Gidget & The Mysterious Thievery of Hoppity Town
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Hello, traveller, welcome to Hoppity Town!
A town where frogs and other animals have evolved to be as intelligent as humans. Unfortunately, developing human-like intelligence also means they have adopted their tendency to get into trouble...
But, fear not, traveller! For when things get tricky and bewildering, Detective Gidget's there to help the predicament!
In fact... she's in one right now! A mysterious thief has appeared in Hoppity Town and started robbing their citizens! Even the frog police force have their hands full! But even with these thieveries, Gidget feels like there's something more to this puzzle.
Will Gidget be able to solve the case?

This is so good, but it was a short story sadly ( also in my opinion i was a bit disappointed that Gidget is a girl because i really thought she was a boy since i didn't even notice that he was a "she" , pls put some eye lashes on Gidget🥲 )
SHE IS A GIRL, and she doesn't need eyelashes to "enhance" or "prove" her gender.
I really enjoyed this game where I played as a detective trying to catch a sneaky thief causing trouble in town. Solving the mystery while investigating the townsfolk was fun. I’m looking forward to part 2 to see how everything unfolds!
The graphics are really cute and polished look, would just like to see less dialogue to have to click through, even though it has the option to skip it, but if there was an option for dialogue but less of it that would be good. Otherwise looks like a funny and cute story for relaxing game play.
im gettin flashbacks from Ace Attorney, so in other words i love the game <3
Croak is the frog ver of Gumshoe change my mind
Gid is attire goals, 10/10 : D
It's a solid game for me!
I love Frogs, a well thought of story and playing Detective. The latter might be the reason why this game is not a favorite of mine. There was not a lot of investigation work I had to think of and therefore the game was not really enganging in the Detective Part.
I might have expected something here the game did not even promise. But still I was hoping for something that required more from the player.
Needless to say if you are in search of a short story game with a beautiful art style. That's your game!
Cool
Really cute art style and entertaining story!
this is the ultimate comfort game i was so happy when it appeared in hummingbird's crown :')
Hello!
I'm an enthusiast and creator of the project "Keeper of Time". Specialize in translating visual novels and comics into Russian. I understand if, due to the current terrible situation, you immediately stop reading after this. I'm writing with a proposal to translate ur games into Russian. I don't sell translations and leave all links on authors, I also do not take money from the owners of the original for my work. If you want, I can show you my project list.

HI there, would you like me to translate your game into Esperanto for free? I'm just looking to help the Esperanto community out by getting some more games into the language.

Really cute game, I enjoyed the art style and cozy vibes. I had a frogtastic time.
Thank you so much!! 🥰 We're happy you had a frogsome experience! 🐸❤

SO CUTE... i want to live in this froggy town
Aww thank you so much!! ☺️💖
This game is SO incredibly adorable and polished. It gives me serious Animal Crossing vibes, in the best way possible. It made the very top of my annual NaNoRenO spotlight post—here's the link if you'd like to check it out!
Congrats on completing the game jam, and on making such a lovely game! :)
Aww that's so sweet of you, thank you so much for your comment and for featuring our game on your blog!! 🥰💖
We're really happy that you enjoyed it so much!! 🌻😊🌸 Hehe, Animal Crossing is super adorable, it's really flattering to know that our game gave you similar vibes!! ❤🐸
This is so cute I loved everything about it, the meta jokes, the relationships, the art and the investigation mechanisms. The backgrounds were also very pretty and gave a strong small-town-vibe. I'm looking forward to the sequel!
Thank you so much for such a sweet comment!! 😭💘 We're happy to know you liked our game!! 😊🌸
It'll probably be a while until we make a sequel since we'll be working on other projects first, but we're delighted to know that people want to meet our froggies and gecko again!! ☺️🥰🐸
This is really fun so far! And it looks so good? The music and sound effects are great too. Congratulations!
The only problem I had was that I used only quick save the first time I played the game, and when I opened it again and clicked on "Continue", it was like I hadn't used any saving method at all! I had to start again (thankfully I could skip the lines, but I still had to re-do the investigation and some other stuff).
Thank you so much! We're glad you enjoy playing it! <3
Oh! It seems like you used the quick save which only can be loaded with the quick load button (it's beside the quick save option). Continue will only give you an option to load the save that you did by opening and saving via the journal!
Sorry if you found that confusing ><"
Oh that makes sense! Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind comment!! We're happy to know you had so much fun!! ☺️💖
We definitely want to make a sequel sometime but it's probably not going to be anytime soon since we'll be working on other projects first. Thank you for the interest!! 😊
Show post...
94/100 VERY GOOD
Thank you so much!! We're happy to know you enjoyed the game!! <3
This is an extremely cute and well-made game!
The detective gameplay is great, the characters are very likeable, the frog world is fleshed out, and the intrigue of whodunnit is real :)
Thanks for making this game, congrats on your NaNoReNo submission, eagerly waiting for the continuation ^-^
Aww thank you so much for such a kind comment! <3
We're really happy you enjoyed the game!! (=^▽^=)

A ribbiting tale of amphibious proportions. If you're thinking about trying the game out . . . hop to it!
Thank you! We're really happy you enjoyed our game! <33
