muy bueno el jueguito. aunque sea muy cuco y bonito. no te dejes engañar. pues la dificultad bien medida te mantendrá viciado.
I freaking adore this game. I love the PS 1/ N64 graphics. It's bright. Colorful and controls like a dream. Highly, highly recommend!
It is incredibly frustrating due to the camera and some design choices, but it is an overall well made game.
Awesome.
Frogun, created by Molegato and published by Top Hat Studios, Inc., is a platformer that fully embraces the spirit of the late 1990s without trying to smooth out all of the quirks that defined that era. It places you in the role of Renata, a young adventurer navigating a series of ruins and dangerous environments in search of her missing parents, but the story itself is more of a framework than the main attraction. What truly drives the experience is its commitment to recreating the feel of early 3D platformers, from its visual style to its movement mechanics, capturing both the charm and the occasional awkwardness that longtime fans of the genre will immediately recognize. The defining feature of Frogun is its central mechanic, a frog-shaped grappling device that functions as your primary tool for traversal, combat, and interaction. This single piece of equipment gives the game its identity, allowing players to latch onto distant objects, pull themselves across gaps, grab collectibles, and deal with enemies in creative ways. The simplicity of having one core mechanic works in the game’s favor, as it encourages players to master its nuances rather than juggle a wide range of abilities. Over time, using the frogun becomes more fluid and expressive, especially as players learn how to chain movements and maintain momentum through more complex sections. Level design reinforces this focus by offering compact but layered stages filled with secrets, collectibles, and optional challenges. Rather than sprawling environments, each level feels tightly constructed, encouraging careful exploration and repeated attempts to uncover everything it has to offer. Completionists will find plenty of incentive to revisit stages, as collecting all items and meeting specific conditions adds an extra layer of challenge. This structure gives the game a satisfying loop, where progress is measured not just by reaching the end of a level but by how thoroughly it has been explored. Visually, Frogun leans heavily into a retro-inspired aesthetic, using low-polygon models and bright, saturated colors to evoke the look of early 3D console games. However, it does not feel like a simple imitation. The presentation is polished in its own way, with a clear artistic direction that makes environments distinct and characters expressive. From jungle ruins to icy landscapes and volcanic zones, the variety of settings helps maintain a sense of progression, even if some themes repeat more than others. The overall style strikes a balance between nostalgia and readability, ensuring that gameplay remains clear despite the intentionally dated visual approach. That commitment to retro design, however, also brings with it some of the limitations associated with it. Movement can feel stiff at times, particularly during sections that require precise jumps or quick adjustments in mid-air. The frogun mechanic, while versatile, does not always respond as smoothly as players might expect, leading to occasional frustration when timing is critical. Camera behavior can also be inconsistent, sometimes making it harder to judge distances or align actions correctly. These issues do not define the experience, but they become more noticeable in later stages where the difficulty increases. The pacing of Frogun reflects its design philosophy, favoring a steady and methodical approach over constant action. Players are encouraged to take their time, observe their surroundings, and approach challenges carefully. This can be rewarding for those who enjoy a more deliberate style of play, but it may feel slower than expected for players accustomed to modern platformers that emphasize speed and fluidity. Difficulty progression is not always perfectly balanced, with certain segments introducing sharper challenges that can disrupt the otherwise relaxed rhythm. Ultimately, Frogun succeeds because it remains consistent in what it sets out to do. It does not try to modernize every aspect of its design, instead choosing to preserve the feel of its inspirations while adding its own unique twist through the frogun mechanic. This makes it a very specific kind of experience, one that will resonate strongly with players who appreciate retro platformers and are willing to accept their quirks. In the end, Frogun is a charming and thoughtfully designed homage that captures the essence of classic 3D platforming while offering enough originality to stand on its own. It may not appeal to everyone, particularly those looking for modern refinement, but for the right audience, it provides a satisfying and memorable adventure. Rating: 7/10
entretenido, divertido sin mecánicas complicadas un plataformero simple para pasar el rato
Consigue un lindo homenaje a los juegos viejos de plataformas sin perder el estilo propio. Los escenarios, los personajes, la música, todo es muy carismático, y, pese a algunos detalles donde se nota el limite de calidad a la que puede aspirar un juego hecho por tan pocas personas, gráficamente está muy bien y los niveles son bastante disfrutables. mas cuando iba avanzando y lograba la dificultad justa para mantenerme concentrado sin perder la simpleza del gameplay, Lindo juego.
TL;DR: Fun, retro inspired platformer. Could use a better sense of momentum and pacing, as well as gun aiming. Controls are a bit archaic with move fluidity.
boa noite minhas delicias. ..💚💚 frogun é um ótimo joguinho de plataforma que consegue ser tanto abençoado por DEUS e amaldiçoado pelo DEMONIO ao mesmo tempo, e digo isso porque o tanto que eu me estressei com uns MOSQUITO DE CAPACETE nessa BOSTA nao vai caber aqui neste texto....................... mas ao mesmo tempo, eu não conseguia parar de jogar! 😍👏👏🐫😍 é um joguinho muito bom pra quem quer um desafio, porque pra completar tudo desse jogo tem que ter uma mente de aço mesmo.. bjo 💋
A proposta do jogo é muito boa, mas os controles são bem bugadinhos e a física também. Simplesmente você tenta usar a Frogun em alguns locais e não funciona. Isso frusta demais. Peguem em promoção caso queiram jogar
