Guys! You have beautiful screenshots in the description, but I can't play your game — it's broken. All I could do was get to this location. It seems like you didn't have enough time to finish the game :(

Well I managed to talk to a frog..
If I head out BEFORE the conversation I think I can lick some plants?...
But If I have a talk to the frog BEFORE I go out, I get a cutscene of a smoking frog that never ends.
Lovely art and music though!

Asking for reviews, when you don't review other people's games, is not cool.

Frogs! Ribbit ribbit

Very beautiful graphics, too bad you did not finish the gameplay

Frog with a pipe made me laugh tbh, haha

also... Quoating you, "Tiny friends must look over one another." Please rate other games instead of just asking for ratings, i understand that this is your first game and probably first game jam, but thats just how it works - you dont rate, you dont get raited

You still have 5 days to up your carma so you'll show up in searches more, especially with a team it is really easy to do that! Play and rate-comment like 5 games each so you can catch up and that'll be enought to pass the 20 threshold

(also updating the game after the jam is against the rules, i think-)

@prostocupoftea we're glad you liked the game, especially the pipe scene :)

as for the ratings, thank you for looking out for us.( @thatsommes too )
we shall take this into consideration in the future to avoid such hiccups.



yours truly,

Frog.

The art work is so well put together, it's clear you've put a lot of effort into it! The frog jumping animation is particularly delightful! Everything feels very cosy and cute - hope you manage to take it a bit further after the jam!

@jhax on behalf of the team ( especially the design one ) we are grateful for your kind words, it means a lot when people appreciate our efforts


once we manage to work on the game post-ludum dare, we'll make sure to let you know :) <3

WOWW!!! This art is absolutely GORGEOUS! I love the almost watercolor aesthetic with the pixel art, ya'll employed the palette so well like oh my god, goals. The parallax had so much depth, I loved it! This was the most 3D-like 2D game I've seen in a while. It's a shame you didn't get all the gameplay in, I'm not sure if I was missing something but I couldn't seem to progress past digging up the worm. But wow, this is a beautiful and charming start to a game and I hope you continue working on it! :heart:

@aurailus we thank you lots for the amazing support you are showing! we tried making it as visually pleasing as possible, and we are happy that we succeed in doing so :)

to get the worm you must collect the shovel and dig in the dirt pile. actually picking it up is the tricky part. you can try pressing E multiple times. afterwards return to Toad

given the support we received, we will consider continuing the game. feel free to follow us on Itch.io or we can return with an update here

with love,

The Silent Pigeon Team <3

Whoa! Nice graphics and neat aesthetic. Impressive work. The controls in order to move the frog are efficient. I like the interaction in-game ang the main gameplay. Well done ++
