Shroomwood is a new pixel art roguelike from developer Sporelite Games due for release on Steam in 2026. In the game, players take on the role of Shroomie, a courageous little mushroom warrior set to explore the ever-shifting depths of the mystical Shroomwood forest. While keen mushroom fans wait for the full release, they may gorge on a free demo currently available on the Shroomwood Steam page. The developer will be collecting feedback from the demo through a Discord community that invites players to help build the game they want.

Following the demo release, Sporelite Games plans to roll out regular updates adding new weapons, levels, enemies, and modifiers, as well as expanded playable characters with unique visuals, stats, and abilities. Dynamic branching level systems that adapt with player progression, and continued community involvement through playtesting, suggestion sessions, and bug reports.

The game allows players to engage in fast-paced combat across procedurally generated environments. There is also the chance to discover, dual-wield, and upgrade a wide arsenal of weapons and modifiers. Players will also traverse through vibrant biomes filled with slime, zombie mushrooms, and countless surprises lurking within the forest. Finally, they will uncover the hidden Shroomstead hub, a clearing where NPCs await, upgrades happen, and mysteries deepen between runs.

Demo Key features:

One playable character and at least one level theme.

Over 20 unique rooms, more than 20 unique weapons, 50+ modifiers, and several bosses to challenge the player.
