Very funny idea, it was always depressing whenever I squashed the frogs myself

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yep, worst part of the game for sure.

Press F (for Frog)

Brilliantly chaotic fun game. So many laughs playing this one, soooo well done!

Developer

Thanks, we're happy you enjoyed it :)

Art style is phenomenal, another friend of the frogs I see :). Car controls great and the collisions work tremendously. I also love how squishing a frog made the frog remains drag under the car by its wheels, a nice juicy touch. Great work honestly.

Developer

Thanks heaps for the comments and checking out our game :)

I love the chaotic car controls! Very smooth. The art style is really cool too. 

Developer

Thanks for playing and the comment :)

I love the art style and the sounds :) It was pretty horrifying to get a frog ran over and its green guts trailed all over D: 

Nice frog game :)

Developer

Ah, I see you're a dev of culture as well :) Thanks for playing!

Developer

All the frog devs unite!

Great idea!
I really imagine, that I play as Pepe (from memes) and as protagonist, I feel some sadness when squashed frogs. =/
Well done!

Developer(+1)

Lol, maybe we should have leaned into the whole Pepe thing. Thanks for playing :)

Great game that fits the theme and is fun to play! I personally think the controls are good and feel natural. The only problem I had was that after a couple of minutes the cars started piling up which made it super hard to play.

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yep the idea is the longer you last the more vehicles get spawned and the harder it is to save the frogs but for sure it ends up becoming quite hectic.

Great idea for a game and well polished. I agree with the complaints about the controls not being what you would expect from a driving game. The splat trails are great.

Proud frog defender

We thank you for your service.

Absolute chaos, I love it. I definitely killed more frogs than I saved. I love the visceral squishing sound when one gets run over and you start leaving that little trail behind you. Really nice work. PROTECT THE FROGS

Developer

Thanks for playing and your comments:)

I saw other people mentioning the controls. While they are not bad and can help with quick changes in direction. I did find myself killing the frogs myself  more than the traffic due to my intuition of how the car is going to move butted up against the control scheme. This fight of intuition vs reality is what was causing me a feeling of frustration. 

I like the idea though and the art was on point. Everything else seemed smooth. 

Developer(+1)

Appreciate you checking it out and giving the feedback. I think you nailed the point about the controls being intuition vs reality. I think the best thing would have been to provide both control schemes and let the player choose. Thanks again for playing :)

Submitted(+1)

fun game! I actually like the controls and think they work well. I loved the little details you put in such as the cars leaving a green trail after running over a frog, and the drivers expression changing after a frog dies. the art is super cute and the game is really well made, good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing, happy you enjoyed it.

ho and another little thing - for an extra tiny bit of polish you can fade the car sound effect in and out, right now it feels weird when it starts and stops abruptly.

Developer

Great point, thanks for that :)

Submitted(+1)

Chaotic fun, excellent! I didn't mind the controls, in fact I consider it a double reversal: instead of controlling the car as a vehicle, you control it as you would a person (the driver, perhaps?).

Developer

Thanks for playing, and thank you for the feedback! 

Developer

Thanks for playing. And yeah, I like your spin on the controls, in that they too have had a  had a "role reversal" lol.

I really enjoyed this game, but as iffalsepanic mentioned, the controls didn't work out I thought they would, instinctively and it was slightly frustrating when I kept running the frog over myself.

In a way I guess that was part of the fun as I did laugh when it happened. Good job.

Developer

Thanks for checking it out. Fair call regarding the controls, We'll probably add an alternative push up to accelerate and left/right to steer post jam to give the player that choice. Happy you had some laughs while playing :)

Developer

Thanks for playing! And thank you for the genuine feedback!

This game is hillarious!

My only "complaint" is with the controls. I kept trying to use left and right to steer the car, but it always goes straight away in the cardinal directions.

Other than that, I had a great time "accidentally" hitting frogs. :-D

Developer (1 edit)

Hi, thanks for playing. We originally had the controls set to use up to accelerate, left/right to steer but found it was a little too cumbersome for the small play area and required finer controls to navigate around the frogs and push out other cars and that's why we went with the cardinal directions (I understand it's a bit weird at first though). Glad you had a fun time playing :)

It's hilarious and sad at the same time, especially the stained tire marks XD

Developer(+1)

True, we were torn about leaving the stained tire marks in there :P

This was so much fun to play! Some of those jerks aim right for the little buggers. SAVE THE FROGS!

Developer

Lol, hope it was satisfying to smash them out of the way :P

The same hour you uploaded I played this game. It was great! GG! The art kinda reminds me of a math textbook doodles. GG!

Developer

Thanks for checking it out! I can see the whole textbook thing regarding the art :)

Developer

Thanks for playing!
