Good idea for a swarm game! I think the monkeys moved a little too uniformly most of the time, but overall it was great getting to control a huge group like this. The challenge ramps up nicely as well, slowly getting more and more chaotic. Great stuff!

How does your game represent Mode?
So my thought was that 'mode' is a synonym for 'most occurring' or 'most', so my game is about gathering the most followers you can! In my game, your health and damage is directly proportional to the number of monkeys you are leading, so getting monkey mode means getting the most monkeys!

Loved the dnb soundtrack and the classic yelling SFX when your monkeys devoured a human. I enjoyed gathering up the monkeys and wish there was something more to do with them, or a win state at the end of the game.

Rat-Tastic EscapeI like the colors and art of this game. Wish there was a different font on the top for the score, but thats just me being picky.

Survival ModeBrilliant! I love the screams of agony when the monkeys kill the suits! Starts easy, but the difficulty escalates nicely :)

Dunki Dunki Panici really enjoyed this one, moving around with a swarm of murder monkeys was really satisfying, especially when you slam a group of them into their attackers. the decision to have it raining while jungle music plays was a pretty strong vibe too despite the screams of would-be attackers.

Little StitchesThe music in this bops so hard, and I had fun swerving out of the way last minute, allowing my monkey tsunami to crash down on some unsuspecting suit. My one piece of feedback is that I wish there were some way to protect the monkeys from the bullets. It felt like once the bullets started coming from every direction, there wasn't much I could do to protect my little guys. They will be missed. I also agree that it was a bit difficult to tell the bullets from the rain in the late game.
Great work.

DANGER A La ModeI love any game that lets me live out my dream of a monkey uprising. Also, the frequent use of the Wilhelm scream was a nice touch. I loved controlling the monkey swarm. Fun entry!

PerspectiveGreat work! It was very enjoyable being a swarm of monkey's and I also love the art of the monkeys themselves. Nice job!

Bobby Wants SoupI had a fun time getting to control a large group of monkeys :)
I agree with the bullet comments below, it also got to a point where it was tough to outpace all of the enemy suits, though I probably could have prepared better with my monkey gathering at the beginning.

Race Against a Duckit was a fun game, I couldn't really tell the difference between bullets and rain and kept getting stuck in trees, BUT other than that, it was a fun game!
