Frogue

An infinite hopping prototype

Made this mid-2014 but gave up on it as I was unsure of its viability as a fun game. There should be some scrolling backgrounds that change as you go to different tilesets but I never quite got it working.

Controls:

• Left click and drag to hop
• Right click to flick out your tongue/spit
• Left click again to activate any special abilities

How To Play:

• Get as far as you can without falling down or running out of food
• Collide with or pickup up flies with your tongue to refill your food bar
• Can also use the tongue to pull yourself to objects and platforms

Frogue is simple little infinite-runner, or rather infinite-hopper (HAHAHA). Although as most infinite-runners force the players forward with constant momentum Frogue has a depleting food bar. The game ends if you run out of food which can only be replenished by collecting flies. The flies are limited so you have to keep moving forward to find more. The aim is just to see how far you can get without falling off or running out of food.

In the prototype you can hop along through seven different areas with a bunch of different obstacles. There's also five different playable frogs with different advantages and disadvantages.

Really I think that it being about a frog strongly motivated me to keep making the game. I just really like frogs.
