A collect-a-thon about a frog fixing the solar system after it explodes for some reason. Nice.

Use your tongue to lick enemies and objects to make your way through metroidvania-like areas, whilst collecting "Planet Bits" to help fix the solar system! Journey through 5 uniquely themed areas ranging from a huge sprawling bakery to the world's most poorly planned city.

Look at all that "Game!"

RUBATO has the style of a long-lost game from a certain dual-screen handheld device, mixed with an early 2000's inspired soundtrack. The game has a strange, funny plot with a deep focus on humour and character writing. Expect incredibly weird characters and scenarios, ranging from fighting a giant dumpling with very toned legs to driving physics-based clown cars in a grand prix.

The game also houses a deep ancient evil that you ABSOLUTELY have to promise to not release into the mortal realm when you play the game.

Oh. I guess it escaped. Great.
