Absolutely LOVED this. Doubling down on the punching mechanic to interact with everything in the world is awesome and hilarious. Also loved the little touches like being able to burn chairs as emergency wood. I would easily pay a few bucks for a more expanded version of this. Excellent work.

How does your game represent Mode?
It's a survival game mode mixed with a starvation mode. You also go beast mode on some trees.

That's a very fun game with lots of details, I really had a good time on this! Arguably, aren't "survival" and "starvation" often the same thing in games?

Fashion VictimThis is great fun. Somewhere between a love letter to and a satire of survival games. I could punch those trees all day.

The RemainderI've never felt so fulfilled punching the shit out of wood to warm myself up.

It Brews Below (Bigmode Jam 2023)As a starting game dev I found this game quite inspiring. It showed an approach to game jams I haven't really thought about. As for the gameplay, I think the pace was pretty good, and the chunkiness felt satisfying. Style was I believe the game excelled the most, it felt really complete and polished, well done, especially in such a short time frame! As for the theme, I think survival mode is indeed a "mode" but I felt like the theme could have been represented better. I hope I am not sounding too critical because overall I was quite amazed by what you made:)

Bored @ Schoolincredibly fun, goofy game. really makes me feel like I'm in a finnish winter cabin. I was a little lost on how to get coins at first but I figured it out pretty quickly, the set piece hints were super cool. definitely ate a few before I figured out there were mushrooms in the house. the ending was fantastic, and everything comes together really nicely for a jam game. great work!

CHROMODE!!Great game! A bit confused on the how it entirely relates to the theme, but it was pretty fun to go sicko mode on some trees and eat shrooms, I also enjoyed burning the satellite dishes, enjoyed the funny green fire

Froggo ModeNice game! The presentation was very nice. I will say it did take me a minute to realize that I was holding the log rather than just punching it. Also punching the door was very satisfying. Great work!

MODEGUY2000Awesome game. really funny. The premise is really simple, but it's executed so well, and having all the game's systems interconnected (the mushrooms growing from the fire, and needing to split mushrooms between yourself and selling for money) added a lot of depth to something so simple. Really good job.

UnDusterThe game is hilarious, the punching is really satisfying and the visuals are really good
Found some speedrun tech where you can throw things through walls so you don't have to go outside and another where by holding a mushroom or the phone and jumping while looking straight down you can go to the moon

Alterable Flighter XI did enjoy beating the shit out of some trees like a Shaolin monk out of hell! Goofy and fun, great job on the visuals and vibe!
