress the core challenge by introducing new unwanted alterations to your characters movemens (such as zones where your left/right movement is swapped, areas with different gravities, or perhaps a place where you jump randomly even if you don't press the button). It would also be neat to have SFX and Music.

Really cool idea to make the jump an untrusted mechanic... I had a hard time at first for figuring it out but eventually I did complete it! :)

I think it would be even better if the jump(or not) mechanic aplied for when the player is standing still, because once you learn that you can trust jumping when you're not moving it's really easy to complete.

Overall I had a lot of fun, it's always nice to play some classic platformer game :)))

It could use some music and sfx tho...

I liked it, really like the guy and the environment! Took me waaaaay too long to realize that failing to jump was part of the game lmaooooooo. Wish you guys had time to include music or sfx but hey that's the jam, right?

The controls dont quite seem to always fire (sometimes I press jump and it doesnt jump) but nice job!  I really like the sprites
