Fun game! I was a little confused as to why I was dying at times and the attack seemed almost unnescessary - loved stomping over everything :D Nice idea.

Developer

Thanks for the jam. =D Becoming a mushroom is not really dying. Like.. Well, you know, many people in history were actually mushrooms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenin_was_a_mushroom

TBH Had to invent the game goal at the last moment so.. Balanced all I could out of it.

I thought i'd fight the mushrooms with sound gun, that could have been neat! It was fun and frantic!

Developer

Thanks for playing =) Yeap, no sounds since I was afraid I’d get bugs with godot webgl builds and would have to use howler.js . And we first wanted to make a first person game about a wood chopper in an endless forest.. So we never thought of a gun actually.

That was super trippy! I managed to survive and get on the boat however! very hectic and fun! 

Developer

Tre trippy feeling was the idea. =D Well, then you missed the fun of becoming a mushroom. It’s not like the player becomes dead while becoming a mushroom. Just.. Different. Colorful and glowing. Thank you for playing =D

I became a mushroom. Felt like I was killing my brethren at the beginning. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! Yeap, we wanted to make it fast-paced. And I did not want to make it too long - 40 seconds is enough for a small jam game.

i didnt know what i was doing but whatever it was it looked and sounded great!

Developer

Thanks! =) Yeap, the game intention was to drop a bit of panic on the player.

Submitted(+2)

Oh, this is fun and a good idea! The mutation events gave me the same panic as the Infection cards in the Pandemic boardgame. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! =) Yeap, with each mutation the mushrooms “levelup” starting to grow faster with a random drop of “food” for mushrooms (those dots make the mushrooms grow faster). I guess it would be fun to make a real mutation for mushrooms in a game like this.
