Gameplay

Frogun Encore features local co-op multiplayer gameplay, a new addition since the first game. The game's levels are designed tightly and fast-paced, typically completed in less than ten minutes. [5]

The game's moveset was expanded to place a greater focus on agility. Players can use ziplines, twirl and double jump, and launch themselves skywards. When playing in co-op, players can bounce off each other’s heads. [6]

Development

Development of the game was handled by the Spanish [7] one-man studio Molegato. Prior to developing Frogun Encore and Frogun, Molegato was known for releasing Demented Pixie and Supersonic Tank Cats. [8]

Encore was inspired by retro 3D platformers on the N64 and original PlayStation. [9]

Reception

Frogun Encore received "fair" reviews according to OpenCritic.

In a positive review from Nintendo Life, the game was praised for its co-op, replayability, and fixes to its camera when compare to its predecessor. They noted that the game's physics had issues. [11] In a mixed review, Gaming Age called it a "serviceable" title, but one that is hard to recommend. [12]
