It's a good entry for your first game jam!  I'd recommend adding some kind of score tied to how far you progress.  The artwork was good, but could have done with some level of animation.

It was quite a tough game.  More difficult than Frogger.  You might consider increasing the time delay between enemy shots.

Cool art,  I wish I could playh it with a joystick. I had a hard time resembling Frogger.

Yeah i agree that i strayed a bit too far from frogger. Im happy that you liked the art! It was my first time using Aseprite

It is too big on my PC

Hard to call this one a frogger like but the mechanics are really cool. It took me a while to figure out you could actually move up off the screen to get to the boss. Thought it was a bug since I did it on accident the first time (you can just keep going down). The gameplay loop is solid and fun. Having the option to break barrels with my health made the game a lot more dynamic. If a heart barrel was opened I could break a cannonball barrel and then get my health back. Very solid entry overall!

You've put a smile on my face, thank you! :D I did forget to limit how far down you can go. It didn´t even cross my mind that you could, lol. And I agree that it could have been more Frogger-like, I don´t suspect I'll score high on that one. But thanks again for your appreciation and tips!

Great game. Just the resolution is off.

Developer

Thank you. What is off with the resolution? I haven't noticed that myself

I loved the unique twist on the classic Frogger style gameplay. It was really fun to navigate the added challenge of avoiding incoming ship attacks

Thanks! That was the intention. I wanted it to be optional to take down the ships on the sides. If you want a challenge you can head straight to the boss and fight all three ships at once .
