Roberto is a little frog that's learning to use magic!

Eat critters to absorb their magic power. But be careful, Roberto cannot yet handle high magic levels, if you eat too much your magic will become unstable.

Digest the critters to restore health or throw them at your enemies for a powerful hit! This will consume their magical power and make your magic stable again. But perhaps there are some benefits to the instability...?

This game was made in 10 days for the Bullet Hell JAM 6.

Listen to the OST here! 


NOTE: If you experience frequent lagspikes, frame drops, or stuck keys, please download the Windows or Mac version.


Detailed mechanics
  • Eat critters to increase your magic level. The higher the magic level, the more powerful the shot, however it becomes gradually more unstable.
  • Digesting recovers health and empties your stomach. Digest with a full stomach to gain extra health.
  • Spitting throws all the critters in your stomach towards your enemies. The more critters your spit, the more damage you will deal.
  • If you eat too much while your stomach is full, Roberto won't be able to handle it and he'll spit everything.

Aaaah, I really love the gentle and soothing atmosphere of this art! The world feels filled with a beautiful mood!

The shooting part gets pretty tough! Even when I directly link my professional nyan-nyan dodging skills to the frog wizard's brain, it still feels quite difficult!

But the mechanic of filling up the stomach is super interesting, meow~! 🐱

Thanks a lot for playing and for your kind words! ^^

I LOVE IT. IT'S SO CARISMATIC AND UNIQUE. THE ARTSTYLE IS BEAUTIFUL, THE ENEMIES ARE VERY ORIGINAL. THE CONCEPT IS SO COOL.

IT MUST'VE BEEN HARD TO CODE THOUGH. I SEE SOME REALLY NICE LOOKING PATTERNS RIGHT THERE.

YOU EVEN MADE A TOUHOU REFERENCE. THE FIRST PART OF THE THEME REMINDS ME OF U.N. OWEN WAS HER. I REALLY LIKE IT THOUGH.

YOU GUYS DID A SPLENDID JOB WITH THIS GAME! CONGRATULATIONS! I LOVED EVERY SINGLE PART OF IT!
