Don't hold your breath, but I might add this stuff later. Very unlikely at this point now that I am moving on from this game.

  • Different weather
    • Frogs need some rain now and then

Heres what i found:

    In the keybinds menu, the 0 is really small and the plus and minus are missing

    Also in keybinds on mobile (android) if you spam tap around a keybind near the edge it can delete the frog on that keybind and then also the sound of that frog will be constantly playing while youre in the keybinds menu

    On android idk if this is for other stuff to but there appears to be no way to go back to the main menu once you go to the place where the frogs sing

Thank you for the feedback! It's been a while since I've messed around with this project.

I'm not sure what you mean about the zero being really small (see the below image). However, I do see that the plus and minus seem to be missing from the font. That is something I can for sure fix.


On your android points. Do you use the keybinds on Android? I am just realizing that for 99% of people it is unlikely that someone will have a keyboard for their android device so it might be best to just disable the menu altogether for the android version.

I think I have found that stuck sound in the keybinds menu before... but since it is not that critical, I don't think I spent any time tracking it down. As for frogs disappearing. As long as they reappear upon hitting the default button, it doesn't seem too much of an issue to me, though obviously annoying.

You are right about no way back to the menu for android... There's no escape key on phones... is there. I should add one.

Sorry about the 0 i thought the single quote was supposed to be a zero lol. also yeah probably best to just not use keybinds on android because you dont need them

I'm working on fixes for these things but it's taking more time since the last version of the game engine I used to make this is very old now, so lots of things broke in the update. It shouldn't take too long, but will take more time than one might think.

Update is out. Please tell me what you think when you have the time. Thank you again for pointing these out. :)

As a fellow frog game maker, I approve ;D

Cute game, although they do sound frog like, i do find the sound grating on some notes.

It is hard to get frogs to sound nice when their ribbits are stretched out. I used audio of a real frog to make all the notes. There might be some other audio things I can fix to make it sound nicer, but I don't know if I will go back to this project or not. We'll see.

This instrument is great

Ha ha. Thank you. 🐸🎵

your welcome

THIS IS AMAZING!! What a cute instrument! I saw your doom cover and I hope that this gets more traction to where there are more covers out there!! All of it is great! The noises, interactivity, and art all fit the bill of being such a nice project! Thank you for sharing :DDD

(1 edit)

Ha ha! I'm glad you enjoyed both the video and the game... instrument?... It would likely be nicer if I knew anything about pianos, though. I think I did my best to tune the frogs.

It is still made very well!! I would be more than happy to try and answer any piano related questions you may have. I have actually played it on and off for about 8 years! It is truly an adorable game!

Instrument? Creation :D

In that case, what do you think of the choice of "keys?"

Do you have discord? It may be best to explain over there :D
