I originally got the idea for mushrooms from a map called "The Underdark" by CaptainDEEZ. I decided to make my map based entirely around mushrooms as though it was some giant garden.
After about five minutes of experimenting with what type of "'Shrooms" I could make I whipped up a basic layout and copy-pasted the fungi all around in another 15 minutes. This was more of an idiotic experiment then a well thought out attempt at a map. Apparently other people thought it was amazing as it got around 1000 downloads. Of course, it was the only map of it's kind and had a very unique atmosphere. Fire is both your greatest friend and enemy as the whole map is very close and has tall grass and overgrowth all about. It's very easy to get lost in the map unless you already know everything about it as it looks very similar at any given location. Very good for small games, objective modes are in but probably won't play super well. (20 minute map, remember?) This map paved the way for all my fungi-related, goofy maps that I made in the future. No one seems to believe that I don't do drugs of any kind after seeing this map... I don't blame them really.
