Had some problems figure it out the controls (instructions are kinda hidden), but when I found them, I really like the game. A bit strange that you only hit the eyes, nose and mouth, but it is ok. I like the variety of patterns of attack, the sprites are very nice, and the music is ok.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I didn't go into detail about the instructions about the controls because all Pico games have to the same inputs but I should have done anyway. Thanks for playing!

Yo your game is hard... I like it

Developer

Thank you! It aint called froggy heaven haha

Submitted(+1)

We really loved the concept! Fun and hard, it makes a good end level boss battle!

And also we love you put the frog as an enemy and not as the protagonist!

Developer(+1)

 Thanks! I couldn't think of a well known enough enemy for the frog so I flipped it

Looks great! I think this one is my favorite of the games to take the boss fight approach to this jam. Great job! I only ever had trouble once the nose and the tongue were coming at me at the same time, everything else was no problem :P

Developer(+1)

 Thank you so much! Yes I agree, nose and mouth is hard haha

The art style is amazing! And the frog looks funny :D

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

The music is amazing and the whole fight is quite fair. Kudos!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! The music was the last thing I added at 2am haha, it's my first time doing any music for a game!

I loved this!  Perfect difficulty and the art and music were great!  Loved when he sneezed out that bullet curtain! xD  Awesome work!! :D

Thank you! Everything looks retro when you make it in PICO-8 haha

Submitted(+1)

its really well designed and its really fun and i like that you dont play as the frog, i just think it could be a bit more polished. 

I think he should do something about that nose bleed.

Developer(+1)

It could definitely be more polished, you're not wrong! I started on the Sunday and ran out of time, haha. Maybe I'll come back to it!

Cool game. LOVE THE GRAPHICS

Developer

Thank you! I really wanted to do a little more with the bg but I ran out of time haha. Thanks for the feedback :D

No Prob! 

I was also wondering if you would like to try my game out. Its pretty cool and haven't gotten many reviews :(

Fun take on the limitation, and it was kinda funny and gruesome how you have to shoot the frogs eyes (and other facial features). Being a bullet hell game, it feels like the hit box could be a bit more lenient

Developer

You're right, the hitboxes are a little overkill, I may make the flybox a bit smaller. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

It's fine but how you defeat the boss (at least in the second phase) isn't really clear. the 1st phase feels like spam

Developer

Hi! You just shoot the parts that are shooting at you! Also it's a bullet hell, so it's sorta meant to be spam haha. Thanks for the feedback anyway!

Submitted(+1)

A very fun bullet hell with cute graphics and a great music! 5 stars!

Developer

Thanks for the kind words!

Submitted(+1)

Definitely fun, even though I don't like the fact that the wings of the fly can get hit, it feels unnatural to me.

You should definitely try my game I you like these bullet-hell things ^^

Developer

Thanks! Yeah the hitbox detection isn't great, I apologise haha. I was pretty limited on time. I'll give yours a go!
