I liked the art!
The gameplay was a bit hard to understand but I figured it out. It's a good gameplay idea that works :)
I got stuck at the level with the 3 whirlpools blocking the way.

Good puzzle game with a unique art style!

The music is a bit small, I didn't notice it at the first 5 mins.

Great job!

Gorgeous little animations, and fun idea! I stopped playing on the fourth or fifth level with the one spear frog and the two snakes; I played the level six times and couldn't understand what else I could do to stop losing. Would love to see some sort of visual clarification between losing due to player dying and due to your warriors being killed. Well done!

Beat the game, took a second try to figure out the last level. Well done!
