Mushroom Oasis
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Your beloved cat has been missing for a few days. You suspect she's run off into the woods across the street, a bad habit she does whenever she manages to get a paw out the door behind your back. The forest wasn't known to be dangerous, quite peaceful in fact, but her being an indoor pet has you worried regardless.
Though being an indoor person yourself, you wound up wandering far deeper than you intended. Lucky for you a kind (but odd-looking) stranger stumbled upon you before anything bad happened.
...Let's hope he only has good intentions in bringing you home.

NOTE FOR RUSSIAN VERSION: While the main menu will be in English, you can set the language to Russian in Settings!
NOTE FOR ITALIAN VERSION: In the beginning, the game will ask for the player's and pet's name in English, but the rest should be in the right language!
- Will there be an android/mobile version? For now, no. I don't know how to.
- Will there be a [language] translation for it? Any translations so far are volunteer work. If someone is willing to, they can reach out to discuss. If you're interested, please be sure to have Ren'Py experience!
If there's any issues; it might help to go to %appdata% > Renpy folder > deleting the Mushroom Oasis folder as it gives the game a fresh start. I did it every time during testing, and everything runs smooth so far. Hope it helps!

I must be crazy because I fell in love with Mychael AAAA why is he so cute help JSMCG4R3XMWE I'LL STAY WITH HIM FOREVER
okay, to be serious, I love this game so much- it made me feel so cozy inside. There are times I get frustrated because there's no dialogue choices in places I feel like there should be- that's just my preference, 'cause I want to hug him and continue flirting (sorry, not), and somewhere else. But overall, the game is so well-made; the art, sequence, the slight animation, choice of words, music, storytelling etc., everything is well put together. I LOVE IIIIIIT. Definitely now one of my favorites.
Also, is it okay to use Mychael's CG as a profile pic? I won't if it's not. Regardless, thank you so much for making this game!! Another reason to stay alive ;"3
this game made me feel so warm and fuzzy. everything in this game is oozing with love, from the dialogues to the art style itself; everything is sooo lovely.
the warm tones in every scene is so cozy, i cant stop admiring it. and also mychael, my goodness is he so pretty. i love how you wrote his character and the overall story of the game!! great job all around, i think this game will stay in my head for months now lol. thank you for creating this and keep it up!!
Esse jogo tem final bom não?
Preciso de mais! Urgente!!!
i know that im not in full controll of the player charachter but if i was in that situatuion id just stay with the cute mushroom boy and not care about home
Same
honestly yea lol
El juego es increíble, me encantó! Aunque Mychael es un yandere, tiene puras banderas verdes. Espero con ansias el juego completo, no quiero apresurarte ni nada tómate tu tiempo y mucha suerte
honestly surprised by how cute it was (
despite the whole keeping me trapped in the woods) :P mychael was such a cutie and i cant wait to see more in the future!!i definitely wasn’t prepared for how adorable this game is! the art style is so beautifully cozy, and the story progression honestly felt like a hug in some scenes. i mean, that’s probably not something we’d expect from a yandere game, right? and i couldn’t love it more! my heart already has a permanently soft spot for mychael, and i’m so excited to see more of him and his story ♡ thank you so much for the game! i truly hope you continue working on it – obviously, taking all the time you need and also taking care of yourself in the process.
quero também agradecer muito a quem fez a tradução em português! é sempre bem mais confortável poder jogar na minha língua nativa ♡
I've just finished the neutral ending and i liked the overall aesthetic of the game. I've named my cat Mikael, so it was funny when i saw Mychael for the first time kkkkkk.
But yeah, the writing is pretty good in hooking the reader with the mystery of the mushrooms and Mychael in general, and the art is goddam beautiful! Like seriously, i would play for the visuals alone. Great Experience!
Lmaoo I just realized there's a dog in the content warning
Literally love everything about this game—the story, MC and LI's conversation, choices, endings, art style, even BGM. I come back to the game to play from the beginning and refresh my memory.
