Most of you might already know this game , but for those who don´t know will have a little fun.
http://www.ebaumsworld.com/frogleap.html
The rules are:
1. A frog can only shift to a stone ahead of it or can jump over an opposite color frog.
2. No frog can move backwards or into the water and one stone cannot accomodate more then one frog at a time.
You have to accomodate the left frogs to the right and the right frogs to the left.
(How long did it take you to solve it?? it took me at least 25 minutes)

Well it looks like up to now everybody has done better then i did, but im counting all the time i was thinking before making any moves.
(Laser Jock) I tried the kitty game and the first time i tried i scored 368 and the second time i scored only 163, because the poor kitty was blasted by explosives and then landed on metal spikes....

A frog can also jump a frog of the same color. I still haven't solved it though...

1270 ft. full force 45°, theoretically the best shot. Of course, the position of the props matters here.

Edit: 1354 ft
I got my best shot at 10°. That gives you the maximum horizontal velocity. If you land on an explosive on the first bounce, you can get going very fast. However, the location of the items varies from shot to shot.

25-October-2005, 03:43 PM
Tried it twice at 10°. I got 361 ft on the first shot, 1654 on the second :D

Oops... I guess I shouldn't have given that away. Oh well, since then I just got 1886 feet. It wasn't at 10° either. :shhh: One problem with firing at low angles is that sometimes a plant will snag the cat ~20 feet away. :clap:

Just in case its that you are not sure where to move.
In the kitty game just use the up/down cursors to aim the cannon and use space to fire.
In the frog game use only the mouse to move the frogs.

It is possible with moving only the frogs, and moving them only according to the rules of the game. There is no need to move the stones.

Penguins do not live in the wild in any location in the Northern Hemisphere. This includes the continents of North America, Europe, and Asia. There are no penguins living in the wild in the Arctic regions of the North Pole. The only penguins living in the Northern Hemisphere are living in zoos or in wildlife displays. There are no penguins living in the wild in the Northern Hemisphere. The northern most colony of penguins are located in the Galapagos Island. The Galapagos Penguins can survive close to the equator because the Humboldt current brings cold waters to the islands from the Antarctic.
With a 324+ score we could whack them a bit further :).

You need to destroy the little droids as they pop up. Some you can destroy by slashing with the light saber. For most, you have to reflect the their shots back at them. As far as controls, you click the mouse to hold the light saber steady. However, only by not clicking the mouse can you slash at a droid.
:eh: :think: Right now the link does not seem to be working. ebaumsworld (http://www.ebaumsworld.com/games/jeditrainer.html) also has the game.
