Frogger Game

This is an extremely simple text-based Frogger-like game, done as a first year assignment. It's not real-time, so movement only occurs when you give input. You will need to have the Java Virtual Machine installed on your computer in order to run this game.

Hopefully you know how to play frogger, but in case you don't, the idea is to get 5 frogs (F) to their homes (made of *'s) without being hit by vehicles, falling into the river, or running out of time on the boulevard.

Start the game by executing the command: java -jar frogger.jar

The basic controls are:

KeyDescription
WMove forward
SMove backward
AMove left
DMove right
EJump (necessary on the "river")
SpaceUpdate screen, with no movement
QQuit

Note that you need to have a cursor in the text field located at the bottom of the window in order for the program to receive input.
