Nice work! Since the puddles are an important mechanic, maybe you can make them do something when you land in them to give the player positive feedback and let them know they're playing correctly. (Like a splashing animation, or a simple color change effect, etc)

Great job. I think it could have used collectables randomly spawning for points or something like that to have a reason to not just stand in the center puddle jumping.

Unicycle Game (Trijam 183)Pretty good looking visuals. I was a bit lost when playing but after playing for a minute I think I knew what was going on. I dont think it matched the theme much and am not sure what the green bar was but I still found myself hopping like my froggy-life depended on it. :)
An important feature of short games is the feeling of compulsion and you got it.

Pretty fun, it would be awesome to have a score counter or something like that :)

Sewer CruiseThe frog is really cute, did you draw it during the jam? :O
I had a hard time understanding how it relates to the theme tho.
But anw, jumping is always fun and the sound effect adds character to the little froggy.

Barrel HighwayThanks! I used a premade frog asset from here: https://levitigus.itch.io/cute-frog-sprite
For the theme, I didn't really had a lot of time to think since i had only 3 hours, however it said unconventional movement and I came up with the idea of a frog jumping from puddle to puddle to avoid heating up, that's why when you aren't in a puddle your speed and jump speed decreases(also the frog's color becomes more yellowy to indicate that it's heating up).
