A short game made within 48 hours about frogs getting to safety, and cars making sure frogs aren't getting anywhere close to safety.

Controls: Mouse-Click only. Hold click to accelerate/charge jump.

Pro Tip: Running secondary frogs over multiple times nets you bonus points!

I love the frog sounds! I think this is the best idea I've come across so far

From another team who took the Frogger route, absolutely fantastic work.  Leaps and bounds beyond what we did and such a cool concept!  Ya'll deserve high marks.

Super fun, hilariously hard to control the car

Super fun! Playing against your past selves is always a fun mechanic, but there's something special about maneuvering around your own cars as the frog. My only suggestion would be having a timer in which the player has to get to the pond / run over the frog and get to the exit, to give a greater sense of urgency, since driving recklessly as the car makes frog gameplay way more hectic and interesting. Overall, great job!

Thank you! There is a timer actually that increases your score!
It used to be a lose-condition, but it wasn't really fun in the later levels to have to restart them from the beginning, instead of drifting around.

Ahh that makes a lot of sense, I suppose drifting and driving recklessly is more fun than having to reset constantly because you aren't being boring with your driving, thanks for the clarification!

YES! Our thoughts exactly!
