Hey congrats on your very first jam! It's a really big accomplishment, definitely take the time to enjoy the post-jam hype. Now on to your game: it was fun! I really like the style. The flooded forest idea is pretty cool and the unique colors of the trees with the vibrant blue water makes for a pretty neat palette. The audio, while not too fancy, did its job.

The boss was fun to fight and the game felt good. I do feel like the dash maybe covered too much distance to where it was harder for me to estimate where I'd land. So I actually ended up beating the boss without the dash at all, which added some nice challenge to it. I do feel like the ranged attack is a little too useful. So maybe if the player didn't have a dash they could spend a bit of their stamina by using the ranged attack. But I'm not here to tell you how to design your own game.

The design is overall really good! While I think the relevance to the theme could have been a bit stronger, the game itself was quite fun. Keep up the good work!

Hey, thanks for such a great feedback! in terms of ranged attack I actually find melee way easier to play with so i guess its matter of the preference : P. Drawback from range is longer inability to move than with melee ( i dont recall corectly but melee is like 200 ms vs 400 ms on ranged or smth alike).  And melee has huge range aswell so u dont need to run into a boss to damage him : >

Yeah for sure, I definitely used a mix of melee and ranged. But I suppose it all depends on the maximum length of the frog's tongue. Either way, the removal of the dash could make for a little hard mode challenge or something haha

Well rn time between moves is 1 sec into 0.33s on the second phase. But this is already planned as drinking game for new years eve with 0s between attacks  I've already tested that and getting hit 6 times with a tongue in a second is indeed fun challenge : D. Also dash gives much needed invincibility frames so u can dodge bullets.
