Community23 Jun 2026Feature SuggestionsHello everyone! I am looking for some feature requests from people who play the game. This can basically be whatever you think will make the game better. You don't have to shy away from ideas; everything is on the table (Except for obvious joke ideas)! Place your suggestions for features in the comments/discussion area of this post. An example could be platformer ghosts, which many other games…
Due to the EXTREMELY low amount of sales The Croaker has generated in the past 3 months and the lack of overall uniqueness the game has, I believe it will be the correct decision to stop working on updates for The Croaker for the forseeable future. The official date for The Croaker's end of life (The date where it will no longer recieve updates afterwards) will be April 20th, 2026 (Exactly 2 ye…
Happy Birthday to The Croaker! On February 22nd, 2022, I released The Croaker to itch.io. Because of this, I am now hosting a birthday event! Collect as many apples as you can before February 23rd at 2:22 PM for a chance to win a prize! Prizes are listed below: 1st place- 1,000 amethysts 2nd place- 500 amethysts 3rd place- 250 amethysts The whole top 3 will also recieve a badge for their placem…
A few very small changes: Changed Ice Physics Added the Badge system (Which mobile has had for a month now, sorry lol) Fixed a ton of smaller bugs Added something but i forgot what it was The DLCs are still being worked on. The Challenge DLC will probably be the first one to be updated since the Ice DLC is undergoing a massive revamp entirely. I have absolutely no idea for when you can expect t…
Welcome to The Croaker 1.7! You all waited 8 months (About 260 days) for this, but it's finally here. Since 1.7 added so many new features, I will try my absolute best to list everything here. Chances are I forgot everything because of how long the development process was. Added level tags Added emeralds (Rewarded for completing a level with tags and is based on the tags) Added Amethysts (For c…
I figured that I should keep you guys updated on the general progress of 1.7 since I believe it is right around the corner. 1.7 is an absolutely massive update to The Croaker: Not just in regards of new fancy graphics, but changes to the physics, huge changes to online aspects, currencies, and tons more. That begs the question: When will 1.7 release? Well, I can confidently say, that if I keep…
If you've played the game in the past like 4 months, you might have noticed that a lot of the server side content hasn't been working. This is because in 1.7, nearly EVERYTHING in the game has been revamped in one way or another. Honestly, comparing 1.6 to 1.7 is like comparing a star to a galaxy: 1.7 is absolutely humongous. With that said, i'm sorry it took me like 4 months to address this is…
A few small changes i've added, as well as one new major feature. Bugfixes: · New Resolution fixes (So things dont look crushed together on smaller resolutions) · A few Server bugs being fixed (Things that haven't been updated for the new servers) · A few Account Registration fixes/changes · A LOT of Level Editor bugs have been fixed · Fixed Level 50 just trapping you on a black screen after be…
Welcome to Update 1.6! This update has quite a few new features, but must notably (and the first thing I should mention), the Servers are back. I have to create new ones, meaning you guys need to create new accounts. Sorry about that, I'm just as mad as all of you about that entire situation. Anyways, here's a list of new features! · New Level Editor! Create and Upload levels with ease now, unl…
Unfortunately, on April 2nd, 2025, The Croaker's Server Hoster, 7m.pl (Who I do NOT recommend in ANY WAY, they are a huge scam and frankly, they should be sued), had a data breach. In this data breach, sombody hacked into my account and literally DELETED THE SERVERS. All of my other servers are there, but the one single one they deleted was The Croakers' servers. Therefore, there will be a MASS…
Welcome to the Texture Update! Here's a brief rundown of all of the changes that the amazing, magestic update has: 1. Vaulted all grass- We felt as if grass had no need to be in the game anymore, so we vaulted it. 2. Vaulted Bricks- same as grass. 3. Changed some of the UI textures- the UI is much more user friendly now. 4. Vaulted Jeremy- we felt as if he was an offensive character to people w…
DISCLAIMER: I am expecting this update to be kinda buggy, but at least you can play the game now, If you see a bug just report it. There are so many bugfixes, but here's a few of the MAIN ones: Made it so that apples now run on an entirely seperate variable, and this is how they work: When you are playing a level, each level has an amount of apples collected before it actually sets your real nu…
