LATE FEB ANNOUNCEMENTS! 💖
Mushroom Oasis is now one year old! 🎉
And belated Happy Birthday to the skrunkly himself, Mychael! 🎂
His birthday was on the 15th this month, but I didn't have the time to draw something for it so I'm posting these two celebrations in one go! Clean version without the shadows + dev rambles under the cut:
I'd just like to say thank you thank you thank you!! as always to the community of this small silly game I'm making. I genuinely didn't think it would grow the amount it did. Like, it blows my mind to even consider it having a fandom?? ;;v;; It feels like it grew so much in one year and for that I'm eternally grateful <3!!
All of the fanart, fanfics, messages and questions and comments, and even donations!!? just blows me away every single time. Seriously, I wouldn't enjoy making the game as much as I do if not for you all giving me encouragement along the way and being excited for the game ;v;
((I feel like I oughta give a personal thank you to donators as well, you have no idea how much it's helped support me throughout the months during my studies. Thank you <3 Even a dollar means a lot!))
I won't ramble too much but for those who's reading here's an update for the game! Day 3 script is already done, but of course I'll be refining it some more over the course of coding it into Ren'py. I can't wait for March to begin as I'll have much more spare time to manage the blog and continue development on the game! In between irl matters of course, haha!
Anyways, that's all for now. Take care, fireflies! ❤️🍄

March Plans and Progress! 🌸
Hello fireflies!! After a few weeks of hiatus, I can officially say I'm properly in the mindset to focus on Mushroom Oasis again! For the sake of brevity, here's a quick rundown of things to come:
Re-start queue of fanarts and questions as I usually do. Posts will resume sometime this week as I get things together again! ⌛
Re-opening the askbox for a week for the occasion, so send questions in while you still can! ✉️ Please read these before sending an ask! [Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3]!
Answering DMs I've been missing, sorry to those who have sent me messages and have yet to get a response! 💔
Possibility of a Spanish translation, this will have a separate post in the future so keep an eye out for that! 📝
Possibility of a Patreon, so if you'd like to support me, that would be the best way to do so other than donations from my itch.io page! This will also be a separate post in the future! 🫶
Possibility of merch designs? This one's low priority in comparison but if things work out I'm definitely looking into it for the future! 🎁
As for game progress, I'm gonna start coding in Day 3 into Ren'Py and hopefully get it ready for a bare-bones beta test soon. It'll be only text but hopefully be enough to deliver the story as I refine the script further before starting to code in the images and sound effects.
I wanna keep things short and sweet, but hopefully it's enough to keep everyone updated! Take care, fireflies! ❤️🍄

Hello fireflies!
I've been debating this for a while now, and after some helpful discussion with trusted members from the community, I've decided to make it official. As of today, Mushroom Oasis now has an official age rating of 16+ due to the content warnings listed (and not listed) above.
To clarify:
THERE IS NO EXPLICIT OR GRAPHIC CONTENT DEPICTED. THERE WILL BE NO NSFW/18+ SCENES.
DOES HOWEVER, CONTAIN DARKER THEMES UNSUITABLE FOR A YOUNGER AUDIENCE (especially tropes within the yandere genre)
I hope everyone can respect my decision on this matter, thank you.
Longer explanation for the age rating change under the cut:
Edit: Since some have been asking, the age rating is a precaution more than anything else. I just can't guarantee players younger than 16 can consume these kinds of content responsibly. And with the growing popularity, I feel like a proper rating is better than a list of trigger warnings.
So to ease my mind that I'm not exposing young kids to themes commonly found in yandere media (such as stalking/manipulation/violence/drugging/etc) 16+ is a safeguard for that. I'm just looking out for myself and others as MO continues to develop.
I don't wanna bend my own rules by saying "if you think you can responsibly play Mushroom Oasis, you're fine." That is up to your discretion. Just stay safe out there.
Take care, fireflies! ❤️🍄

