How to Unlock Mycopunk’s 1.0 Character and Weapons

The new employee is rescued during Expedition Alpha. Finish that rescue before expecting her to appear as an available employee. Her named abilities are Sporelift and Fungal Skewer, with Infection as a passive mechanic. Those names identify her kit; they do not establish a strongest build.

1. 1Find Expedition Alpha in your available assignments.
2. 2Follow and complete its rescue objective.
3. 3Return to employee selection and check whether Mycologist is available.

Confirm that your game has the 1.0 content and look for the exact assignment name. Expedition Alpha, the broader Expedition activity and Population Control are not interchangeable names. The official notes do not state a numeric player-level prerequisite for this rescue.

1. 1Check the current assignment list and mission recommendations after progressing your available missions.
2. 2Keep the level-10 Diffraction Driver requirement separate; do not spend time levelling solely on the assumption it unlocks Alpha.
3. 3If the rescue is completed but Mycologist remains unavailable, record platform, installed version, mission completion and employee-selection state for the official bug-report route.

After reaching player level 10, inspect the weapon-unlock interface and provide the resources it asks for. The developer announcement gives the level and resource requirement without publishing a fixed price. Use your current game’s displayed amount.

The ion scattergun starts with a short, wide firing cone. Its alt-fire spins up the halo, narrowing the cone and extending its reach. Try that change at a useful distance before comparing upgrades; this guide does not rank the weapon’s damage against every alternative.

Snowball is the cryo grenade associated with X11-B, the challenging moonlet region introduced for 1.0. That identifies the region to pursue, but the announcement does not name a specific chest, vendor or mission pickup. Inspect the tasks and reward indicators you currently have there.

If you are looking for a different grenade, note that 1.0 renames Shock Grenade to Voltaic Grenade and Acid Grenade to Caustic Grenade. Those name changes do not make either item the new Snowball.

The release notes explicitly require completing Overtime Assignment before Shocklance can be unlocked. Check that named mission’s completion first if the weapon remains unavailable. The announcement does not supply a remaining price or exact menu sequence.

An Overtime backlog task and the assignment itself are different states. The notes also say Overtime Assignment backlog tasks do not appear until their respective mission is unlocked; a missing task is not sufficient proof that your save is broken.

Some Fulfillments count earlier actions and others do not, depending on statistics stored before 1.0. Read the specific reward rather than assuming every achievement or cosmetic should appear retroactively.

For Cranius, Bunker Buster, relay-tower or Saxito-bag progress, consult the 2.0.1 fixes before deciding to repeat content. The old fifteen-bunker bug is not a new unlock requirement.
