Fungus

Weird Fungus, Green Fungus, Mystery Fungus, and Secret Creeping Fungus are powder materials found in various biomes around the world.

Behaviour

Most fungus variants, if ingested, cause you to receive the Effect trip.png 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 Effect trip.png Tripping balls (180s), a Fungal Reality Shift will occur.

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 Effect polymorph.png 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.

Mystery Fungus

Mystery Fungus behaves very similarly to Weird Fungus, including the effect of ingesting it, with the additional quirk that it will convert many other liquids and powders into more of itself quite rapidly. It can be created by mixing Toxic Sludge, Fungus Blood and Sand. If a Fungal Reality Shift occurs that removes Weird Fungus and Fungus Blood from the world, Mystery Fungus will remain, which can make it a useful tool for sustained shifts (though note that the Mystery Fungus must be made before Fungus Blood has been shifted away).

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.

Secret Creeping Fungus

Secret Creeping Fungus is a very rare variant of Fungus, typically found only through random material potions spawned by Great Treasure Chests. It will not grow through air like regular Fungus, but will spread very quickly to all adjacent [liquid] materials. It appears slightly transparent in the world. Like Mystery Fungus, it will not be removed if Weird Fungus is removed with a Fungal Reality Shift.

Fungus (Prop)

The Forest where the game begins features brown, salmon and sky-blue mushrooms on the surface and in caves. Smaller mushrooms also appear in the Mines. These are background elements and only become interactive if dislodged by damage. Eating them will inflict Effect food poisoning.png Food Poisoning instead of Tripping; however, they may be "ground up" into Fungus Blood in much the same fashion as worm corpses.

Weird Fungus (Corpse)

Weird Fungus can be found as the corpse of the following enemies.
