    Every game we've put out has gotten numerous updates (except Omium).

    I'm curious to find out whether there will be tadpoles which I hope there will be and whether or not there will be female and male frogs

    This is so awesome and cute. Im already in love with the graphics.
    I am going to bombard you with questions now. Be prepared
    Is there are any pink looking frogs out there ? WHat about the patterns do they have hearts or stars on them ? Are they any accessories or play items as well? Will there be special themes and such for the holidays?

    Would you mind posting any screenshots on any of them?

    Sorry but Im so excited :p

    maybe in a future update you guys could make tadpoles? Since people seem to like them so much. I can think of a perfect way to ingptegrate these into the game.

    you could have another habitat, the "Tadpole pond" where when a frog lays an egg(?) it goes there. the egg grows and hatches into a tadpole wpthat swims around in the pond, getting bigger and growing legs. it would take just as long for a normal tadpole to grow up as a bubble-frog does now, and gritpwth potion works too. no happiness for the tadpoles, they're there for looks. eventually the tadpole gets 4 legs, push notification(?), and it is put into a habitat of your choice.

    I think the tadpoles in Pollywog are super cute. Why not make them look kinda like that?

    Guys, if tadpoles were added, Dave would have to make graphics for all the tadpole breeds. Believe me, the game is perfectly fine without tadpoles, I would know. ;)

    Maybe in a very distant update though . . .

    Nah, a simple cute tadpole sprite would do it. Tadpoles almost never look like the frogs they grow up into. They usually just look like. well. Tadpoles.

    An example:

    [​IMG]
    A tadpole for a toad.

    [​IMG]

    An actual adult toad.


    I still think the game is absolutely amazing and just as fun with or without tadpoles, but it would be a cute addition in an update.

    Yea the game will be fine without tadpoles, but even so realistically the majority of tadpoles for actual frogs are black, they don't receive color until they mature into a froglet, would be cool to see but isn't needed. Especially since I actually want to play this game relatively soon

    No! You will have to breed them, too :p

    Can't wait for the release! Another no-hectic game for the quite time in the mornings/evenings or on the toilet ;)

    Another -1 for tadpoles, baby frogs are far more cute and colourful. Plus I know it's childish but the last thing we want is everyone shouting "sperm!" at their iPhones.