I cant wait till this is finished i want more so badly! Great work!
llevo un rato intentando descargarlo y no puede, seguramente sea por mi ordenador, pero me hacia ilusión cimentarlo
Is Mychael talking about the immortal jellyfish?
Necesito las recetas de los platillos que aparecen en el juego (╥﹏╥
MY GOD THİS GAME İS AN ART GALLERY HOLY MOLY. EVERY SCENE LOOKS LİKE A CG?????
AHEM. other then that ı really like the flexiblty in the actions u take! it doesnt have to be a mystry (sorry for english) or horror. u can simply flirt with the cinnamonroll with a side of dependence (lets be real ı really get why he would be).
A lovely game!! cant wait for the full!
This is honestly one of my favorite games ever! Mychael is such a charming and likable character- the writing and art is some of the best I've seen for indie games, and I literally cannot get this man out of my head. I usually don't tend to leave reviews telling people to get things, but more people really need to see this masterpiece! So, if you have like two hours to kill, I really cannot recommend this game enough, wonderful job to the creator :)
the whole gameplay i thought the first meal mychael gave us was our cat
i love love love this! it's a lovely visual novel, which spooked me once or twice, with good art and a cute mc, i can't wait for more of it! you're doing amazing developer, or Deersphere studios! <3
i am so genuinely distraught abt my cat that it’s making it hard to focus on the storyline LMAO
ik the story is that my cat got caught in the mushrooms were i found her collar but pls just let that be a bad ending thing pls let mychael return our cat to us i need my kitty thats my baby
SPOILERS AHEAD:
AMAZING GAME!!!
My one complaint was that there is never an option to take up Mychael's offer for us to stay as he finds our cat. If there was an option for that, as a cat lover, as soon as he brought that up, I would have agreed.
(Also, it would be interesting to see what he would have done considering the cat is dead, presumably)
This is the first time in my entire life i've left an overall positive review on a game that includes a cat dying, so congrats for the achievement. It takes a VERY good game for me to excuse a cat death in a game (though I will ALWAYS prefer a game without a cat death.
Супер милая игра(по крайней мере пока что ХД), только начала проходить, но я уже в восторге))) Очень радует, что есть русский переводヾ(≧▽≦*)o
hey! i can translate into spanish! dm me at discord: axcambiagenero
This game is just incredible! The art is so good, I love every sprite and background. The novel is written very well, you can believe that Mychael is a really interesting person, not something flat, but truly unique. The dialogues are very well written as well as the plot and emotions. I just love this game so much.
can you open the tin container
the little metal box thing under the bed i need to know
Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!
I may have spent an unnessecary amount of time trying to get it opened
è davvero bello. l'ho già giocato ma l'ho apprezzato molto di più con la traduzione in italiano. ho capito molte più cose. se non sbaglio l'animazione con il braccio è nuova vero? mi sembra che prima non c'era
Inoltre solo io sono troppo curiosa di sapere più informazioni su quei funghi? Mi chiedo perché Mychael li odia e cosa sono veramente. Vorrei scoprire di più su tutti i misteri e le cose non ancora spiegate :D :D :D :D
The fact I can't tell him he's cute or adorable is a crime
I'm obsessed with the lore, story, and Mychael! I played all the way through to the neutral end and had to replay for the chance to experience more of the story but that just has left me with my heart aching and very sad.
I hope we get more of this game soon! Phenomenal work.
Finally played this game after seeing it so much on tumblr and tik tok and I don't regret it. I find him soo adorable. I can't wait for future days to come out. 10/10 would recommend.
Spoilers Spoilers Spoilers maybe.
While I was playing, I was at the edge of my seat waiting for him to reveal that he killed my cat and ate it along with making me eat it in that meat pie the first night. Even that moment in the flower field where we first hear him purr. I was saying to myself, "Why do purr? Is it because you ate my cat?". I just gotta know what exactly happened to the cat.
!!! SPOILER ALERT !!!
