I think that a timer would make the game more interesting. I took my time to click the correct mushrooms so I tried clicking them faster just to make it more challenging.
Great game!

I got to level 30+ something. Oh my eyes :D It does give more challenge the faster you try to beat them. I wish there was a time you had to race against and to show scores somewhere of last results. Nice game anyway!

Thanks for the feedback. Will think how best to add a timer to the game.

This is cute, could do with some more challenge, though.

I don't like mushrooms. Now I know why... they killed me :(

I found this to be pretty addicting...though, not my taste in game. Good to know I can eat certain mushrooms :)

interesting concept. not sure how the mechanics play into it, or even the theme for that matter. the art is cute though

Fun little game with good music and gameplay. Get's a little repetitive after a while, and a timer would've been nice, but great game anyways!

Best I could do was 71, but I took the other comments' advice and played like there was a timer. I liked the interesting tricks the game throws at you as you progress to keep ramping up the challenge and keep things fresh!

Nice work :)

Good fun for some minutes. Didn't know which one of the advanced muschrooms were edible and which not tbh, so that got to be trial and error. The color effect does make it noticably harder to get through the game.

I took real mushrooms. The game teaches shape and color can easily deceive a intuition of a person. You should know exactly where the mushrooms grow and what they look like before you eat them.

I didn't understand what kind of game you try to make, maybe, if you put a timer, this game could be very challenger and interesting... Btw, Good!

Amazing music feels like the "kerning city theme" from Maplestory, pretty nice graphics, i really like the hallucination effect, the only not that good thing is that the game is not challenging, but anyway still fun to play, my score was 597, lvl102, i just commit suicide at that point, should be better to add a timer or something like that to that. Well i feel like i'm ready to go into the woods and eat all those delicious mushrooms (even the red with white dots).

Great game. Very relaxing. It's most interesting in the beginning when new mushrooms are added and you keep track of which mushrooms are safe. In the end I had it memorized perfectly and would have to make a serious blunder to die.

Fun little game, doesn't get repetitive thanks to the new types of mushroom coming in but some time constraints might help enhance the gameplay. My best go was 200 sharp.

I like it. I wish there was a time component to it to force decisions.

Thank you for the kind words. I added the timer option. He actually pulls the session, and at the same time makes the game hasty.

I know it's month after the event, but maybe you'll be happy to hear that you're in my top 10 LD35 summary list :)
