Mushies Development Update: July 2026

Here is a short update on what we have been building in Mushies, our cozy mushroom idle game.

A full pixel-art pass

We moved the whole game to hand-made pixel art. The village, the workers, the buildings, and the little mushrooms on the ground are all drawn in the same style now, so the world reads as one place instead of a pile of parts. The whole pass is the work of our artist, BrittBrady — every sprite you see came from his hands.

Workers with personality

Every worker type has its own idle and walk animation. Shakers shake, tossers throw, choppers harvest, builders build. Watching the crew do their jobs around the village is half the fun.

Prestige and the Wisdom tree

The prestige system is in. Reset your run for Wisdom, spend it on permanent bonuses, and shape your next run through a skill tree. It gives the late game a reason to keep going.

What is next

We are balancing the economy, adding more upgrades, and tightening the interface. The goal is a launch later in 2026.
