The Explorer's Update is here!The island got a lot bigger. There are new places to find, a map that fills in as you go, special treats that power up your frogs, six new pets, and a proper pause menu with graphics and controller settings. Here is what's new. 🌊 The Lily LakeA huge new lake on the east shore, twice the size of the first one and twice as deep. Its giant lily pads are bouncy: jump from one and you fly far higher than a normal jump, so you can hop across the whole lake without getting your feet wet. The biggest pads hide loot — eggs, barrels full of furniture and the new frog buffs — and an old giant tree stands right at the water's edge. 🍄 Two new townsMushroom Town — a village of red-capped mushroom houses inside a wobbly wooden fence, with sandy paths winding between the cottages. Caps are bouncy, too. Oasis City — a hill town of sand-coloured towers, domes and walls out in the desert, which is now full of rocks, dunes, dry grass and cacti. Both towns have eggs, pet food and loot barrels to find. 🗺️ A map that fills in as you exploreGet the map and press M to open it. The island starts covered in clouds and clears wherever you have been, revealing the places you've found: towns, lakes, the landfill, the reeds and more. How much of it can you uncover? 🍎 Frog buffsSeven new treats and potions to give your frogs. Pick one in your hotbar, walk up to a frog and give it. Each buff lasts 10 minutes (giving the same one again adds 10 more), a frog can have several at once, and every active buff shows as an icon above its head.

The Collector's Update is here!Every frog in the pond is now a distinct thing worth collecting - it has a real breed name, a grade, and a page in a book you fill in as you play. Here is everything that changed. 🐸 Frogs & eggsThe frog roster grew to 41 frogs — new robots, jungle dwellers, spotted, origami, black and huge variants. 41 real breed names replace the old placeholders. There are proper frog riffs in there: Bullfrog for the spotted family, Dart Frog for the jungle, Horned Frog for the spiked, Tomato Frog, and a stone one simply called Grump. Colours mark the variants — Blue Bullfrog, Golden Dart Frog — and sizes take Little, Giant or Grand. The hatch reveal card. Cracking an egg is an event now. The moment it opens you get the frog's portrait, its name, its grade written as a word in the grade's own colour — grey, blue, purple, gold — and exactly what it will earn you per minute. Rarity follows the odds. Every frog's grade is set by how hard it is to hatch, with a promise attached to each egg: Frost and Robotic never give below Epic, Lava and Origami never below Rare. Where a frog came from matters. An Epic hatched from a Frost Egg earns more than an Epic from a Common Egg — the expensive egg's bonus is baked in when it hatches, and the frog keeps that rate for good. Blessed eggs. With a sheep in the pond, an egg in the incubator can be blessed while it hatches, and a blessed egg has ten times the chance of a Legendary. Frogs sell for what they are worth. A frog's price comes from its grade now, so a Legendary no longer sells for the price of a Common. You are asked before you sell one, and the earnings figure on the terminal is finally the real one. Selling a frog no longer eats its hat. It comes off first and goes to your inventory, or drops beside you — either way you can wear it again. 📖 Frog EncyclopediaA species grid, opened from the frog terminal. One row per egg, showing every frog that egg can hatch — so you can see what you are gambling on before ...
The next demo update is on its way!It has been a busy few weeks at the pond. The demo is about to get a bigger roster, a wiki of its own, new quests and a much tidier backpack. Here is what is coming. 🐸 Frogs & EggsThe frog roster grew to 41 frogs — new robots, jungle dwellers, spotted, origami, black and huge variants. Every one of them now has a real breed name instead of a placeholder. There are proper frog riffs in there: Bullfrog for the spotted family, Dart Frog for the jungle, Horned Frog for the spiked, Tomato Frog, and a stone one simply called Grump. Colours mark the variants — Blue Bullfrog, Golden Dart Frog — and sizes take Little, Giant or Grand, so one breed always stays one breed. The hatch reveal card. Cracking an egg is an event now. The moment it opens you get a card with the frog's portrait, its name, its grade written as a word in the grade's own colour — grey, blue, purple, gold — and exactly what it will earn you per minute. No more squinting at the terminal to find out what you got. 📖 Frog EncyclopediaA whole new window, opened from the frog terminal: a species grid with one row per egg, showing every frog that egg can hatch. Now you can see what you are gambling on before you buy. There is a final row for the frogs no egg gives you at all — the ones you have to find another way. Frogs you have not met yet appear as silhouettes marked "???", and every discovery is saved, so the book fills in as you play. Completing it is its own goal.📜 QuestsTwo new quests have been added to the demo, and an old one that asked for more frogs than your pond could hold has been put right. 🎒 Four Bags, Four CountersThe waste bag used to swallow every loose object in the world, which made it useless for anything specific. Now there are four bags, and each one takes only its own category: Waste Bag — trash and toxic waste Plants Bag — lilies and sea wheat Crop Bag — wheat and sunflowers Bug Bag — bugsEach bag keeps its own count, and the HUD counter swaps its icon ...
