• Campaign Mission teaser: Garden Pot - 27 August 2026

  Hello mushroom fans! 🍄 Much of production is focused around Single Player and it's very unique, exploration driven ecology missions. Each mission has novel objectives, provided by the always expanding Ancients: What do fungi eat? How'd they get in my soil?*Images are works in progress*Ancients awakening, Companions stretching, Node 'Shops' opening...*Images are works in progressFungi are talented, able to digest an immense amount of organic matter. Lignin in trees? Sure! Leaves and other litter objects? Check. Despite being often invisible in soil, they manage to travel very far. Spores on the wind, carried by insects, and frequently moved by our actions, too. More news, art, and fungi food sources on the way! - Jake (SporeBloom Dev)

• Gaining Nutrients: Design Overview - 24 November 2024

  Mushrooms require nutrients to grow, right? But where do they come from... MYCELIUM! Check out the cords, the fluff, the sprawling threads.

While most of the current content is a first pass, the key Spores are being analyzed and designed into their final (fingers-crossed) forms! Flowing with the games stylized and graphical leaning surfaces, BubbleFins species is getting more emphasis on those sporulating bubbles, new shades, and value structure. (gameplay view featuring the old, temporary artworks. Look at that completed colony!) Given the dominant vantage point during a match, these need to be carefully planned to stand out from above. I've been applying my history of concept design and art principles to make them Pop out from the map Retain unique color, pattern, and shape combinations Remain closely in touch with the Spore aesthetic they grow from Stay tuned for other Spores to come and the newest development updates.
