One of the limitations I have is that only stereo is available; I cannot
do sounds in front of you versus behind you. By varying the amplitude,
I can make a sound seem further away, and it usually sounds in front of

Hi Marty.
Obviously previous games of this type haven't had analogue control, but it's
a cool idea.
The simplest way would be for the frog to stay static and the cars move from
side to side ahead of you and then a tap to hop past each car or set of cars

Thanks, but I still have a question how the audio game would be played.
Would the frog sit still, and wait for the right moment to move up to
the next object, or would you be able to swing the phone left and right,
and then jump when its the right moment? With the lilypads, you can
swing left
Hi Charlse.
In the original frogger, you began at the bottom of the screen and had to

First, your frog had to pass several lanes of traffic moving from right to

hopping the traffic you had

Correct. At the end of the level there is a section of river where you

No, you couldn't move in all directions. As I recall in Frogs and

That is true, but the logs in frogger were always going away from you so you
had to jump forwards while moving sideways, where as on the plane stage,
both planes are coming towards eachother sideways so you have sort of a
