HEY Funguys!

Welcome to the November 2025 Funguys Swarm Dev Update!

Our second major update: Egglosseum is coming November 13th, 9am PST. ARE YOU READYYYYY??!

In this blog, we'll take you on a tour of our Egglosseum, introducing the new Debuff Mutation system, four new global upgrades, and new Shroom Shop upgrades. We'll also share updates about the upcoming price increase and our updated roadmap.

Wait... What the...?

[Did something just crashed through my blog post?]

[frantically checking notes]

Uh... okay. Apparently, this chaotic little mouse goes by Nutcase! He's a CRAZY mouse with crazy gameplay. He is a dash-powered character, the more you dash, the faster and crazier he gets!

Skill 1: Nut N Run

[He doesn’t just run… he goes nuts]

Skill 2: Bramble Roots

[Dash so hard even the plants start throwing hands]

Egglosseum Arena

Egglosseum Arena is a different kind of arena where you’re trapped inside a ring surrounded by chickens!

Hazard: Chicken Attack!

[Can you kill something that cute? That's the real challenge]

The chicktizens watch you fight, and... just felt the urge to join, so they jumped to the ring!

Enemies 1: Rooster

[A proud member of the Legion of Peck]

Enemies 2: Triplets

[Behold, the feathered phalanx]

Debuff Mutation

[Ah yes, violence comes in three flavors]

Debuff mutation is a passive card that enhances specific debuffs such as Shock, Mark, and others. It is unlocked when the conditions for it are met. Debuff mutation allow you to create powerful build based on specific debuffs.

For example, if you get skills that inflicts Shock, one Debuff Mutation let's say 'Shock - Critical Discharge' might be offered as a passive card upgrade.

Here is an example Debuff Mutation below:
