The bubbles are mostly to add to the look, but if you hit one your own shooting is delayed a little. So a tad bit of gameplay involved...

Much too slow paced for my liking. Overall decent game!

Fun little game. Would be great to play on a bigger window and if you could move forward faster.

Screen needs to bigger and game should be a little faster paced (horizontally). Other than that, good job!

I really liked the look, and the game was kind of fun to play.
I would have loved it if there had been a way to go up, so you wouldn't have to wait

This was a small cute game. I really liked the audio on this one, and the graphics were pretty good too! This is definitely a good 2 button game.

I kinda felt like the Pollywog moved forward too slowly. I think your game would be more engaging if the pollywog moved forwards a little faster. Also, it would have been nice if the screen had been bigger.

Nice little entry :)
A bit more variation and horizontal movement would be nice

Pro:
+ Simple but cool concept, liked the choice of control
+ Cute graphics
Con:
- Too slow and hard to control, collision is very unforgiving
Obs:
o Bigger screen would be nice

Good job!

Cool game. More of a Slippy Toad than a Flappy Bird.
