Oh snap! The ToadQueen have ( somehow ) captured you and is now forcing you to endure sneaky platforming challenges in a colourfull world where layer-changing is taken to new depths! Will you come out on the other side of the FROGENA or are you doomed not to hop?

<3 Manual layer-changing gameplay!

<3 Crazy colourfull scenery with loads of toads!

<3 LOLtastic vehicles!

<3 A proper story with multiple endings!

Unique visuals. Unique gameplay. How can you go wrong?! Loved all the dialogue and the challenge it brought forth to make this a complete package. Great work!

If you like awesome platformers, artistic scenery, frogs, and a lol object (play level to see what I mean) then this level is a MUST play! Nice job Mnniska.

Soooo guys! I made this level under the last two weeks. It was absolutely crazy getting something finished in that short amount of time but I did succeed in the end. That being said I don't think it's anything I'd want to redo!
This will be my last level this summer because I have decided to take a break from LBP2 and interest myself in the other fine things life has to offer :B

I have published three levels in one month though, so I'm sure you'll be fine for now!

So! Please enjoy the level and let me know what you think! :star:

Glad to hear you guys enjoyed the level! If you happen to find any bugs, I'd be more then happy to get some detailed bug reports so that I can easily resolve the problems. It appears there's a problem with the ending failing miserably. However I'm unable to recreate the bug so if someone who had it let me know eactly what they did then that'd be great

Also, the level got community spotlighted! If I had published the level a few days earlier I would've participated in three spotlights straight! xD

Heyas Mnniska,

Just finished playing through this level and it was amazing.

You've got some real tough, enjoyable platforming wrapped up in a very well-realized design scheme. i'm a middling player at best, so i really had to work at some of the challenges, but they were all doable in the end, and success felt that much better for them being tough. Also, the manual layer change mechanic was inventive and well handled, really adding depth to the puzzles. The little details in the level, like the billboards, and the generally well handled humor all add up to an excellent job.

On the downside, though...just a few little things. Right at the beginning of the stage, i don't know exactly what i did...maybe i didn't trigger the controlinator or something, but somehow i got stuck on top of the "Meanwhile, in Frog-Japan" sign. i thought i might need to hop down, but that just dropped me to the nowhere at the bottom of the stage. Also, in the second section, after i managed to blow up the queen, everything went black, and then stayed that way (i was lucky to be wearing a costume with a glowing skin, or i wouldn't have made it to the scoreboard).

Ah! One thing i wanted to mention! i really liked the way you integrated the simple logic into the stage design (showing the dissolve blocks and switch triggers and the like). When it's done on purpose, as part of the theme, it can look really nice.

So...fun, interesting, funny, hard, and just a little buggy (you'd think a stage about frogs would be bug-free, no?). A stage everyone ought to give at least one go at.

Thank you so much for the feedback and bug report waffleking. I will be looking into the issues either this weekend or the upcoming week. I didn't really have time to bugtest it properly before publishing so I'm looking forward to finally fixing it up :B

Once again, thanks a bunch!

UPDATE.

Okay guys, I finally had a look into the messy logic at the end and (hopefully!) the darkness bug is gone now. I'm not done updating this just yet but I figured it was best to fix the main issues and publish rather then fixing everything in one update. Also, the floor is now fire-y for those of you who accidently drops off levels sometimes :B
