Honestly your game feels not finished. I kinda liked the idea but overall I'm not sure what's my objective but I guess it's surviving 11 days. Also game has frozen for me on day 4.

Hey there! Glad you were able to finish the game despite the stress. It's tough! I liked the dig mechanic. It worked really well with no errors. Your frog names were top tier, even though after getting my second frog, both of them had the same name but that's fine :laughing: The egg defense was interesting, and movement also worked really well. But there was definitely a little lack of clarity on what was going on. The game stopped progressing after day 3. But cool ideas and theme. Good work!

Hey I'm not sure if I was doing it wrong but I couldn't get the game to progress, I liked the idea though, the music, sound and graphics were reminiscent of the kind i game I played as a kid, so nice work on the atmosphere!
