| 2.5.0 - Custom art for your custom levels | 2023-07-18 | It has been over 2 years since the Frog Hop level editor was released, and we have been polishing it steadily over time. Today, we have another fairly major feature, and I think it's enough to justify version 2.5.0! This update brings custom art as a feature to the level editor. Fans will be able to get more creative with the aesthetic of their levels, as you can now create your own backgrounds and tilesets. To import a tileset with custom graphics, first move the image into your level folder. Then navigate to "File -> New -> New Tileset..." Select "Based on Tileset Image" and browse out to the image. Save the tileset underneath your level fo |

We hope you have been enjoying Frog Hop on-the-go with the Nintendo Switch, or maybe you have shared the love of Frog Hop with one of your console gamer friends. ːJumpyCuteː It has been great seeing a new wave of players enjoying the game, but we haven't forgotten our PC fans!

Improvements to buttons and switches in custom levels so they can be stretched and rotated. Improved some button prompts when using a DualShock 4 controller. EDIT: 2.4.5 has been released which fixes an issue that caused a crash on first boot. |
| 2.4.3 - More bug fixes? Yes | 2022-09-29 | Just a small update this time, but 2.4.3 fixes some longstanding bugs and some new ones discovered through custom levels. Here are some of the changes you can expect: You can now ride Lilly pads up and down without falling off. Fixed an issue that could soft-lock the game when pausing on the same frame that you die. Fixed an issue where the first_map property in custom levels wasn't being processed correctly. Fixed minor display issues on the menu for Mac and Linux. Health display now properly limits to a maximum of 5 hearts without flickering as you pick up additional hearts/health containers. |
| 2.4.2 - More Custom Level Fixes | 2022-08-15 | We're keeping the ball rolling with some more fixes and tweaks in 2.4.2! Fixed a crash when collecting an extra life on the same frame as it spawns in custom levels. Fixed issue with trigger zones activating random target zones. Fixed boosters and checkpoints not fully despawning when min/max difficulty set. Fixed a bug where the player could take damage or die while moving through a door. Fixed moving spikes not dealing damage when they should. Fixed treadmills animating while game is paused. Improved push block physics so they can now be carried by mechanical blocks and platforms in custom levels. (A new property "ignore_mechanical_blocks" |
| 2.4.1 - Custom Level bug fixes | 2022-08-07 | The last update had some big changes, and with all major patches, some bugs inevitably cropped up. Fear not, though; they were dealt with in swift fashion! This update includes: Fixed game crashing when using a target zone on conveyers. Fixed clockwise red bird being invincible. Fixed Gophers spawning on difficulties they should not. Toggle switches and target zones will now activate mechanical blocks which point to them with the "switch" property. Objects attached to a "platform" will now be destroyed if the platform is also destroyed. Added trigger type "EnemiesDefeated" to trigger zone. If enabled, the zone will track all enemies inside of |
| Huge Level Editor Update - 2.4.0 | 2022-08-06 | Level Editor Highlights Frog Hop 2.4.0 is here, and with it comes some very significant updates for the Level Editor DLC! Within the editor itself, you can expect the following changes: Various objects can now be attached to moving platforms so they move along with them. Spike blocks and deflector blocks now have switch-activated versions. Red bird that rotates clockwise has been added. Fixed several enemies that did not spawn at the same position as they appeared in the editor. Toggle switches have been added which can be activated with the tongue attack and trigger other switches.

| 2.3.0 - Custom Level Bug Fixes & More | 2022-07-24 | Update 2.3.0 - Windows only A new update is out for Frog Hop, focusing mainly on some bug fixes regarding the custom level editor. At the moment, this update is only available on Windows - there are some additional issues and considerations with how custom levels work on MacOS and Linux. We would like to release a future patch to address these and bring all platforms up to the same version, but did not want to hold back the Windows update which is ready now, since that is what the majority of users are playing on. Bug Fixes Fixed an issue with backgrounds being offset incorrectly in official levels after loading a custom level. Fixed death tr |
| Mac and Linux Release | 2021-12-16 | Frog Hop is now available on Linux and MacOS! MacOS Both M1 and Intel CPUs are compatible on MacOS. The recommended MacOS version is 11 (Monterey) or above. The minimum version supported is 10.9, however, there are limitations which mean the Level Editor DLC functionality is not available on 10.9. Due to the difference in compatibility, there is a separate beta branch for MacOS 10 compatibility. If you are running OSX 10 and Frog Hop won't run, open the game properties from your library, navigate to the "Betas" tab, and enter the password "FrogHopOSX10" Linux The game's engine (GameMaker Studio 2) only officially supports Ubuntu 18.04 and 20. |

| Easy Mode, Charms Tweaked and More Achievements! Update 1.03 | 2017-09-08 | Hi everyone, I have now added an easy mode to the game, achievements can still be earned (excluding hardcore/normal difficulty ones). Plus you can now select the difficulty when you create a file. Also the CHARMS have been readjusted quite a bit, a lot of the adverse effects were way too harsh and would ruin the point of investing money to use the charm. So A LOT of them have been changed to simply be more fun to use and less frustrating. Try them all out! (There still are a few that have slightly negative effects to help keep it varied though.) Lastly a BUNCH of achievements have been added! Special thanks to “Rockdisciple” for playtesting! |

| Minor Compatibility Update | 2017-05-29 | Hey everyone, I did a minor patch that should fix some issues where the game would have a weird glitchy black screen on startup. So this will help a bit more with running on several other windows computers (for the most part). Shoutouts to MarioBataliJr for helping with testing! Also did a minor bug fix to the prologue as well. -Brandon |
