Mad Mushroom launches on June 10, 2023 in Austin as OTK Network's game publishing label, led by OTK CEO Tips Out with former Activision Blizzard, Square Enix and KRAFTON executive Mike Sibowitz as lead adviser and with Asmongold, Emiru, Esfand, Extra Emily and Sodapoppin as co owners, pitching indie studios an alternative to publisher advances by trading marketing on OTK's 38 million followers for distribution. It announces Atomic Picnic as its first title, surprise releases Splodey and reveals Claws & Chaos at the OTK Games Expo on June 4, 2024, and in December 2024 signs the action RPGs Hell Clock from Brazil's Rogue Snail and Conquest Dark from Eldritch Sword Games for 2025 launches. It is the only publisher on the map owned outright by streamers, and its sales are not disclosed.
