Many thanks for this here is my tribute to the brilliant work you have done. The frog game was so hard for me, but loved the nods, the city and so much more - especially a certain mini game that was there. Hope you enjoy the video !
Every video you make gets better and better with the many, many interesting additions you find. I hope I can upload the animGIF about Frog here. :)
Way too confusing as to what to do in the majority of things. I could list so many.
Cleared items should disappear or change visuals.
Not sure how much of this is part of the original or not.
