Enjoyed building up my army of little mushroom guys. I also very much enjoyed the "Gimme that!" sound bite when picking up items.

Untitled.png CUTE AS HECK! Love the art, the music, and the vibes you crafted here. Mechanics were really intuitive too, it was a very satisfying play. Only feedback I have is that these little green... metal pieces(?) weren't as immediately readable as machine components as the gears and bolts. I thought they were cabbages until I ran out of other components and had to think for a second!

@william-capon That’s fair honestly. They were supposed to be computer chips, but I can totally see that now. Probably should have made them blue or something else. Appreciate you pointing that out, and thanks for playing! :)

Very cute. I loved the animation at the end. Maybe a bit too easy however, no real challenge.

Great visuals and gameplay but mushrooms too many and my browser crashed)

Absolutely adorable mushroom characters and delightful sound effects make this game such a charming experience.!

What a great main menu song :) The game is fun, its cool to build the signal towers and delivering food, so more mushrooms can join the raid :D Feels very overlord-ish to gather a horde of mushrooms to completely whipe out all of the i assume moles? :D Very cool game :)

Me and my mighty mushroom army cleansed the land of the evil spider bug things and restored peace

It was fun, thought the art gave a nice fun feeling and music really complemented that

"Potato" and "Gimme That" sounds are the best:3 Absolutely adorable, very polished, engaging and enjoyable! Truly great work!

Also super happy to be the 20th person to rate your game, nice job guys!

Wow what a great entry!

RTS is hard genre to make and you still got it! (we've tried it couple of times, maybe our current game counts as one too)

Your game feels really polished, graphics and sounds are awesome, even the glimmer of the sea! And it's also awesome to hear someone else making a song for the end credits. Also what was that whale about? Pretty random ride :laughing:

The pathfinding works wonderfully and as an rts player it was quite easy to tell what to do. The difficulty was non-existant though, I blasted through the insects with my mushy army like they were nothing. Some challenge was only thing that would have made the game even more fun. As it is, it was still cool to expand, build up army and see the little guys carry stuff around.

The colors weren't explained, but I take it, they were for controlling different groups.

Anyways, I could see this becoming enjoyable full game - with some balancing and variance of enemies (and maybe the good guys too).

Awesome job! I'm following you guys for the upcoming jams as I want to see what you create in the future :sunglasses:

This was so cute and fun and the aesthetic and game feel were amazing! Excellent job!

It took me a little bit to figure out how to collect the food to make more mushrooms, but once I did that it was pretty straightforward.
