Really good and challenging game! I like the increase in difficulty over time.

I also like how I can jump through railings but I can't jump back into it so it's one way.

I was also really surprised the first time I died haha I didn't think it would be that bloody

Overall really good!

btw I'd appreciate if you checked out my submission too :D

Very nice frogger-like game.

I personally dislike the use of different scale of pixels in the sprites, also known as "mixels", which gives the different assets an inconsistent look. For example the carrots have a much higher resolution than the cars.

The gameplay is really fun and the additional mechanics work really well. 

Great job!

Thank you very much for your suggestions for improvement. As a beginner, this helps me a lot to consider them in future projects.

Very fun!  Collecting the carrots adds a neat dynamic to the game.

Amazing entry! There is just so much to like about it. The polish including the art, the music, the sound effects, etc are amazing. I don't know if the original frogger game had collection as a mechanic but I really appreciate it in this one. Moreover, the fences are a great challenge. Also appreciated is the high score and health system.  They introduce a lot of replayability. I couldn't stop myself from playing till I completed all the levels. And the difficulty escalation is perfect. The design decisions are brilliant and the polish is great. Any criticism I make will be nitpicking. Kudos!

Wow, thank you so much for your extremely kind comment. It was really a lot of work in a very short time. It's only my second game, so I'm even more happy about your appreciation!

Nice frogger like game. I like the idea that you have to collect carrots.

I always feel sorry for the bunny though when it gets flattened :(

Developer

Yes that's brutal, sorry for that xD

Interesting concept,  but it isn't polished.

Developer

Thank you for your comment.
Could you please go into more detail? What are you missing? I just adjusted the fonts and added some other small improvements.

the movement isn't smooth, 

if u walk left, right u cant go up or down.

try svg textures.

Developer

Whew, the diagonal movement was a tough challenge in combination with the step based movement. But I got it to work. Thanks for the idea, I hadn't missed the feature, but I think it's more comfortable now.

I have learned again a little bit, thank you so much!
