Frogun Encore is the follow-up to Frogun from Molegato and Top Hat Studios, Inc. that was released in 2022, giving more family-friendly retro inspired 3D platforming. Designed much like classics from the PlayStation 1 / Nintendo 64 era, the original reviewed reasonably well, so hopefully they will be working to address any sticking points from the original.
According to the press release they said it will have an "expanded move-set and greater agility for our heroes" this time giving you the ability to "Catapult off ziplines, twirl and double jump, and launch yourself skywards by shooting grabbed enemies and objects downwards" — sounds like it could be fun. You also don't need to have played the original as it's a full standalone game.
