We have released Ver.1.1.0 with the following updates:
Update Details
Revamped “Single Play” Mode
The previous “Practice with CPU” mode has been reborn as “Single Play”!
What was once a 1v1 format has now been expanded into a 4-player battle featuring the player plus three CPU opponents.
Even when playing solo, you can now fully experience the strategic depth and excitement that the game is all about.
Selectable Waiting Method for Random Matches
You can now choose how long to wait when entering a Random Match: “Short” (up to 60 seconds) “Long”
If you select “Short” and matchmaking doesn’t complete within 60 seconds, CPU players will be added to start a 4-player match.
If you select “Long,” the game will keep waiting until you’re matched with other players. A 60-second countdown begins when you’re first matched with another player. Once the timer reaches zero, the game starts with the number of players currently waiting in the matchmaking queue.
Various UI Adjustments
We’ve updated various UI elements in accordance with the above changes.
Whether you’re trying the demo for the first time or have been playing since its initial release, this new version offers a refreshed experience.
The updated demo is now available on Steam starting today!
Introducing the Game Rules! See what's changed for versus play!
The basic rules are unchanged from the previous title.
Combine fruits of the same kind to make them bigger!
Keep growing your fruits bigger and bigger to aim for victory!
Victory goes to the player who earns the highest score in 4 minutes, or the one who creates a watermelon first! It's up to you which strategy to pursue: focus intensely on making many large fruits to rack up your score, or carefully aim to complete a watermelon.
In this game, dropping fruit won't end your run; you can keep playing!
In Fruit Mountain, if fruit fell off the plate, it was game over. But in Fruit Mountain Party, that won't happen. However, dropping fruit will result in a score deduction and you'll lose any items you've acquired. So, try your best not to let them fall!
Interfere with your opponents using Jammer Fruit and Items!
When you create a large fruit, the Jammer Fruit will be sent to your rival. Send them many to interfere with their game.
Additionally, making large fruits will also cancel out any the Jammer Fruit your rival sends your way. the Jammer Fruit will drop at the location of the gray marker.
You'll randomly get an 'Item' when your Item Gauge is full! The Item Gauge fills up by throwing in fruits or by chaining combos. You can use an item by pressing the X button or the Z key.
There are 7 types of items!
| [Paint] Hurl paint to cover a random player's screen, obstructing their view.
|
| [Upgrade] Increases the size of the fruit in your hand by one stage. |
| [Jammer Fruit / Jammer Fruitx3] Drops Jammer Fruit onto a random player's plate.
|
| [Minus Fruit / Minus Fruitx3] Drops Minus fruit onto a target player's plate, shrinking their fruit.
|
| [Fruit Thief] Steals the second-largest fruit from a target player's plate. |
Keep growing your fruits to send back Jammer Fruit' and utilize various 'Items' to gain an advantage!
The demo will remain free to play even after the Steam Next Fest concludes.
Our staff also join random matches, so be sure to challenge them!
