You are the local Toxicologist and have been hired to create an extremely deadly poison made from the rare Golden Bloodcap mushroom. This mushroom, however, can only be found deep within the fungal cave. A dangerous cave filled with treacherous rock platforms, painful brambles, and bouncy pink mushrooms. Being an expert in mushrooms, you found a way to use them to your advantage, by forming them into a bouncy mushroom ball! 

Venture into the fungal cave and navigate the dangerous platforms. Bounce on your mushroom ball to navigate large gaps and distances. Watch out for the brambles as touching them could send you falling to the bottom!

The Fungal Cave is a game made for the Ludwig Game Jam 2021.
