At first I didn't like the 8 directional shooting but after playing for a bit I found it very satisfying to kite around enemy's then turn around and get a triple kill. I think a main reason for that is because shooting and killing feels so juicy. Great job and good implementation of "mode". (High score of 230 btw)

Using HP as ammo was clever idea! Making them bounce between frogs was juicy. Hard game tho, thats not bad. tho.

Really loved it great job!

Really solid entry.  the visuals and varius small touches like the way the hearth bounce off enemies is really satisfying or the dash upon taking a heart.  I did appreaciete the sacrifice attached to the shooting as it really center the expirience about moving in the correct place. The controls scheme is a thing I'm still not sure. Maybe it would have worked better with a full mouse control to move around(and easy port to the touch screen for phones?) just wondering and pondering but overall I liked the game a lot!

I really liked the concept and the artstyle is super aesthetic and cute! However, for me it felt really awkward aiming at the enemies with the arrow controls. I found myself often missing meaning I'd lose my health and would need to just run away. I wish there was aiming with a mouse control with the shooting. It's a shame I personally couldn't grasp the controls because all the modes and effects were sick as!

Thank you so much for taking the time to play our game !! This is great feedback and actually something we were considering - we ended up sticking to the arrow keys to try give that tough 'arcade like' feel but also it's really helpful to hear how you found this ! Thank you :)

Love the artstyle and music was very fitting as well. I love the different modes that you put and with it, it allowed a lot of replayability to the game which I thought was nice. Not much feedback from me. I just liked the game and had fun! :)

Amazing job! Incredibly well done. The different modes made the game so exciting and the visuals were so polished and pleasing to look at. Had a really fun time with this!

This is an absolutely solid experience.  SO much polish and detail was put into this game.  I love the fact that the different modes alter the gameplay in such interesting ways and that you unlock new modes between playthroughs.  Also the fact that there are so many unique modes makes this game like crazy addictive haha.

I also really like whatever you've done with the border how it like gets bigger to encompass frogs which are entering the gamespace as well as hearts.

Fun game! I LOVED the presentation, with how it incorporates itself into the main pages design, and the art felt cute aswell! Only gripe that moving around and attacking feels a bit stiff because you cant shoot enemies behind you while moving in the other direction ( though this is just me ;) ).  Could also use a little tune in the background. I liked how the modes made the game keep feeling fresh!


Well put together game, small in scope but had a big HEART! Well done!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing!! We have a tune but because of some limitations on our web version the music takes some time to play depending on the browser. Thank you for the kind feedback :)

Very fun! Really like the frogs and the artstyle. Although it took me a bit to get used to the controls/gameplay loop, I really enjoyed the modes you added, made the game a lot more dynamic!
