I have a higher tolerance for games with jank and an appreciation for games that let you crack them wide open, and both those things describe this one. Sure, the controls could be smoother and the camera could be better and it's hard to tell where you are in relation to the thing you need to land on or tether to, but the gameplay at its core is solid and does incentivize creative problem solving. An oversight in the movement system allows you to scale almost any wall, so it's possible to beat some levels in half a minute. I enjoyed my time with it. Might even go back to 100% it.

This game was a rollercoaster, but not in a good way. Looks adorable, I know. I got captiavated by that too... but the controls and the level design are in a constant clash.

I was confused at first because I wasn't sure what the game was asking of me. Once I got used to the controllers and the antiquated system for aiming the frogun I started having fun... but the the difficulty goes berserk at the final levels and I found myself repeating the same sections dozens of times. It was frustrating.

I don't think Frogun is a bad game. Just the visual are enough to make it worthwhile, but I wish the developers would have compromised a little of the retro features to make it more... let's say "playable".
