  I had accidentally stumbled onto this game while looking for another project that seems to no longer be around and purchased Frog Ball out of both sheer curiosity and because it was on sale for 75% off, that being said it is far from worth the dollar and seventy five cents I spent on it to the point that I have requested a refund. The physics aren't fun to play with and the game itself lacks allot of basic QOL features like being able to leave a level when you realize it isn't enjoyable (the stages seem to encourage you taking a slow approach and I found myself being thrown off courses from hitting what I assume was a bump on the map or something no matter what speed I was going at). Outside of the main menu there is no music and all the UI seems to be the default unity UI buttons. On some stages you can actually just start rolling before you're even given control and that throws you past collectables that I don't believe do anything for you. While looking back on this page I noticed something odd from a reviewer by the user name J.A.Y: "Love Dallen's games! This is another classic. Especially when you take into account the fact that this game was only made in a week! AWESOME!" I could not for the life of me find any dev interviews or anything on the creation of this game and going off J.A.Y's steam profile they and the dev are friends. It's absolutely fine to support your friends' creative endeavors but that just leaves me with the question of why was the game made in a week and then charged 6.99 for (when not on sale). While I do think the physics could have used allot more tweaking as you seem to be able to completely stop by not pressing anything even while on slopes this game clearly needed more time to be something enjoyable rather than what it currently is. If it was just an experiment why pay the money to set up a steam store page and charge for it when you could have put it on itch.io for free and received feedback from there? I was really interested in allot of the dev's other work like Othello but given that they seem to slap out games and have people close to them leave positive reviews to inflate the user score I feel just kinda let down.