Hello fireflies!
I'm happy to announce that Mushroom Oasis now has an official Russian translation for Day 1 and Day 2! You can check it out on the game page here! Thank you so much to the zombites-team for reaching out and volunteering to translate the game!
Note: You'll need to change the language to Russian in Preferences!
In other news, I'm basically one bad ending away from finishing the Day 3 script! I'll be refining and adjusting it from now on of course, but soon I'll be able to code and start on the assets at my own pace. I think I'll continue my hiatus until early March, as I'm two weeks away from my final year presentation. So until then <3

I don't know how to start, so first of all, I wanted to say how much I love Mushroom Oasis! Thank you so much for making this vn, I'm waiting patiently for new updates! (Btw I've also played Lift Your Spirits and even though it's shorter than Mushroom Oasis it's one of my favourite vns too! I really like the atmosphere in both of them <3)
Now to the questions! What is Mychael's attitude to schools and kindergardens? Would he like to visit at least one of those?
And if he was studying in a school, what would his favourite subject be? Least favourite subject? Would he be a quiet kid? And would he have many friends?
I am also curious if people can ask questions and send art/fics about Lift Your Spirits here? I haven't seen much of it sadly.
I deeply apologise if some of these questions have been asked already or I haven't seen something important! Have a great day! <33
It's hard to say what he thinks of kindergartens/schools since he's never been to one. Assuming it's an AU where he's human he'd be an entirely a different person anyway so I can't answer it. 🤷 Same goes for the other questions, it's not really a Mychael thing to ask, sorry ;;v;;!
But I am very happy to answer that; yes, you can totally ask Lift Your Spirit questions!! In fact please do, Alma (they/them) needs more love haha!
#mushroom oasis vn#cheea chatter#lift your spirits vn#this is about the only illustration i have of alma and it was for the 'ty for 5.5k downloads' post#sorry alma </3#also this blog isnt game-centric#so you can ask about any current and past projects!#its just Mushroom Oasis is in active development and therefore has the most focus currently

🚫❗❗PLEASE READ❗❗🚫
With Mushroom Oasis gaining traction lately, I should remind once again that while there is NO explicit content that warrants an 18+ rating within the game, it does contain darker themes since the game itself has yandere content (a trope that is often - if not always - associated with a lot of topics that are inappropriate for a younger audience).
I've mentioned before the rating is around 13+ but if the growing audience starts to cause issues I'm considering bumping it to 16+ just to be safe.
If you are below 13, you are not welcome here. Even then, if you are 13, it's a thin line. I can only hope you understand the nuances and to consume media responsibly and separate fiction from reality.
To keep things brief and end on a positive note, I'm genuinely happy that so far, everyone has been civil and respectful!! So please, keep it that way.❤️❤️❤️
#mushroom oasis vn#cheea chatter#Days 1 + 2 are relatively wholesome#but this is a yandere game we're talking about

Sprite Time!
Sprite work is underway! I'm re-doing sprites for Day 1 since I've gotten used to drawing Mychael the way I imagined him to look. His sprites were so scrunkly back when I was rushing for the game jam haha! His sprites didn't match the vibe of his CGs at all, which bothered me a lot.
That said, I'll probably continue on to make Day 2 sprites once I've got my groove going. (Yes, there's a large number for Day 2 but keep in mind it's minor facial changes to the sprite!)
CG work will have to be put on hold as I finish the sprites but with the way things are going I might be able to finish Progress 3 and 4 relatively close to each other? We'll see!
For now, there's a sneak peek of the first CG you'll encounter in Day 2 (spoilers) under the cut! And a direct comparison of an old sprite from Day 1 with a new one!
There's still some coding to do, such as a gender option for MC's cat, but I'll worry about those later once I've got all the visual assets ready!!
Thanks for reading! 🍄❤️

Hi fireflies! As of 13th January 2024, the Discord server has been moved to a new one. The old one is still up for archiving purposes, but for new and old players this is the place to go if you'd like to meet other players for Mushroom Oasis discussion, chats and general tomfoolery (so much tomfoolery,,,)
You can join it via the link here!
Disclaimer: Despite being the official Discord, I didn't personally make it! Big big BIG thank you to Ajax and Toast for making and managing the new server!
They've been working hard on it for a while now and I'm so happy to see it up and running thanks to their efforts! ❤️🍄

