Where are the rating options? I am new here :p
Thanks for the feedback!
Some feedback I have:
- When discovering a new mushroom, maybe instead of needing to press ENTER, you could let the user just use AB ZX, otherwise it disrupts the expierence a bit
- I love the sound effects!
- The graphics are quircky in a fun way!
It looks like 9 pages is my limit.


This is a pretty well made and solid game! I was able to get quite far by mentally dividing the groups of edible mushrooms into their own categories. There was a period of time where every red mushroom and every white mushroom was edible, so I just rejected everything that did not meet those criteria. As time went on though, the memorization got quite tough. The visuals are expertly made and fit the game's simplistic nature very well, nicely done!
Not sure why this doesn't have more ratings yet.

The game became more difficult every time in a well balance manner, didn't expect memorization would become so hard XD

The only thing that bothered me a bit was that the font was a bit to big on the full-screen mode :)
Fun little game made with a framework I love, passed a good time. Good work =)
Overall a very good game.
The difficulty feels great, ramps up slowly, ain't too punishing, great memory game!
Only point, for me with a qwertz-keyboard, the z/x key setting was a tiny bit annoying - in a game like this its really not too bad even tho i'm sure i would have poisoned two less ppl with better key mapping xP
Overall i really enjoyed my time here :3
I'll try to keep the keyboard mapping stuff in mimd of the future.
Thank you!
The keys didn't work as described for me though, I could only use X and Z, which are kind of awkwardly placed on my (QWERTZ) keyboard, and the A and B keys didn't do anything. Would have liked to have configurable controls.

A and B are for gamepad controls! I definitely did not make that clear in-game
