Frogmonster

Music Update!

In honor of Frogmonster being out for 1 year Frogmonster has a new soundtrack!

Featuring over 50 tracks including a theme for every boss in the game!
It was a lot of fun contracting a community member to produce all of this music and bringing some more life to the game. Viho! did a great job.

Take a look at the trailer below and take a listen!



The old one is still available just check classic soundtrack in settings

Other changes / fixes

  • General Audio balancing
  • Some spelling and text fixes
  • Setting for disabling BOW Fov zoom
  • Bug fix with Runi crashing in Boss soup if you got close to him
  • Fixed some arena soft locks with Djumbo and Xoto


Thanks for 1 year of Frogmonster! This game has been so much fun to make and I'm grateful for the support.
The game will be on it's biggest sale yet for a week to celebrate starting in 2 hours!
Tell a friend!

Thanks

Frogmonster Item Randomizer!

You can now play the game with items randomized!

What does this mean?
Weapons, spells, bugs, and most items you collect in the game have their sources swapped. So a catching a fly at the beginning of the game could give you the wooden cannon or any other item!

You can even play with friends! With multiword support you can have your item pools randomized together so one player can unlock items for another's! Even between different games entirely.

Additional features
-Multiword
-Randomized bug on eat effects
-Difficulty settings
-Alternative goals
-Start with portals open

How do I play?
There are two steps to get it working!

1) if you are hosting you are going to need to download the archipelago client and go through some steps to host a world either locally or on their website. There are great instructions for this from a community member who has helped me with the archipelago side of things

Better instructions found here!
https://github.com/Rooby-Roo/FrogmonsterAPWorld/tree/main

2) The next step is to right click on Frogmonster in your steam library and click Properties->Betas and select the rando_0.1.0 branch! Once it's downloaded you can launch the game and pick a new save file. After clicking play open the console and type in your archipelago connect command and name and you are all set!

Quick note
SAVE FILES ARE DIFFERENT FOR RANDO SO DON'T WORRY IF YOUR PREVIOUS SAVES DON'T SHOW UP

I've been having a blast playing this with some friends and hope you do too!
Frogmonster is on sale until the end of spring sale so if you got some friends you want to rando with it's a great time to pick the game up!

If you have any issues or questions feel free to join the discord or post on the steam forums

Thanks everybody hope you enjoy

Boss Rush Soup - All Challenges now OUT!

The final challenge in Trenches Boss Rush Soup is OUT NOW!
(I wonder who the boss could be ???)

After finishing the base game head to the Under City to go and visit Trench and see what he has cooking!

Each challenge has it's own surprise new boss at the end of it bringing the total number of bosses in Frogmonster to 32! It's been a blast creating all of these and I am proud of every one of them. Which one's have been your favorite?

Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think of the final soup!

Also Bugfixes!
- Weapon wheel now no longer moves camera when using
- Small performance improvements


Just want to take a moment to thank everyone who has played / shared my game. Being an indie dev is tough and spreading the word is the best way to help me out!

So just wanna say thanks!
