Your goal, I suppose, is to fling the eponymous, invincible amphibian as far as you can by any means possible. That means throwing him down a set of steps, firing him out of a cannon or propelling him into the side of a multi-storey car park to rack up ever higher scores.Unstable, glitchy physics help and hinder your efforts in equal measure, and enrich the slapstick. As well as stairs to tumble down and buildings to plummet from, there are explosives – kept in red barrels, naturally – to blast our hero into the air and bouncy castles to frolic upon. Your soundtrack is mostly the persistent slap of wet, webbed foot on concrete, though developer Fayju has dotted the occasional boom box around its home town, too. They pump out a squelchy, synth-led theme, seemingly stolen from some lo-fi ’90s game show, only endured when your avatar is in earshot.
