About the Studio
An independent software studio building games, apps, and software — starting with iOS and growing from there.
Massive Mushroom started with a simple belief: the best software is made by people who care deeply about the problem they're solving — not by committees optimizing for engagement metrics.
We build games, apps, and software that are genuinely useful and a pleasure to use. Every design decision, every interaction, every line of copy is considered. Nothing is accidental.
Our studio is small by intention. Staying small means staying close to the work and close to the people who use what we build.
We'd rather ship one app that genuinely helps people than ten that don't. Quality is not a feature — it's the whole point.
We design for real people facing real problems. Not personas. Not hypothetical users. The people who inspired each app shaped every decision we made building it.
From concept to the App Store, we build apps we'd actually want to use ourselves.
These aren't posters on a wall. They're the principles that shape every decision we make.
Every app we build should feel like it was made with intention. Visuals, interactions, and copy all tell the same story.
We start with a problem that genuinely matters, not a feature list. If we can't articulate who this helps and why, we don't build it.
No dark patterns, no manipulative design, no endless notifications. We build apps that respect the people using them.
We write code and design products that we can maintain, improve, and stand behind for years — not just ship and forget.
Massive Mushroom is led by one person who wears a lot of hats.
Designer, developer, and the person making every call. Kris built Massive Mushroom to create software that matters — starting with iOS apps, with games and more on the horizon.
Every project in the studio's lineup was born from a real need: a better way to track progress, a safe first screen for a baby, a cosmic companion for the curious.
Our current lineup is three iOS apps — games and other software will follow.
Astrology meets wellness. Birth charts, daily horoscopes, compatibility & journaling in one beautifully designed app.
A cause-and-effect learning app for babies 12 months and up. Every tap teaches colors, animals, letters, and more.
Adaptive goal tracking that recalibrates when life gets in the way. No pileup, no failure — just forward momentum.
Whether it's feedback, a press inquiry, or just saying hello — we'd love to hear from you.
