MULTIFARIOUS - A mycelium trying to survive

Multifarious is a local multiplayer Game about a mycelium trying to survive and eventually thrive through expanding and entering a symbiosis with the forest around it. The players will each take control of a small mobile part of the same fungus network and try to connect it to various natural resources, expanding the mycelium in the act. Beware of the natural predators, which will periodically find their way to the fungus and try to feed on it if not fended off in time.

This Prototype was developed within 3 months in combination with a Bachelor's paper at the ZHdK in June 2023.

Love the design and concept but can't play unfortunately. When I run the game I can't navigate the menu. I tried pressing all the keys on my keyboard, mouse, gamepad but it seems like the input is not recognized by the game :c
