Weird Fungus
Weird Fungus is a collection of powder materials found in various biomes in Noita that induces 
Tripping when ingested.
Behaviour
If ingested, causes you to receive the Tripping status effect. This causes visual and aural distortions. If further amounts are ingested, the distortions increase, and at high levels of the Tripping status, strange eyes will open and close at random in the background, with an accompanying sound effect. When the tripping status progresses to Tripping balls (180s), a Fungal Reality Shift will occur.
Weird Fungus is highly flammable and will quickly burn away if exposed to Fire or Lava.
All powder variants of Fungus have a very rare chance of appearing as a random material potion in a Treasure Chest or Great Treasure Chest.
Despite Mystery Fungus and Secret Creeping Fungus being coded to stain entities with 
Polymorph, this behaviour is actually never observed in-game because neither variant is able to stain creatures.
Weird Fungus
Weird Fungus is an odd pink material that can most commonly be found in the Fungal Caverns and Overgrown Cavern, because it grows quickly from the Fungal Soil found there. It can be easily walked through, although it does not provide air and can cause suffocation if one remains inside it for too long.
Unlike most materials, it will slowly grow upwards, usually forming slender columns. If a moderate amount falls down due to the ground beneath it being destroyed, the movement seems to accelerate its growth, quickly generating massive spires of pink fungus. Pouring it from a Powder Pouch from great height can create massive towers of fungus.
Aside from the Fungal Caverns, it also has a chance to appear in a rare structure found in the Mines or in a random Powder Pouch on a pedestal.
Green Fungus
Green Fungus is a rarer variant of Weird Fungus, and behaves in a very similar fashion. It can be found naturally lining rare cave structures in the Mines and Collapsed Mines. Like Mystery Fungus, it will not be removed if Weird Fungus is removed with a Fungal Reality Shift. Unlike Mystery Fungus, it will break into the green version of Slime instead of Fungus Blood.
Weird Fungus (Corpse)
Weird Fungus can be found as the corpse of the following enemies.
Notes
- It is possible for a Fungal Reality Shift to remove both Weird Fungus and Fungus Blood from the game, making it harder to trip.
- If you have a scarce amount of Weird Fungus, you can make more of it easily by pouring it at a great height from a pouch. This makes the fungus grow rapidly as it falls. Getting a new full pouch of fungus can be done instantly this way.
