Croak

Croak is a precision platformer built around a grapple-tongue mechanic. You control a prince who uses his tongue to dash between surfaces, bounce off obstacles, and swing through rooms that demand tight execution. Each biome introduces new environmental gimmicks—moving platforms, hazards you can manipulate, or surfaces that change how your tongue behaves. Boss fights cap off each area. The challenge ramps through level design rather than unlockable abilities, so early rooms teach you the physics and later ones test whether you've internalized them. Success depends on reading trajectories and timing your grapples frame-tight. If you're after a platformer that doesn't hold back once the training wheels come off, this fits.
