- 2.5.4 - Steam Deck, custom sprites, and more - 10 September 2025
This patch includes a number of feature enhancements for custom levels. Additionally, Frog Hop is now Steam Deck verified! Here are some of the changes in 2.5.4.Yes, we skipped some version numbers. There were some test builds in between this release and the last release, but they had significant bugs which needed to be resolved before release.Custom LevelsMajor FeaturesVarious objects now support adding custom sprites! For objects that are animated or support more than one state, a sprite strip is included in the LevelEditor folder which you can use as a template.Enemy objects can now be designated as "spawners". Hook these up to switches and zones in order to spawn in enemies dynamically. (Supports both single-use and repeated spawning.)Trigger zones can now be activated by objects other than the player entering the zone. (I.E. Push blocks). This enhances the possibilities for automat…
- 2.5.0 - Custom art for your custom levels - 18 July 2023
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 folder as well. (You may use subfolders to organize assets as you choose, but it's easiest to do this before from the get-go.) Frog Hop also works with Image Layers now as well. These layers are best used for background/foreground images, as they allo…
- 2.4.7 - Minor localization and level editor updates - 1 July 2023
In case you missed it, Frog Hop launched on consoles back in February! 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! This patch is specifically for desktop operating systems - the only place where you can create and play your own Frog Hop levels. Changes included in this update: Fixed an issue preventing Tiled from launching through Steam when selecting "Launch Game Editor" on Windows. Custom levels can now display a custom title on the menu instead of using the world filename. See the "metadata.json" file in the included levels for an example. Arrow platforms now have a property to customize their speed in custom levels. Support for Tiled 1.10.1, which is no…
- 2.4.4 - Achievement fix and more - 20 December 2022
Just a small update today, but some notable fixes nonetheless: Fixed an issue which prevented the "Normal Cleared" achievement from triggering. ːJumpyAGHː Fixed an issue where switches could sometimes be triggered twice from a single tongue usage. 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 - 29 September 2022
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 - 15 August 2022
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" added to use old behavior. This is useful if you have a push block that activates a button, then mechanical blocks cover it up.)
- 2.4.1 - Custom Level bug fixes - 7 August 2022
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 it on map start. Once all those enemies have been defeated, the zone will activate its target.
- Huge Level Editor Update - 2.4.0 - 6 August 2022
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. Major Feature for Level Creators That's not all that is included with this update, though... There is a one new feature which is a total game changer for making dynamic levels. Introducing trigger zones and target zones! Trigger zones can be activated either by the player walking into them or from a toggle s…
- 2.3.0 - Custom Level Bug Fixes & More - 24 July 2022
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 triggering "game over" and restarting level one life too soon in some circumstances. Fixed "game over" not always resetting gems correctly. † Fixed issue with tongue simultaneously hitting on Sling Node and some other nodes locking the player. † This…
- Mac and Linux Release - 16 December 2021
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 20.04. As such, Frog Hop only officially supports Ubuntu as well. That said, it should generally work on most Linux distributions, but may require additional steps and workarounds. Level Editor The Level Editor DLC is supported on MacOS and Linux, exce…

- Level Editor Release! - Frog Hop 2.0 - 4 year anniversary! - 23 February 2021
Level Editor Release It's hard to believe it's been 4 years since Frog Hop released on Steam! Today we have a huge update for Frog Hop that introduces a custom level editor! The Level Editor tools allow you to create your own levels and play levels created by other players. All you have to do is install the (free) Level Editor DLC to get started. Follow this link to view the full tutorial playlist, which will walk you through how to use the Tiled map editor to make your own levels. Level Editor Q&A Q: What is Tiled? Why does this require a third-party tool? A: Tiled is an open source map editing tool. It is intended for designing levels for 2D games in a generic fashion. Developing a custom level editor in a game engine is no small task. It would take months if not years of effort to achieve something satisfactory, and even then there are better tools on PC for the task. While the exper…
