Frog (Iron Lung)

## Evil-Doer

The **Frog** is the main antagonist of the 2022 indie horror game *Iron Lung*.

It lives within an Ocean of Blood on a distant moon and will stalk the player and their submarine throughout the playthrough. It's supposedly apart of "The Quite Rapture" and is involved with it's initial story.

## In-Game:

As you play the game, you can sometimes hear something bumping into the ship, which could possibly be the Frog. Eventually, when taking a photo, you can see the Frog lingering in the background, presumably stalking the Iron Lung. If the player attempts to take another photo, the creature is nowhere to be seen. Throughout the game, the submarine will suffer from unexplainable bashings, teleporting the submarine from hundreds of meters away from their previous location. With such tremendous force, it can be possible for the Frog to be the main culprit of this.

Once you reach your final point of interest and go to take a photo, the Frog busts through the back of the submarine with a loud roar, killing the player.

## Appearance:

Despite its name, the Frog's facial structures is akin to an angler fish in appearance, having orange-brown skin, two small, pupilless eyes, and multiple rows of sharp teeth. While its exact size in unknown, seeing how it's face alone dwarfs the player and their ship, they are assumingly massive in size but not much bigger than the submarine itself.

The Frog's face is the only part of it's entire anatomy that can be seen, in the form of a flat image/png but stretches from behind to give the impression it has a "body".

## Trivia:

* The Frog's name is only revealed in the game files.
	+ Because of it's name and appearance, it is most likely based on a frogfish.

* When exploring the points of interest, a creature with striking similarities can be seen lurking behind one of them in the distance. This creature is in fact the Frog but in the form of a flat image/png, without any animations. Since it's a flat image, it shows no threat and will not attack the player. Even colliding into the creature will make the player pass through it.
* Despite having blank, white pupilless eyes, the Frog does possess pupils in it's eyes when the player takes the last photo: the photo reveals the eye of the Frog at very close range, staring at the camera with it's enormous eye.
	+ However, many fans theorized it is possible the eye is from another creature on the moon, as the flesh around the eye being far different from the Frog's skin and looks rather reptilian in nature. The shape of the eye is also different from the Frog's.
* The Frog is featured in the game ULTRAKILL's secret level "5-S: I ONLY SAY MORNING".
* A beta variation of the Frog's roar was found in the game files, labeled "CreepyRobotSound.ogg", which can be heard here. This was later changed to new one heard multiple times through the game.
