The Frog King

I can't reach the golden heart or go further in the game, because the jumping height seems to be too short. Is this a bug or am I missing something in controls?

Zupoman: try utilising the bounce!

Cute art!

I got to the frog king, though I'm not sure if I beat him or not. The jumping height is a tiny bit too short to be fun...I could bounce off frogs in some cases (like to get the heart), but if the frogs jump down you can't do that so it's pretty tough.

Thanks! If you jump at the top of your bounce you can get a bit higher. But I'll take that feedback for future projects!

Not bad

Cute art and funny sounds. A bit too short IMO, only one normal heart and only one golden heart to collect (or am I missing something?).

Zupoman: thanks! And yes, definitely too short - I was planning on at least 3 levels and just ran out of time.

Cute and fun game. Nice job!

Really cool game, just a few small suggestions. Maybe you could make it so the ghosts aren't destroyed upon collision with the player but simply have a few invincibility frames so the player is able to get away. Also some platforms seem impossible to reach but I found you can jump ontop of the corpses of the frogs to get up there. Nice game :D

Good entry! Graphics were a bit blurry but otherwise fine. Keep at it!

Nice fun game was really hard. some of the mechanics seems kind of stupid until i realized the entire point of the game is to lead frogs not kill them. wasn't a huge fan of the art although it wasn't terrible.

Fun platformer! A little bit short though.

Was NOT good!

How the hell do I beat the frog king? :P

I really like the music by the way! I know it's "just" a bass line, but it's quite long and varied. I think it works well with the frogs.

Water, good for frogs, bad for ☺

Tijn: thanks! Best tactic I think is to have at least 2 hearts and just rush in and jump via the ledge. Some guy beat him with 4 full hearts, I can't do that!

Not a bad game, although the real monster is the frog king who was an asshole and turned your friends into frogs to make you kill them. CURSE YOU FROG KING.

hehe, justinooncx, well done on beating the cursed frog king!

Once I got the timing of the higher jump down, it was fun nailing them. I liked the smiling frogs, and the ghosts were an interesting addition. Ultimately, my main strategy was to avoid killing frogs so as to not have to deal with the ghosts.

I found the king very difficult. In fact, after trying a number of times, I downloaded the code and gave myself 300000000 health. Ironically, once I did that, I beat him without needing it, and beat him in the real version as well. I guess the trick is confidence.

richardjs: hah, inventive :) I agree that he is too hard. In the post-compo version I've changed it so it's a step, not a hole. Makes jumping much easier.

Thanks for playing and commenting!

Good game, it's hard in some places, sound is plesent, and gameplay is simple. Well done. =)

For such innocuous graphics, the game itself is rather morbid with frog corpses and the bouncing there-on. As a shortcut to the extra heart and the top right next to the frog king lair, jump on a frog and push its carcass just over the edge of a platform, then jump under him and keep up pressed: Infini-jump! Use this on the left sides of the second platform and the first platform after the water for quick access to the extra heart and the frog king, respectively.

Anyway, fun game.

haha you found the corpse-copter bug! well done and thanks for playing :)

A very simple platformer.

nice! Had fun playing!

nice! Had fun playing!
All your Bass are belong to us =D

I reach the golden hearth but its too hard to jump big square behind the water.

Challenging game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/t2uXuiSquSk

thanks! had fun watching!

MAnimal: I totally agree :)
