[Story] (Beneath the surface)

Mycelium can be viewed as mushroom's roots. In fact, the mushroom is the fruit of a mycelium, the visible portion. Mycelium spreads for miles beneath the floor. It breaks down dead organic matter, and enriched the soil.

In a way, mycelium kitchen for any vegetation.

Help mycelium to feed mother nature.

[Developement]

I was very sick with the theme "Beneath the surface", and I could'nt start something saturday. I found idea of mycelium, but I was not very confident, and I tryed to find something else. I lacked of motivation. Finaly (Saturday night), I found that Mycelium were a great idea, so then I lacked of energy, and then lacked of time...

I post this game as Jam Entry, but I did it alone.
