You're not playing Pocket Frog, Gnamer Gnome is! You'll need to play the game *through* them

This is a good little game-in-a-game. I like the design you've got for the game and the gameplay is also good. 1 thing I would change is that when "Start" is pressed, the player spawns on the right side, and they need to move themselves to the left side of the screen to get to the arrow buttons. I think it would be better if the player was on the side from the Start.
Other than that though it was enjoyable!
(My high score is 35).
What an incredible high score Sam, well done! We'll keep that adjustment in mind. Before we implemented the "press A to eat fly" mechanic, we realised that the player had no reason to walk over the glass, so that's why we placed him on the right side, it also means the player has to do a little mad-dash if they want a good score! Thanks for the comment and feedback!
Fun game, would like a bit more complexity in enemy types, or maybe different power ups, to add variety in game situations. But great work, especially visually
I love this! The art is so cute and the responsiveness from the controls is just right :) As someone else mentioned, the option of powerups/time extenders would be really cool if you're thinking of developing any further. Overall, you've worked really hard and produced a fantastic game - brilliant work <3
Very original idea and entertaining gameplay! I've always thought of a game where you play as the person that play's the game but thought it would be too tedious but this game executes this idea really well! The Sound effects and the music are just amazing! I couldn't figure out how to eat the flies on my first run and i think that could have been telegraphed better with an animation of the frog taking it's tongue out or just directly tell the player how to do it. The art style is very cute and the SFX and music matches it! I really didn't like that there was a time limit and no way to increase it which means there is a maximum high score. It would be way better if it had an enemy that you could lose to instead. But overall very charming game with a good twist, well done! Good luck on your future project's!
I wasn't expect the gameplay of your game lmao! I just love it, really good graphics, simple gameplay, which is really nice for a game jam, and an awesome sound design (I just LOVE the button's sfx and the music)
The art is realy nice ! The gameplay is simple but it has its charm ! Good job you 3 !
Great game, very creative idea, amazing art, loved playing it so far!(my high score is 26 as of writing this) Only problem is I thought I had to press a on the keyboard to collect flies.
