Inspired by real-world mycology and ecosystems

Developed by solo indie developer and mycology enthusiast Jake Collinge, the mechanics are inspired by real mushroom ecology:

• Eat detritus ‘waste’ material

• Parasitize opponent mushrooms

• Grow above and below ground

• Seek out Humus, Nitrogen and other resources

• React to the environment: wind direction, humidity and soil quality

• Defend your underground territory

• Cut off opponent resources

• …and much more
