What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This model allows us to build the game you want while making sure we stay on track. We designed the game to be flexible enough to include your own suggestions and still stay true to our vision. Therefore we need your support and feedback but, you should NOT buy this game unless you like the concept and want to help developing it.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Shrooms is growing at a steady pace but there's still a lot of work to do before going full release. We really want to get the core mechanics right and some important content is still missing so, for now, we don't have a release date for the final version. When the game is "feature complete" and everyone is enjoying a reasonably complete experience we will call it done.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Shrooms will have each of it's core features implemented in waves in the Early Access phase.
During this stage of the development there's going to be nasty bugs that will need squashing, so bring your BIG boots.
We intend to reach a "place of comfort" with each mechanic before the end of the Early Access, so the Full release will be a healthy and shinny Shrooms that is ready to be grown with regular bug-free updates!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Some core mechanics are still in development and others need polish so expect bugs and incomplete gameplay. What we have so far is the mutation system and the basis of the AI and crafting system to get a sense of the combat and progression. We are now focusing on adding the remaining features like the dynamic construction and gear, tinker with whats in place and add the requiired content to answer our needs for the game experience we want to accomplish. Visually some animations, textures and effects need work but we are gradually fine tuning them to create the extravagant world of Shrooms.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Price may change. We have all the intentions to participate in sales during and after Early Access. When the game is ready the pricing will reflect the quality of the final product. This is also a way to reward early adopters for their support granting us a stable development.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We'll be closely monitoring every discussion groups and participate to address any concerns and quickly fix, change or add anything with a reasonably time frame and scope to improve the overall experience. We also want your feedback and suggestions to prioritize and include the features that makes Shrooms your game too.”

About This Game

Explore this survival game in which you adapt to the world around you.
Mutate and evolve to face different challenges in the rich and colorful environments of Shrooms. Join your friends to create the tools of your survival or the weapons of their demise.
This game is in an early alpha state, expect missing features and unbalanced gameplay as we develop the game so do NOT buy this game unless you truly want to support it.




  • Explore a world that is being built at this very moment, but remember to take your friends, the night is dark and full of panthers.
  • Adapt by gaining body mutations that unlock different abilities. These can be mixed and matched to customize the gameplay to your liking and needs. Right now there are 24 different mutations for a total of 126 combinations.
  • Survive by overcoming the cold and heat while fending off animals and other survivors.
  • Hunt the wildlife for resources, just make sure you wont become the prey.
  • Harvest materials and craft tools to gather better fungi.




  • The game is a bit unstable at the moment so bugs and crashes can and will happen. We are hoping to have your help in finding these bugs.
  • The maximum number of people per server is low to keep things sane, as we stabilize the game networking we will increase this number accordingly.
  • The save system is still being worked on so the gameplay is sped up significantly.




  • Specialized Crafting: A progression based crafting system that will allow you to specialize in your favorite crafting areas.
  • TRUE Cooperative Crafting: Help your friends craft difficult gear by holding down that blazing sword blade while he hammers the metal.
  • Dynamic Building: A system that will allow you to build from a small shack to a huge stronghold.
  • PVE Bosses: Get that rare material by defeating a hidden Beast that will need a coordinated group of survivors to take down.
  • Gear: From weapons and tools to armor and working attire, everything you'll need to make you better at every field.
  • More Mutations: With growing content comes more mutations with more abilities to face the new challenges.
  • Others: There will be tweaks, reworks and changes to all other areas of the game like a more intuitive UI, better controls, graphical options, balance changes or any doable features that you might ask us to do.
