Frogun is a traversal game where you use a frog-shaped gun to interact with the world and navigate the levels. You play Renata, who comes from a family of explorers, archaeologists and inventors but finds herself alone in the jungle. It's a classic platform game but with a modern twist of the frog-shaped grappling hook (who is also your best friend).

NotesAccessibility Notes

You can't customize the control mapping, but can swap the jump and shoot buttons. You can't view the controls in-game, although the in-game tutorials you find in the early levels do tell you the controls for each action.

You can make the game a little easier with the Autoaim mode that has four settings: Always Autoaim, Autoaim when holding the Aim button, Autoaim when not pressing the aim button, never Autoaim.

You can make looking around easier by the Snap to settings that has four settings: No snapping, Snapping camera, Snapping character shooting, or Snapping both.

You can also hide the level timer if seeing it tick down makes you anxious.

ReadingReading

We've documented 4 accessibility features for Reading in Frogun which deal with how much reading or listening comprehension is required, how well the game provides visual and audible access to the text and whether subtitles and captions are a good fit for purpose.

Reading Level

How much reading is required to play the game's main path or story and how complex the language is. The presence of voiced characters doesn't reduce this requirement, as it's recorded as a separate datapoint.

Simple Minimal Reading: Minimal reading is required. The quantity and complexity of reading are at a level that a primary/elementary student (9-year-old) could understand.

Subtitles

Large Clear Subtitles: Subtitles are large, clear and of good contrast. They are at least 1/20 (46 pixels on 1080 screen) the height of a landscape screen and at least 1/40 height on portrait screens, or can be adjusted to be. We base this on the full line-height, including the space above and below the letters. Considered separately from the general text of the game, the subtitles are large, clear and of good contrast.

All Speech Subtitled (Or No Speech In Game): All spoken content has subtitles, or there is no speech in the game. This means there is no requirement to hear spoken dialogue or narrative to play the game.

Captions

Speaker Indicator: Textual captions indicate who is speaking (or there is only ever one person speaking). This can also be indicated visually in the game with character icons or placing text in speech bubbles next to the person speaking.