DeersphereStudios Patreon is up! 🎉
Hello fireflies! ❤️
As mentioned in an earlier post this month, I'm finally making a Patreon page so people can support me as I continue development on Mushroom Oasis.
Since I actively post on Tumblr, I really had to come up with something unique for the page to make it worth people's donations, so if you think you'd like to support me and see the extra content, consider becoming a patreon!
Since I'm done with college, I can spend more time working on the game; so having the extra income would be incredibly helpful and motivating for me! I'm very new to this so let me know what else people are interested to see that's exclusive to the Patreon!
You can check it out below:
#mushroom oasis vn#lift your spirits vn#cheea chatter#bts#im so nervous to post this waghgh#ive never done this before so im not sure what the right pricing is but hopefully these are fair#esp since tumblr has plenty of content as it is#anyways tysm for even checking out the page if you do <3!!

Quick Update
Hello hello, fireflies! Dropping in for a quick update on the progress for Day 2. I took a big hiatus from the game to handle some irl stuff for the past few months but I'm happy to say I've started drawing for the game again! (Can I make it for Halloween? I'll definitely try ;v;)
All the backgrounds for Day 2 have been completed after much delay! And I'm already working on the first of 10 (6 if you don't count variations) CGs:
As of now, the blog will most likely be silent for another week or two while I focus on the art needed. But I'm definitely planning to open the askbox and manage the fanart queue once the release date draws near.
It still surprises me the #mushroom oasis tag still has people interested in this game after so much silence but thank you so much for those who continue to look forward to the game <3!!
Thanks for reading! 🍄❤️

With the masterlists up, I'll be taking a break from managing the blog for a bit, maybe a week or two! And I'll also be closing the askbox! 📫Thank you for sending in your questions! 🫶
Disclaimer; I probably won’t be able to answer all of them. For questions that end up not being on the blog, I’ll either 1) answer privately 2) keep it for the future 3) leave unanswered as it’s something I can’t answer yet/has already been brought up in the FAQ.
Nothing personal if I can’t respond to your message!
Take care, fireflies! ❤️🍄

I know that it's a bit stupid but I don't like the taste of meat since I was a child, so playing a game where someone actually cared if I liked such a common food or not made me feel oddly delighted. Tysm 😊
Aww this is honestly so sweet! I do try to keep dietary differences in mind when coming up with the food options for the game but I'm aware it's not perfect haha. But nevertheless I'm glad to know that!
#mushroom oasis vn#cheea chatter#reminds me of the system in where winter crows go#where you can choose if ur a vegetarian/vegan or none#and the dishes prepared is already based off your first choice#very neat!!!

I don't understand ending 1 a bit. I understand that it will be if the Y/N refuses Mychael's requests as much as possible and returns back to those mushrooms and falls asleep. But where does Y/N go that there is a trace of Y/N's body on the grass, as well as a trace of the body of the cat that the Y/N was looking for? How does the forest affect this? Bodies just disappear? And what does Mychael mean in this ending when he says "There's no much I could do if the forest had staked it's claim on you"? 🤔
Oh!! I should change that last line actually. I've gotten a few more ideas since the demo release, and it completely changes the context for that Bad Ending (you'll see what I mean as the days progress and more lore is revealed) but for now I'll explain the original intent with that ending! Spoilers below:
To put simply, the purple influence from the mushrooms brought you back to that spot for you to sleep and basically pass away in the night to nourish the ground where it grows. The same fate happened to your cat; though I feel like a lot of people figured that out already haha. I should add in some text that indicates time passes a bit before Mychael finds you in that state to be a little realistic, otherwise it does feel like bodies just straight up disappear haha.
As for that particular line, it's a normal occurence for Mychael; he's seen it happen plenty of times. But he deeply regrets that he wasn't able to save you from that influence, hence the line "the forest had staked it's claim on you." But again, it'll be changed in the future!
Fun fact: Before I did the art for the cat outline, it was meant to be more of a bump; the art and script didn't exactly match but I didn't bother to fix it. The thing you accidentally kicked causing you to stumble into the ring of shrooms? That was your cat.
#mushroom oasis vn#mychael ask#cheea chatter#bts#i guess this is the best confirmation as to what happened to your cat#sorry to disappoint </3
