Had fun with this! Seeing all the chickens just standing around waiting for a turn to die is hilarious. They don't have a clue whats going on! The slow-down effect is really good, gives you a chance to get away in time. very good!

funny game!

some feedback for the browser version: full-screen does not work properly (size of the gamescreen stays the same, only with full-screen black background); up/down arrow buttons scroll the browser window

Chaotic fun! You need a fullscreen option though because in Firefox the HTML page is keeping control of the up and down keys so the page scrolls when you try and move a chicken up or down. Nevertheless, great overall reinterpretation of Frogger - art, audio, everything.

Thank you so much for the feedback. Will do.

I audibly gasped a couple of times at the beginning when I got surprised by the cars. Very fun, kept me on my toes the entire time. I really liked how time slowed down right before a chicken got hit by a car (or dodged it). That's a very nice little feature, and I think it added a lot to the game.

Hilarious & so well made. Well Done.

lmfaooo this was great!  Loved that you gave bonuses for moving straight across. Managed to crash the game on like my 20th chicken after grabbing a feather on the bridge and landing right in front of an orange truck.  Anyway, loved the art, style and humor in this game -played really well and fun too -awesome work! :D
