- Welcome, thank you, & some news! - 28 May 2026
Wow!Frog Up! has officially released here on Steam and we couldn't be prouder. Thank you to everyone who has, and continues to, support this passion project as it grows -- you're the best! Now, I'd like to tell you a little bit about how this game was developed, who we are, and where we're going in terms of updates to the game, and I hope you'll appreciate why I am so proud of what we've done, and what we're going to do.First off, I'm Kraken! I'm the sole designer & developer of Frog Up!, which I intended to be the first "official" game release for my small but formidable DG_DEV team.
