Chase Mode: Foxes vs. Hares
Welcome to Gift Chase Mode, a wild, fast-paced game where foxes hunt hares in a festive twist.
The Rules:
- Foxes (2 players): Armed with knives and able to revive after death.
- Hares (6 players): Unarmed but can collect smoke grenades and gifts.
How to Win:
- Regular Gifts: Quick points.
- Special Gift Zones: High-value points but riskier to grab.
Secret Paths: Hidden locations on the Sakurime map are accessible only to hares. Foxes won’t see these secret spots unless they stumble upon them.
Candy Cane Knife: Hares who collect multiple gifts in a row earn a temporary candy cane knife to take down enemies—even other hares!
Snowballs: Use snowballs to gain an edge—hares find them on the map, while foxes get them by eliminating hares.
Other Improvements
