About the Game

GET READY TO 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. 

FROG ----> TONGUE-GRAPPLE ----> BOUNCE

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! 

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!

"It's a small hop for a frog, but a giant leap towards the feast!" - the prince, probably

Oh, and there's Bossfights too!

Boop, dodge, and defeat those goofy-looking, over-the-top bosses that stand in your way!
