The Goo has come a long way since then though and while Tower of Goo was simply an aimless building challenge, the full-blown World of Goo is something altogether different – it's got a story and everything! Again, it may not be the epic hardcore fantasy romp that PC gamers are so fond of, but there comes a time when everyone need a chance to calm down and enjoy something a little slower paced. That isn't a combination you find very often in a game that actually started out as physics-based freeware in the Experimental Games Project It's also a pretty damn good (and addictive) game, which comes across as a cross between Ravenholme, Braid and Lemmings. I can't do that this time though because the game really is what it sounds like an arty indie game with an easy game mechanic that'll appeal to casual and hardcore gamers alike. It's at this point in the meandering introduction that I'd usually spring the 'BUT!' on you and explain that World of Goo isn't what you might think it is on first impressions. Nor, with it's predictably eclectic art style and soundtrack which sounds like it was a lovechild of Walt Disney and a devastatingly cute LOLcat, would you expect to find out that World of Goo was a sixty-hour epic.Īnd the small studio? Well, it was made 2D Boy – a team which sounds so small that it doesn't even reach into the third dimension let alone refer to itself with a plural. With a name like World of Goo this game doesn't exactly sound like a triple-A FPS, RTS, RPG or any other acronym.
