bit hard to see, but last image there is a stretching Companion mushroom character :) Did you know that fungi break down an overwhelming amount of leaf litter, and are the only organism that can break down wood to digestible components? (outside of some bacteria)

Got some fresh screenshots going up for SporeBloom :) Both of these are from the same map, just different perspectives ;) Very refreshing to reframe the experience now and then. #unity3d #unity #mushroomgame #spores #mushrooms

Got some new branding finalized (or super near to it!) Thanks a ton to the game's community for feedback. There isn't a single aspect that doesn't receive an iteration in game dev. #unity3d #gamedevelopment #mushrooms #mushroomgame

I'm very thankful for being selected for grant funding! It's a big boost after 2 dedicated years thus far. 🕹 You may have spotted posts advertising for hiring, and it's largely thanks to this program's belief in SporeBloom. 🍄 #playbc #creativebc #interactivemedia #mushroomgame #mycologysociety
