Bonjour,
Merci pour cette démo qui est vraiment bluffante, magnifique travail!
Hâte de voir le jeu complet que je vais tout de suite Kickstarter ;)
merci beaucoup!!
I can't really explain why but I've been playing 1-1 to clear it as fast as possible for about 5 hours for the past 5 days I think. For some reason I'm hooked to speed running a gb game's demo, send help please.
lmao that's amazing. First KKC speedrunner!? I'm excited to see what you can do when the whole game's out!
Easy, Intuive, Great Visuals, Great Music.
A nice mix between Kirby and Mario.
I discovered this on reddit.
10/10
Thanks for checking it out!
This is real nice
I loved it , can't wait to see the completed game < 3
I loved it!
Really nice Kirby-style platformer! The music was fantastic too.
Simply wonderful, I love it.
Cute art style, bonus points for a frog wearing a hat. Appreciate that you included support for controllers, too many games don't include it
This was a fun little game! You should disable the gun during the boss fights or make them immune to bullet damage.
This game is pretty cool
this game is adorable! i love the way it looks, and it has so much personality. can't wait for the full game!
This game is awesome, good job!!! I hope you make another one
i loved the game!
Such a cute little game, very nostalgic
I love frogge
Neat game! Some game I have played add a lot of attack abilities, but it often is to much and I just end up using one or two. This did the perfect amount and I found situations for both gun and tongue. Again, Neat game! Well done!
I had so much fun trying it out ! Well done, the music is really good and the game is fun ! Can’t wait to play the finished version !
Thanks! Scott Semanski made the music & yea he did a stellar job :)
A decent game elevated by its froggy charm.
The
movement is not as fluid as I'd like it to be and theboss animation needs more frames imo. However, it's fun to pick up and play. It has a variety of options and enemies to explore.I look forward to seeing this fleshed out.
Huh, my save game is gone. =(
Oh well, I played thru it again. I managed to beat the bonus level too (it was a challenge).
doesn't save bc you are playing it on web version
It saves on web for me 🤔 I think the web version's save file is stored in the browser cookies, so if you switch between computers or have certain browser cookie settings that might cause the save to not work.
It's very cool, but i don't know how to interact with items in browser? Skeleton beside the campfire.
Nice game! Really enjoyed this, awesome work.
Demo looks great! Had a lot of fun playing it.
Very nice! Only bit of criticism i can give is that tapping the jump button makes you go to high to the jump limit imo.
This game was really fun to play! I hope more content is released in the future! I had fun playing it!
This is simple and great with such a fun Kirby + Mario + Shooty boots! keep up the good work would love to see a larger project in the future with a fun retro bite sized fun level action and platformer.
Thanks! More is on the way ;)
hell yeah happy to hear!
!HOWEE PARNER!
i hear mario music, great game, hope you update it soon.
This game is delightful. Truly a joy to play. Feels like going back to childhood. Thank you!
thanks for playing and for the kind words! :)
NICE GAME! the coyote time is great. But when I go with the dog cowboy I bocome invisible until y get damaged,
yea sorry about that bug, I’ll try to get it fixed this week. Thanks for playing!
Just played it. I really loved it! Sure there are things that I hope will be ironed out but as a demo it was pretty polished. One issue I ran into was on level 2 when activating the first save point. I didn't yet have enough coins to save the checkpoint but he offered me $100 coins I think (forgot exactly what he said) for one of my lives or hearts (forgot that too lol). Anyway after that when it played the saving animation and music, the dog cowboy was still there but the frog went completely invisible. I was still controling him but I couldn't see him. He re-appeard after I got hit by an enemy.
Whoops I have an idea as to what might cause that bug. Thanks for the heads up! I’ll have a fix for it soon.
Will check the demo later but wow this looks fun!
Your game looks really nice. Is it possible you can upload your game in pocket format too?
Thanks! And yea I can add a .pocket file alongside a patch later this week :)
Great. Thanks for your quick reply. I’m looking forward to play your game.
The game was really fun! The frog having a a big gun is just funny to me
Hi! We played your game on stream and really enjoyed it!
Downloaded this about a week a go and just got around to playing it this morning. Really like what is there so far. Keep going! I'd like to see a difficult setting for the game and maybe longer levels. The camp fire guy being towards the end of each level seems strange, maybe this should be the halfway point. Also maybe have his cost tiered. $5 for checkpoint only, $5 for health, $5 for ammo and then maybe something like $12 for all three? IDK, just a thought.
that was really good, the level design it's great and the art style is stunning, but the animations could be more alive in some areas, would deinitely play more
GOTY
Made a video
Really nice demo! Would definitely play more.
I think the boss battle could be improved by varying the boss pattern more, maybe the rock pops up in different places or the boss stops at more than just the two edges.
Really good game!
