Be Like George Costanza and Play a Clone of Frogger

SUMMARY: Guide your frog across the street and river in this clone of a classic arcade game, playable inside Mozilla Firefox.

George Costanza claimed that "Gettin' that frog across the street was my entire life". Now it can be yours too.

Play a clone of Frogger, "Froggr", inside Mozilla Firefox. Dodge cars and trucks, jump on logs and turtles, snatch the flies, and more in this fun reproduction of the arcade classic. With "Froggr" it's just a couple of clicks away via the "Tools" menu.


Note that most extensions are from third party developers. Installation and use of extensions are solely at your own risk.



1. Visit the following website from within Firefox:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2165

2. Click the "Add to Firefox" button.

3. The "Software Installation" dialog box will eventually appear. Click "Install Now" as soon as the button is enabled.



Installing the Froggr Add-On



4. Once the add-on has installed, click the "Restart Firefox" button. Depending on your configuration, Firefox may note that it will try to restart your windows and tabs.


Restarting Firefox from the Add-Ons dialog box



5. To play, just click the "Tools" menu, selecting "Froggr". The cursor keys move the frog. Good luck!

This extension has no options that can be set.


This tip was written for Mozilla Firefox v3.0.10 and Froggr 0.1.1 - screenshots, instructions, and features for other versions may vary.
