Fernandos33: /* Episode VI: Sporemaggedon! */

{{TOC right}}
'''Episodes''' are periodic ''Mush'' content updates released by ''Motion Twin''. This article will try to keep track of any changes made to the game between episodes. {{Todo|Info about Episode IV: Subtle Seasoning}}

== Episode I: Prologue ==

The Prologue was ''Mush'''s closed beta period which launched on '''19th August 2013'''. The earliest beta testers were invited directly by Epoq, the game's administrator, with limited-use beta keys being released on Facebook and Twitter as time went on.

Initial voyages were extremely limited in functionality. ''Motion Twin'' wanted to make sure that a particular module was well tested before releasing new modules for the crews to use and experiment with.