He didn't kill our cat, that mushroom circle that attracts the player was the one who killed him, there's an ending where if you insist on leaving as soon as you meet him, you're drawn back there and die, then it shows the image of the circle and a relief inside it, being a human body and a cat's.
I didnt see an image? Just of the mushrooms
então esse não foi o final que você teve, eu procurei a imagem para te mostrar.
in fact, at the beginning of the game when we step on the mushrooms the shadow of the cat appears, there when we find the collar
:0O OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :0(
this was REALLY adorable!!! i enjoyed it till the very end. i also ended up giggling a lot at the funny parts and the times mycheal was all flustured and gittery. cant wait for day 4!!!
SO CUTE!! would love to talk to vida more they seem friendly and really cute. The jumpscares did get me good and i kept accidentally opening the settings (っ °Д °;)っ
It's such an amazing game! I have no words enough to describe how much this made my vacation a lot nice!!! The graphics, visuals, writing- EVERYTHING! I'm so in love with the character I might live that way
i'm typically not into this sort of character archetype at all but after seeing (i'm pretty sure) all there is to see from the current demo, i mess with this heavy. insanely charming writing/character, and a gorgeous art style to boot ⁉️ yeah you got me. the premise is also really funny to me - as soon as i saw "mushrooms" and "circle" in the same sentence, every single alarm bell went off. but hey that's what i get for being a mythology buff lmao. excited to see the rest of this xx
The way I literally don't even want to leave like he's a man that gardens, hunts, knits and does his own home repairs like Y/N said he living the cottage-core dream right now and don't even get me started on his lil blue blush ahh he's just too damn cute.
OMG literally the cutest game i played!! the artstyle, color palette and everything is so cozy. characters are so cool too (╥﹏╥)
Oh my god I feel so stupid, but I just recently did a replay through of all the Deersphere studios, but it just clicked for me that Vida = Alma. THEY LITERALLY SAY "LIFT YOUR SPIRITS". I noticed visually they look similar, plus the mention of the university and the classic orange soda. Is Mushroom Oasis a universe where Alma doesnt die? Or is it more of a prequel?
I've explained on tumblr that it implies MO is set before LYS! It's meant to be a fun little easter egg for people who wanted more Alma content without breaking the 4th wall haha <3!
i really like astronought can you make a second one? about another crew finding the ship that is infested with worms. plot= you and your crew are searching for the ship /the one atom is on. you ether get rizzed up by atom or find a way to kill the worms.
make astronought part 2 please
I did a little hack to install the game on my cell phone, but I managed hehe, and I honestly loved it, I think if the game continued, it would be her going to visit him, or there would be some reason that only the creator of the game knows what he would do, or her teaching the "technology" that Mychael didn't know :3, and seriously, the game is so well made that it has so many details that you wouldn't notice, but even so they tried hard to make it, showing that they dedicated themselves to the game, and I would be very happy if there was a sequel, but no one decides whether it will continue or not, but I hope so, because this is not a game, but a work of art 🫶🏻
How did you manage to play the game on your phone? Can you share the trick? I really want to play the game🥲
I can help you with that! But this actually only works on android devices, first go to google and search joiplay (the first page) install and install the joiplay complement too (it is in the same page) go to the play store and install zarchiver, then come to itch.io mushroom oasis page and download the link of the game for windows, go to zarchiver ( the downloads folder) and extract all the file, go to joiplay and add new game, search the file of the mushroom oasis game and choose the file that ends with .exe, you can give the game a image if you want but it’s not necessary (the version you put will not affect the game so you can directly not do it)
My English is not too good so srry about that 😭
Coincidentally I did the same thing to get it installed
AHHHH OMGOODNESS - THIS IS THE CUTEST GAME, EVERRR !!! AND LAIKA AND VIDA @ THE END OF DAY THREE?? Laika is SUCH a cutie !! AHHH - this is actually so exciting, i'm so ready and looking forward to what's to come in future updates !!
