Sporelite Games is excited to announce that Shroomwood, an upcoming top-down 2D action roguelike, is now recruiting playtesters ahead of its Early Access launch on Steam this year. Players who join the playtest will help shape the future of this fast-paced, procedurally generated game and have direct input on its development. The Shroomwood playtest is currently available to Windows users.

Shroomwood casts you as Shroomie, a courageous little mushroom warrior exploring an ever-changing magical forest teeming with strange, corrupted creatures. Each run through Shroomwood’s vibrant biomes offers fresh challenges with randomized layouts, unique weapons, powerful modifiers, and unpredictable enemies.

As part of the playtesting initiative, participants will have early access to core gameplay systems, including:

• A dynamic top-down roguelike experience with bullet hell style combat

• Multiple weapon types and modifiers to discover and experiment with

• Procedurally generated forests that transform every run

• Encounters with varied enemies and bosses across unique biomes

• Persistent upgrades and evolving combat strategies

Playtesters will also gain early access to demo builds and be invited into the Official Shroomwood Discord, where you can discuss experiences with developers, share suggestions, and influence upcoming updates.
