Hey There !

Do you ever feel like life's too fast?

You don't know what the hell is going on, your mouth is dry, words escape you?

Well! Maybe it's time to step back, take a breather, and...

Write some AWESOME SEMI-RANDOM HAIKUS!

Will The Man Get Frog is a chill little game about making silly or sweet short poems and sharing them with the world! Don't worry about the blank page, the game will provide words for you. Just arrange them the best you can!

Features :

  • Playable in browser and on mobile!
  • Gif recording system: share your art with the world!
  • Multiplayer(ish)! See how it works here.
  • Inspiring music made by the talented c.diffin!
  • Thousands of words to choose from!
  • FOUR backgrounds available, one per season!
  • ... That's it, really. It's a small game.

I was joined by c.diffin, a talented composer and fresh new game designer, who made an awesome soundtrack! Don't hesitate to check out his work here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?uid=76573

If you enjoy the game, please post your favorite haiku in the comments!

Or share it with your friends!

Or whatever makes you happy!

Very noice! The game is not as much about creating proper haikus as just having fun with words. Glad that was the case!
