Croak
Croak is a fast-paced 2D platformer with bouncy gameplay and cheeky tongue mechanics that let you grapple, dash, and pinball through bite-sized levels. The game is fully hand-drawn using traditional frame-by-frame animations, featuring visuals from artists who previously worked on Cuphead and Rick & Morty! Hop on a journey as the Frog Prince to save your kingdom from a curse, with nothing but royal resolve! (and your handy-dandy tongue) Discover hidden secrets, solve dynamic puzzles, conquer epic bosses, and unlock achievements as you delight in a breathtaking environment.
Use the prince's tongue to dash and bounce around through hundreds of hand-crafted rooms. Manipulate the environment as you traverse distinct biomes, each with their own unique gameplay mechanics and bosses. Set in the sprawling swamps, visit the twisted carnival orchestrated by the Witch at the playful Feast Fair. Through offbeat mini-games, skill-testing challenges, and clashes with grand, eccentric bosses, only the persistent can earn a coveted seat at the ultimate Royal Banquet! A simple two-action mechanic — Easy to learn, but takes great skill to master:
- Short tap to grapple and climb
- Long press to launch yourself off a platform
- Hold for infinite pinball-bouncing!
