Mushroom Men - Image 1


Red Fly Studio is a dev group made up of incredibly artistic individuals, coming from projects like BloodRayne, SSX3, and Star Wars Galaxies. They've teamed up with Gamecock and created a game about fungi.

... Yup, that's our first reaction, too. Well, Mushroom Men is about the world of fungi. It will take players to the miniature world of the Mushroom Men, about three inches high. Players will take the role of a Bolete Mushroom Man, wielding household trinkets and trash into formidable weapons to fight in the spore factions. Little did we know that a war was raging - just under our noses. Or rather under roots and the general undergrowth.

Both Red Fly and Gamecock are enthusiastic about the game. Mike Wilson, CEO and head of marketing at Gamecock says, "Mushroom MenÂ’s amazing art and one-of-kind design show what a studio can produce when not hindered by a sequel or a lame license." They expect to have the game out on a handheld and next gen platform by next year. For the meantime, you can check out this teaser video about warring fungi.

I know I will love this game.

I wonder if the guys behind this game has done psykadelic mushrooms before. In the video I saw(when the cameras zoomed out) some resembles to my psykadelic schroom trips when it comes to how the eye interprets the distance between objects. It wasn't just similarities. It looked exactly like that in my schroom trips like it did in the video. The way things 'move' even though they are all still. Watch the video again and you'll know what I'm talking about.
