Cute little game, no challange at all, just jump around and search for your pond! Allthough it woul'd be nice if fireflies would be more usefull, but still love it!

The mechanics of lighting up the terrain with fireflies are really cool. And the sound effects, music and art are all great. Great job!

Nice little game! I'm not sure about the controls, since most things are controlled with the mouse, maybe it would be better to make the frog hop with the mouse?

I kept expecting a jump scare or something because of background ambiance. That said, the game was straightforward and the art was great. Nice little game!

Enjoyed the game a lot! Frogs are one of my favourite animals. :smile: It wasn't immediately obvious what tiles had collision and which didn't - perhaps increasing the contrast or an outline on walls would help a lot. The firefly mechanics are a fun one - the choice between leaving them around to see easier to explore or get a big temporary boost of visibility was really interesting; it reminded me of the breakable checkpoints in Shovel Knight in a way. I'd love to see more player decisions like this!

A nice simple game. Difficult to discern direction through the map. Maybe the fireflies could be positioned to lead you

This game creates an interesting loop of stress / relief. Seeing the first blue pixels of the pond feels satisfying because the dark visuals and sinister music create a lot of tension. Also getting lost can be frustrating but I think in a good way. It seems to be the aim of the game: getting you lost and despaired until you find a firefly and ultimately your way back home.

It can get a bit heavy/repetitive on the spacebar in longer levels though.

Great job!
