Amaazingg artwork. Absolutely LOVE the SNES-style graphics.

Re: Frogatto
Graphics aside (which are great of course) the polish of the game, story and dialogue (so far what I've seen of it) are excellent. Good job on this.

Re: Frogatto
Absolutely, this game is superb. I just finished(regretfully) playing through it. The best part was how well thought-out the difficulty aspect was throughout the entirety of the game. I tend to just give up and never play a game again when I can't beat something on the 20th try. Frogatto presented unique challenges in quite a few places, but they were always intriguing and seemingly-achievable enough for me to stay with it for as long as needed to move on.zeid wrote:Graphics aside (which are great of course) the polish of the game, story and dialogue (so far what I've seen of it) are excellent.
