Game update7 Mar 2026V4.0.1b minor visual tweaks* Slightly reduced the amount of stars in the night sky. * Fixed a minor visual anomaly in the earthen rat tunnel.
* Fixed an issue where the player would incorrectly start at the beginning of the "A leap in the dark" chapter if the toad was killed by spiders and the game was restarted. This was an oversight introduced in update v4.0.0. * Added parallax scrolling to the stars and moon in the night sky for improved visual depth.

* Fixed a bug in which the goanna failed to take into account that the player had chosen easy difficulty mode, when commencing its run from the bushes. * Moved the bolt slightly in the combine harvester level so that it is better aligned with the toad's tongue. * Unless you are playing on hard difficulty mode, bullants will only bite if they are not carrying food back to their nest.
Slightly increased the speed of the combine harvester conveyor in "egg" or easy mode and offset the difficulty by removing an extra spike. This now makes it slightly easier for younger players to successfully reach the platform.
