Did you use any third-party assets or skeleton code?
I used Typaway for music and sound effects. I also used fun logo generator for cover art.

Yeah, pixels :-D
I don't really know what to say, other than I really enjoyed this! it was really cute and you sold me pretty much instantly with the frog and the music.
Good platforming game. well done.
Not sure if it just scaled wrong on my screen but the camera was really close to the frog to the point where I couldn't really see where I was jumping to
thanks for the rate, generally it was close it wasn't a specific problem, would love to learn what you enjoyed from the game, Ill make sure to rate your game as well,
I like the use of a tongue as the main attack, the cuteness of the main character, and the use of flies instead of coins. As well as the general vibe of the game being nice and wholesome. Plot wise you could make a full game about trying to find your way home as a frog so I think that's a good idea as well. Honestly wasn't trying to be rude with the first comment about the camera- it's a small thing but it makes a lot of portions of the game unnecessarily hard when you cant see where you're jumping to
The frog is very cute. i like it
fun game to play! Enjoyed it a lot.
Great entry!
Nice little platformer you've got here :)
The visuals are nice and engaging and I really like the checkpoints and infinite lives, so I can try and fail as much as I want ^^
I think the camera always centered on the character makes your surrounding hard to read when you move. The fact that it's so zoomed in also force you to have a lot of "leap of faith" where you jump without seeing where you will land, which is a big problem for a platformer (unless you want to force your player to do something specific to know where they will land)
I would say the attack lacks a bit of range and/or duration, I've got killed several time because I attacked an enemy just a bit too early or just a bit too late which was frustrating.
Good job for all the work!
Great and concise art style, nothing felt out of place. The animations are cute and nice.
I believe the background could benefit from a parallax effect, and the camera could have been a little further out. Overall it was a fun quick game though!
thank you so much I enjoyed your game too
Nice work :)
It will just be good to have a better view on where you jump, with a camera not so close to the player.
The background is moving exactly with the player. So the feeling is a little strange.
thank you for the comment! While I had made multiple background frames, it ended up too small to fit and if I made it bigger it looked very unrealistic, didn't know how to fix it.
It looks and sounds very fun but suffers from some classic platformer problems.
I have no idea if I'm going to land on ground, on an enemy that kills me or in a pit which kills me. Some work with the camera would make it much more fun and playable!
I couldn't get very far because of this, but would have loved to play more of the content.
I think you have a nice art style and nice sound effects. The music gave me some good old mario kart vibes :D
A few things first - for small jam games zip>installer from what I know. ".msi" installer feels a lot safer than .exe one. Small view that makes you unable to react to enemies below you, which you don't see and don't bomk on head ;-; is annoying. Jumping is a little buggy (you can jump when falling)
But still!
It is pretty, it is a juicy, sounds and music are cool, idea is awesome too! I imagine a game with a bit better view, with player that could use their tongue in 4 directions, killing enemies and gaining some momentum from it!
Overall good job!
Glad you participated :3
