Frog Bath is an action capture-the-flag platformer with an emphasis on fun and flexible froggy movement. Players take control of cute, silly frogs inside of a kingdom obsessed with bathing. In this kingdom, it is every young frog’s dream to have a chance to bathe their Frog King, to the point where it has become a competition.
The main goal of the game is to retrieve a bath item in the level and bring it back to the Frog King using a variety of abilities. The most significant subset of these mechanics is related to movement, where players can use a charged jump for higher hops, a timing-based “Perfect Frog Hop” to reach higher speeds, or their tongue-shot to stick to walls and fly around the level.
Players can also use their tongue to stun other frogs, and even though they lose the ability to tongue-shot when they have the bath item, they can spit it out at the Frog King to score a point or spit it at other players to stun them. The Frog King also moves around the level, hopping between different courtyards over time. If a player spends too much time near the Frog King, he will get angry and shoot his own tongue at them.
All of these mechanics come together to create a game that new players can enjoy, thanks to the easy-to-grasp goal and movement, while also providing the depth necessary for more competitive and advanced players to spend time mastering. On top of supporting local split-screen, the game also offers online networked play to allow people to play together over long distances. Frog Bath’s audience spans from young children who love the silly theme to teenagers and young adults who want a fun game to play with their friends.
