With a sequel, I know going in that I'm looking to be surprised, which makes it inherently less surprising. Is this game still worth it at that point?
HAHAHAHAHAHA
The stream just unlocked a combination of a clicker and flappy bird with a flying toaster.
I just spent half an hour trying to wrap my head around the farie mechanics in order to unlock FF2 and just hitting my head over and over again. The game is AWFUL.
Is there an easy way to do this or do I just have to steam refund this game and watch a FF2 playthru on youtube?

lmao,.the entirety of Dante's Inferno is in it
Oh god you missed some true fuckery
That shit goes off the goddamn rails the second you go down

?I hope you mean the mediocre EA god of war knock off and not The Inferno.
Reminds me of the reason I bought Pony Island.So, what are people's impressions? Is this worth 20 dollars?
?
Of course I mean the entire text of Dante's Inferno. He's also travelling between the various circles of Hell.
So listening to the GB podcastapparently all those soapstone messages are from a server, so I assume you get a way to write them dark souls style at some point.
Yeah, the Twitch streamer did that earlier.
Cool. You guys are crazy just FYI.
Hi my first question is how dare you and my second is exactly how many drugs did you guys do to pull this off
Also I am totally not a drug cop
The Glittermitten Grove mechanics are basically a kids game, what are you not understanding about it?
You cut trees for wood, hang prisms to gain sparkles, dig with fireworks to get diamonds, fertilise plants to get fruit then you spend those resources building up a little town.
Dig down to get Frog Fractions 2.
That little dumb story about boxing could be seen as trying to recreate the magic that is ff1The first game was _awesome_ and I'm ready for the second. I hope it also provides deeper insight into the life and work of Andre Filipe Filipe.
Spoilers for joke I found a few minutes after unlocking the "real" game.
this was already worth the 20 bucks.Import Mass Effect 2 save and what it does had me in tears,
Just going to play the damn thing now but off to a good start.
It's actually no where near as funny as I thought, I saw a pallete change where there wasn't one. Eyes playing tricks on meI won't have time to play this but i want to know !
TheJonTerp said:I kinda just want this to be over.
Yeah, it seems like things are not shaping up too great with this Frog Fractions 2. It's too obtuse, too obscure, not quite funny enough, and maybe too much of a real game to hit the same notes that the original did. It also includes a bunch of, which doesn't really add to the appeal. The streamers already seem completely tired of it, and I have no desire to purchase it after watching for a while. I have a feeling that there is going to be a lot of backlash against this game by the people who backed it on Kickstarter. The first title was a laugh riot, not angame jam gamesOh well, you can't win em all I suppose. Pony Island continues to be the best Frog Fractions 2.ascii adventure puzzler with game jam mini games.
This seems a bit premature considering it's been out for what, hours, you haven't played it yourself, and you're spoiling the surprises by watching streams?
Not a reflection of quality. My hope is that for $20 the game is largely original content. Which it sounds like it is.What exactly is "game jam stuff" and how is that different than the original frog fractions? Does that just mean the content isn't good or what? FF1 is all 10-15 minute minigames too.
I mean, while that may be. The first game I watched someone play through in its entirety before I did myself and still found a ton of enjoyment there. This game seems to be a lot more...gamey, which the creator acknowledged as a potential downside in the podcast and is something that I am bringing up here as there's nothing presented so far that even passes for fun. Again, unless you like vague, difficult ascii adventure games. The entire reason I was watching the stream was to see if the game might be worth the $20 price tag versus the first game being a free webgame. At this point, I can't say that's the case.
This does seem like a pretty good streamer's game though. The obtuse puzzle solving lends itself well to puzzle solving and the usage of references as punchlines appeals to a certain crowd.
Hey, thanks for playing our ga-oh wait, you didn't. Well either way, I'll offer some thoughts on your critiques and hopefully give you some insight into why the game is the way it is.
Your contention that it's full of "game jam games" may be technically correct [the best sort of correct] in that a few of the minigame ideas started at game jams, but that doesn't mean that they're not fully developed - and they comprise a relatively small percentage even then. The two segments that began as Jam ideas actually have proven to be our most popular parts!
You expressed concern that this is a "vague, difficult ascii adventure game" - fair enough! I'd disagree, given that within a few hours of the first people to find it the entire game had been completed, but difficulty is a tricky beast, and we spent a lot of time tuning it to be challenging but certainly not impossible. The game was, for a long time, even more obscure and vaguer, but that was dissatisfying. The autocorrect boots used to not be doffable, for example! That said, this game is definitely not for everybody - and neither was Frog Fractions. The idea was that we wanted to make something that WASN'T a sequel to the original in the way that most people would conceive of such, and that was stated up-front in our Kickstarter pitch.
I'm sorry the game hasn't clicked with you. Luckily there are a lot of other games out there that I bet you'll enjoy. We knew going into this that we couldn't please everybody and we're still seeing a really positive response. If you really liked the original but haven't found this game to your liking, hopefully you'll like one of the things we make next
Hopefully this helps address some of the things in your post!
Play this. http://twinbeard.com/frog-fractions/
No questions. Play. You should be able to figure it out. If you need a hint:go down
The first one is free and amazing. Just play it and don't look up anything about it.
