    Frogun is a game that does plenty of things well. The soundtrack and art direction do convey an older game. Not sure if it's similar specifically to N64 games, since they seem to have a lower polygon count, but the feeling is there. The issues really start almost halfway into the game, where it wants you to do precision platforming with controls that aren't really made to be precise. There are some things that help a bit, like the ability to shoot twice while airborne, but it doesn't help a…

    The hookshot mechanic just doesn't work well with this camera and controls. It's fine in earlier levels where you can stop and aim carefully, but later on you need to chain multiple shots over bottomless pits and it's a complete crapshoot whether it works or not. The game has multiple levels of elevation, but you can't aim up or down, you can only shoot straight in front of you, and the camera is zoomed out and almost isometric (though you can rotate it freely), so it's just very hard to aim…

    The last half of the game trades fun for difficulty and the game is too finicky and incompetent to handle such a drastic difficult spike. The bosses, camera and controls overall suck. The game is fun though and I adore the graphical style, music and vibe of the game but I found myself frustrated more often than I'd have liked.

    Frogun is an interesting platformer that allows you to use a grappling hook shaped like a frog. With this in mind, I was expecting some unique gameplay elements that utilized this feature very well, and while there were a few. I had some issues with the gameplay that almost made the game rather tedious to play. That’s not to say that I didn’t hate the game but there are some issues with its core gameplay.

    Frogun is a game clearly inspired by the original Crash Bandicoot series, offering gameplay that focuses on either slow, methodical collectible gathering or fast-paced time trials. The protagonist, Renata, moves relatively slowly and has limited actions—she can jump and use her gun to defeat enemies or as a hookshot to traverse walls and other objects. However, the gun's performance is inconsistent. Vertically, the crosshair might indicate a target, but the hookshot fails if Renata is too high.…

    The game looks great and is very appealing for someone who has a strong connection to PS1/N64-era 3D platformers, but I don’t think it’s particularly fun. I played up to about halfway through and then dropped it; the main reason was the lack of polish in the controls. If Frogun’s mechanic for grabbing onto the spot it hits had worked perfectly, I think I would have enjoyed this game.

    The game starts out initially quite good admittedly, but I feel like the quality dips by a large margin. As other reviews have said - the game's limitations become very visible late-on in the game. I love the art style, and the characters are fun and varied but the gameplay lets itself down after a few hours in my opinion.

    there are some elements i like about this game, but overall its muddled by the fact that the central mechanic the game is based around and named after, the frogun, is clunky at best and straight up doesn't work at worst the game awkwardly starts asking you to chain multiple aerial shots above pits one after another about halfway through, which is fine in concept but depth perception for this is poor, the reticle is not a good indicator of if you should shoot now or not and it can feel like it…

    Not a terrible game, but just not good enough for me to want to stick with it. I think my biggest problem is the difficulty. If you don't try to do the optional level objectives the game is trivial. But the optional objectives aren't particularly fun. Speedrunning, for example, should be fun but it ultimately just feels like a rushed normal playthrough because the movement options aren't interesting enough to give you fun ways to speed up your time. Collecting all of the coins is even…

    The first half of the game is enjoyable. But later levels have some platforming that isn't really supported by the game's control. I'd say that the auto aim causes a lot of issues too. There are instances where you can see a platform beneath you but jumping onto it will cause you to die. I'm sure that this is an oversight but it feels weird when the game even has a speedrun mode, but shortcuts will kill you. It's not a terrible game, but I just wouldn't recommend it with the amount of other…

    Will just second everyone else talking about the platforming. The game demands far too much precision but doesn't have the controls or camera for it. THe checkpoint system sucks, you should respawn near where you died or fell instead of needing to repeat massive sections of level that, again, the game isn't really designed well enough to pull off with the platforming. There's too many collectibles as well. 8 or 10 goals per level? It's super tedious and repeating the same frustrating stages…

    As much as I'd love to recommend this and enjoy the game, I'm just getting frustrated with the controls. The main grapple mechanic is simply inconsistent and as you progress more and more into the game and the difficulty increases I find myself finding the game more and more of a chore to play as a result of these inconsistencies. Mix these inconsistencies with some of the later levels design choices/mechanics such as invisible blocks that only appear when you get near and the chaining…

    Frogun is a bit of a mix between Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and Crash Bandicoot. The gameplay is surprisingly simple. You have a single jump, you can aim the titular frogun and shoot the frogun to either grapple towards a wall/big enemy or pull something smaller towards you to later throw. Yet despite how simple the gameplay is, the level design is the highlight. With it's multilayered design you play it both as a fairly chill collectathon but also as a very "breakable" and very…