Before you read the additions, I need you to know that I have removed apples from the game until February 27th due to MAJOR exploits I have found with them. A ton of new bugs and a few minor additions: Organized Options Menu Added New Playable Tutorial Added New "Stronger Gravity" Mode- Lets you jump the same height, with stronger gravity. This is a beta feature, and some levels may not work wi…
After a few months, The Croaker finally enters a brand new era where you can brutally murder your friends in a kind, loving manner! Update 1.5 is MASSIVE and it brings a TON of bugfixes (Over 50!) and new gamemode: Battle Mode. This is a Free for All gun game, with 5 rounds per game. After 5 rounds, the person who won the most rounds wins the entire game. Give it a try! It's in a HEAVY beta mod…
a list of over like 50 bugs were fixed. Alongside that, account registration should be fixed, but if not then you can now continue as a guest. You'll notice the mode selector now, as well as an ammended Main Menu UI. The mode selector will be put into use in 10 days, when Bonus Levels and Battle Mode are released. Also, you can now play Level 50- you can now beat the game's storyline! REMINDER-…
Started preparing for The Croaker: Battle Mode The Level Editor's title has been demoted to a Beta due to the amount of bugs it has. Level 48, created by SaberzzXD, has been added to the Campaign! New Steam Achievements to unlock! Plenty of Bugfixes! Any bugs found will be fixed in Update 1.5, the Battle Update. Here's Update 1.5's plans: I will work as hardly as possible to reduce the amount o…
So, when adding banning in the base update, it made it so new accounts literally could not be created. So, if you have bought the game anytime from December 25th to now, you can now make an account. Sorry for the long wait! Other changes: Even more menu changes Added Level 47, and I PROMISE the other ones will come on February 5th (yes this is the 7th time i've delayed them i am great at procra…
Fixed most bugs that I could find while casually just playing the game. Here's the major ones, but there's probably some that I forgot about: Chapter 4 was already unlocked The level editor was crashing the game Couldn't save progress at all In other news, Update 1.41 will release on January 7th with 4 new levels, Daily Quests, new menu redesigns, and more!
Additions: 12 New Levels! New UI options for the Level Editor New “Locker” and Shop, for easily seeing skins you own versus skins you can buy! Started doing some menu redesigns, most notably the “Others” tab and the User Levels UI. New music OST: The Croaker Volume I - The default 4 songs you hear, by Milkman Timby The Croaker Volume II - Another 3 songs, this time by me (AlienTaker) New skins:…
Added Challenge Mode Beta (Get the DLC for the full version!) The Challenge DLC Added server status button Changed menu layout Updated Save System Added tutorials Many bugfixes Changed apple text to have a white outline Changed level select menu a bit
The servers are back! I made sure to back up all files this time, so if this ever happens again I should be able to replace them relatively quickly. I also made a new webpage on The Croaker's website, here , which tells you when the servers went down and the current status. I am incredibly sorry about this whole dilemma, and I really hope that something like this won't happen again.
Regarding the most recent update to The Croaker, you can see that you can no longer access online features. It states that they should come available on November 5th. But this might not be entirely accurate, as I spent 5 hours working on a new database only for someone to shut me down. So, I need to find some alternatives to this, otherwise we might be going without servers for the next few mon…
Welcome to Update 1.299. The servers have unfortunately been shut down, so you cannot save progress, upload levels, or register accounts. On the bright side, you guys get your first look at Challenge Mode! The Challenge DLC will release before halloween. The Challenge DLC will release 15 new challenges for all of you to play, and will be available for $1. You guys get the Challenge Mode Demo, w…
Tons of bugfixes, and new Themed Scenes for holidays! Please submit a request under the bug report menu if you'd like to see something about the themed scenes changed. Next Major Update will occur e ither on 10/5 or 10/6.
8 New Levels Elevators, Fans, Coffee, and Size Machines New Graphics Settings: Frame Rate and Fullscreen Consistency: The timer will now be consistent with the amount of time spent, instead of being your framerate * 10. Water Physics Update: Fixed it "deciding" to not go up sometimes, as well as a decreased amount of force when going up and an increased amount when going down. Level Nerfs: Most…
