🍄 Shrumbo from Ooblets 🍄

Ooblets is my go-to comfort game. While Shrumbo isn't my starter Ooblet, I wanted to felt one because they're just so cute!

The last pic is my cursed first attempt 👻

A shrumbo! (from the game Ooblets)

2 days ago: I tried to change my name on the Epic launcher to something I could give folks to add me as a friend so we can do multiplayer on this week's free rhythm game.

Yesterday: Got an email from Epic support saying my username had violated their terms of service and been replaced with a randomized string of letters and numbers and that I had to change it to something else. Confused, I decided to not worry about it and just pick a different username, but it told me I couldn't change my username again for 2 weeks. Confused and frustrated, I wrote to support asking What The Heck.

Today: Got another email from Epic support saying my appeal had been reviewed and denied. My username had been found to violate the terms of service and I would have the chance to change it again in two weeks.

I wrote them back asking what, exactly, had violated the terms of service about the username SecretShrumbies. Is it some slang term I'm not aware of? Do they think I'm making a drug reference, if so, does that mean they do not allow any usernames that reference any sort of fungal life forms because they could maybe, just maybe, be making an extremely obscure drug reference? I pointed out that I'd based the username off of Shrumbo, a mushroom-shaped little friend from the extremely wholesome family-friendly game Ooblets - which was an Epic exclusive when it first came out!

So far, no response. I've asked around to see if anyone has any idea what's wrong with the username and the only suggestions have been "maybe they think you meant drugs somehow?" and "I bet they have a fucking AI bot scanning this shit and some fucking LLM decided that some combination of those letters meant something bad, and they never bothered having a real life actual human being look at it," and honestly, that's fucking horrifying and probably correct.

I almost wish I was still on Twitter so I could kick up a big public stink about it and maybe get them to fix it, but a stupid username I made up on the spot is not worth going back to that place.

I'm just... What the actual fuck kind of world do we live in at this point? There's no way to talk to a human being anymore. The fucking algorithms have decided what words we're allowed to say forever, based on their puritan advertiser-friendly insanity, we don't own anything, and you can never, ever just speak to a fucking human being anymore.

scrunk of the day 5: Shrumbo (ooblets)

[crystallizedgoo]

Sweet baby Shrumbo~

[redpandapup]

I made all these teeny ooblets plushies back when the game was still in early access, and today it's out on steam!!! I never took very good pictures of most of these guys and decided to celebrate today by giving them a lil fall photoshoot hehe. And also the gubwee I made on commission, who isn't in the house for me to take better pics of. Also I know I took a commission for a Tud at some point but for the life of me I can't find photo evidence of him???

Anyway, getting these lil lads together for these pics is giving me a hanker to make some more...

🍄 Round 1: Match 9 🍄

🍄 Vote for your Favorite Fungi! 🍄

Descriptions Below ⬇️

Brown Slim Mushroom

“Theyre just a funny enemy in an rpg, but when they directly addressed the player and said "why do you do this? You are hurting yourself. Please quit." I nearly shat myself. Also theme song slaps” - Submission 29

“funky guy who may or may not be an actual psychedelic mushroom, gives you a gem needed for a secret ending if you complete their (possibly literal) drug trip of a boss fight” - Submission 77

“creepy little thing that gives you an existential crisis and also a gem” - Submission 121

“Weird little mushroom with a psychedelic boss fight. They're also the holder of this gem which is one of the keys to fighting the developers' gnomesonas (thats the best way i can explain the dev gnomes).” - Submission 131

“Elder of the mushroom forest, and the game’s first hidden boss to become available. Offers to let you fight them as a chance to catch a glimpse of otherworldly truth as thanks for entertaining their unenlightened kin. Has psychedelic powers, which are used to throw you off during their endurance match of a fight, and if you succeed, to allow you to commune with higher powers and learn an Absolute Truth about the world. Upon waking up, they also give you one of the three gemstones that serve as keys to the final non-NG+ secret boss: a fight with a representation of the developers themselves.

If you save the fight until you’ve gained the ability to deflect attacks, you can defeat them, but as mushrooms have no souls you cannot kill Brown Slim Mushroom in any way that matters…” - Submission 132

Shrumbo

“They are the mascot ooblets of the Mossprouts club, they love dance battles and have cards that give high points. They are also cute little guys” - Submission 165

“Shrumbos are the mascot ooblets of the Mossprouts club. They have a very straightforward dance battle style. Wild shrumbos can only be lured into dances with exclusive Mossprouts treabies.” - Ooblets Wiki

obsessed with Ooblets, made a Shrumbo ❤️

[mrkdicey]

I’ve been having an ooblets mindset and have been playing the game like crazy as of recent. To a point where I wanted to make something from the game, and what better way to do that by making a clay figure? Specifically of one of my favourite ooblets

Shrumbo my beloved ✨❤️

Air-dry clay is quite hard stuff to mold with so it does look a bit messy and but I still love how it turned out!

[w1tchcr4ftt]

I love finding games I havent played in years and spending unhealthily amounts of time on them
