DARE to enter Mycelium: The Silent Contract beta playtest!

[h3]Hey, Contractors,[/h3][h3]Lex here.[/h3][p][/p][p]I’ve been hunkered down in the dev-den for what feels like an eternity, but the spores are finally spreading. I'm beyond stoked to announce that Mycelium: The Silent Contract is officially opening its doors—well, its root systems—for our first major Beta Playtest.[/p][p]The Playtest is now LIVE! Everyone asking to join will be granted instant access and up to 3 friend invites. Just press the "Join the Playtest" button right under the trailer on the game's Steam page. [/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink](If you haven't yet - make sure you wishlist the game while you're there - the buttons are right next to each other. Convenient!) [/p][h2]A beta what, now?[/h2][p]Wait, what’s actually in this Beta? How is it different from the demo? I'm tossing you into a chunky slice of the early game. Expect some heavy lifting on the atmosphere, a few "did I just see that?" moments, and the core mechanics of the contract itself. It’s a bit raw—expect a few jagged edges here and there—but that’s the whole point of a playtest, isn't it? We’ll be letting folks in in waves because, honestly, we don't want too many people at once stomping on the precious mushroom roots, now do we? [/p][p]A quick favor... Since we're a small team, your feedback is basically our lifeblood. If you find a bug that lets you fly through walls or if a particular texture looks like mashed potatoes—tell us. We’ve set up a specific channel in our Discord for the nitty-gritty feedback. Once the playtest goes live (and anyone who signs up for it WILL be notified when it does), there will also be a short survey accessible via game's menu to make it easy for you to leave structured feedback quick and hassle-free. Because enough of the challenge here comes from the Forest itself, and its denizens. [/p][p]It’s been a long road getting to this point. There were moments where I thought we'd never get the stars and the fungal growth patterns to look "align just right," but here we are. It’s weird, it’s quiet, and it’s waiting for you. [/p][p]See you in the forest. [/p][h2]— Po Kolu[/h2]
