˗ˏˋ ★ Introducing two NEW Game Modes ★ ˎˊ˗

Two teams was just the beginning. We've been cooking up TWO brand new game modes for Drunkonauts, and they're a blast! So let's get into it!!

˗ˏˋ ★ Hold the Crown ★ ˎˊ˗

A crown, a timer, and everyone gunning to take it from you.

「 ✦ How It Works ✦ 」

The crown spawns in the center of the map.

First to touch it, wears it.

Hold the crown to earn points and fill your mug.

❗ Lose the crown, lose your lead ❗

Get hit, knocked out or off the map and the crown flies off your head. Now everyone's sprinting to grab it. 🏃💨

Grab it. Defend it. Don't let go. 👑

「 ✦ Special Rules ✦ 」

🍺 Happy Hour ❯❯❯❯ On the final map, points stack 2x faster! Your perfect comeback window!!

⏱️ Overtime ❯❯❯❯ If the clock hits 00:00 on the last map but the crown-holder isn't in 1st place, the round keeps going. It ends when whoever has the crown drops it.

👑 Instant Win ❯❯❯❯ Fill your meter to the max mid-round and the match ends on the spot. Crowned champion!

˗ˏˋ ★ King of the Hill ★ ˎˊ˗

One zone. One king. Everyone else is in your way.

「 ✦ How It Works ✦ 」

Stand in the capture zone to earn points and fill your mug.

You've gotta be the only one in there to score.

The player with the max score wins. 🏆

Claim the hill and hold the throne. 🍺

Read the Zone - it tells you everything!

❯❯❯❯ 🟡 Idle - Neutral and empty. Nobody's scoring.

❯❯❯❯ 🟢 Occupied - One player inside. Points flow continuously, and the zone's particles pull toward them so you always know who's scoring.

❯❯❯❯ 🔴 Contested - Two or more players inside. Scoring locks for everyone until only one's left standing. (Knocked out or yeeted players don't count!)

But be careful, the zone moves! It runs on energy. The longer it's held, the more the outer ring drains.

Hit zero and it vanishes, reappearing somewhere new. No camping. Keep moving! 🏃💨

「 ✦ Special Rules ✦ 」

⏱️ Overtime ❯❯❯❯ If the clock hits 00:00 while the zone is Contested or held by someone in 2nd-4th place, Overtime kicks in. The zone stops moving. The round ends the moment the zone goes empty, the leader claims it, or 1st place gets dethroned.

👑 Instant Win ❯❯❯❯ First to hit the max score takes the match instantly.
