I like the graphics and the concept of this game! I included it in my video compilation series of Ludum Dare games, if you’d like to check them out :) https://youtu.be/jRtyhvCwxto

It took me a lot longer than it should of to realize the arrows were pointing to food, not things trying to kill me. That was on me haha. I liked it, the controls handle really well.

Fun little game! Wasn't sure what the switching food sources were doing or if I could actually lose or not, though...

Awesome job Rise and Shine! The controls are super smooth, and the food "radar" is really well implemented.

Good job! I enjoyed seeing all of the different frogs... audio could have made it even better though! :)

Nice, but I would much rather see an enemy than food to eat.

Great entry. I like the design of the different stage of evolution. Maybe adding some challenge by adding predators would have been great. Good game anyway good job

Loved how smooth the movement felt. The music, audio, animation and art created a really cool relaxing vibe and an overall pleasant game experience. I was especially impressed with the tadpole animations, like the movement of the legs as it was swimming. Also the ending at the end was really cute and made replays enjoyable. Great job! Thank you so much for making this!

The limited vision and the marquor system give a good feeling to the game, it work fine, but not really fun.
