A frog jump. Cars are quick and unfortunately I got to see the frog get splashed by speeding cars many times. It was a happy time when I reached the finish line. But scoring is pretty odd, I couldn't understand how it works.

@tero-pulkkinen Oops, just added how the scoring works here. It's one point when you jump onto a car and five points when you make it to an exit. Making it to the end doesn't give you any points.

It needs instructions.
It was not clear that the frog is supposed to land on the 'button' I though he was supposed to reach the outside.
It also needs a better way to see where the exit is. When in an outer loop you are travelling so fast that the exit goes flying past way to quickly to respond

haha, this is a cool idea :-)

Really enjoyed this version of frogger

I agree with Scraggle that it was hard to find the exit, not only because of speed but also the camera zoom level

Thank you for the game

Hello from the other side 🐸 of the road~

Took a couple of tries before I made it. Good difficulty, not too easy, not too hard. Great move to have the cars increase in speed with every loop to ramp up the challenge.

And adorable graphics with lovely gradients 💚

Only complaint would be that the camera is a little janky when landing in a new car, and perhaps it would have been nice to be able to go the other way too if you went past the ring with the froghole cover (big bonus points for this pun!!!)

TOADALLY a great twist on Frogger! 🤓🤓

Overall it is a fun game and I like the idea. :slight_smile:

Having the big or infinite number of roads would have made the game more challenging and interesting over the long run. In addition to that, providing the points to player once the "finish-line" is reached would improve the reward system.

The idea is very good. I also liked the artwork.
