The Throwing Pinecones Into A Campfire Game — Out Now
Theunfatpig
The Throwing Pinecones Into A Campfire Game is out now on Steam.
It does exactly what the title says. You throw pinecones into a campfire. That's the game.
...Okay, that's the start of the game.
The Throwing Pinecones Into A Campfire Game is a cozy idle/incremental about tending a fire in a quiet forest at night. Pine trees drop cones, you drag them into the flames with your cursor, and the embers you earn buy upgrades. Then more upgrades. Then upgrades for your upgrades. Then you burn it all down in an Ash Ritual and start again — stronger.
What's in it:
7 phases of progression , from your first flickering ember to an Eternal Flame
40+ upgrades across Collection, Production, Fire, Automation, and Ash trees
Prestige + Ascension loops — Ash Rituals for a faster restart, Embers of Eternity for permanent forest-wide buffs
7 random events — Golden Hour, Cone Storm, Starfall, and more, triggered by rare Power Pinecones
A living 3D forest — procedurally scattered trees, rocks, mushrooms, fireflies, drifting smoke, and a full day/night sky
Layered ambient audio — fire crackle, wind, distant birds, woodpeckers, the occasional pop of resin
Achievements, full stat tracking, cloud-ready saves , and a Debug menu because you'll want one
No combat. No story. No timer. Just you, a fire, and an endless supply of pinecones.
Grab it on Steam and pull up a log.
