Goat Simulator

-MILLIONS OF BUGS! We're only eliminating the crash-bugs, everything else is hilarious and we're keeping it

i wish mainstream devs were this honest

I'm enjoying the high-scoring reader reviews:

This game has truly given me a deeper perspective of life. It has it all, a magnificent story that speaks straight to your heart, stunning voice acting (baaaa), and a wide room for exploration.

This is the game that all fans of realistic goat simulation have been waiting for! I graduated from biology & now work as a farmer at a goat farm and I have to applaud the game's simulation. Very realistic, very fun, very engaging simulator overall..

If you have been looking for the best product available in terms of simulation of 'Capra aegagrus hircus' - or the domestic goat, look no further. This simulator manages to avoid all the traps of confusing the representation with that of the inferior 'Ovis aries, or sheep (after all, goats tend to display less clumping behavior than sheep). Instead, Goat Simulator focuses on the unique skills and abilities of the independent goat, such as jumping and licking, but allows for some freedom of interpretation to enhance the overall experience of being a goat.
All in all, Goat Simulator will finally satisfy the high demand for goat simulation we have seen in today's market.

This is by far the most splendid goat simulator I have ever played. It captures the running, jumping, licking, and headbutting essence of a real goat in a way that the other goat sims just don't deliver. If you have ever pondered about the daily life of a goat, look no further.
Also includes the addictive mini game 'Flappy Goat' so this is like getting two games for the price of one.

10/10 would goat it again.

and the haters:

This is the death of PC gaming. We could've stopped it. Our standards have become so low that we rate indie games that look like they've been made in an hour 1010. Stop for a second and think about the future of video games, please.

Haha, I got a trailer for "Gods Not Dead" as the pre-roll for this. Even better given all the deliberately satanic shit they chucked into the game for a laff.

these wankers took a great idea and made it stupid. heartbroken

rat ta tat ta dah...

While this is pretty funny, it also leads to the unedifying spectacle of everyone wanting to be in on the joke and outlets, without a trace of irony, awarding Goat Simulator the kind of decent scores and writeups that may tempt people towards a purchase. This is where I have to say baa humbug. The joke with Goat Simulator is that it's crap. And while this is a funny joke for 10 minutes, it becomes a different thing when the game's on the front page of Steam for £7.

Never forget the goat listener on greenspun...

I'm waiting for someone to hack multiplayer and voicechat into this thing. Then we should see some fun.

Is there a rift/debate about video game 'theory' or what have you? Like, as an exaggeration, merry prankster goat simulator types vs. "Let's make each shooter more realistic than the last one" types.

Like, accurately simulating modern physics/life vs. making up yr own physical laws or w/e

I haven't played this yet but I have seen a few videos. Not sure it will hold up longer than 10 mins. I would probably give it more a benefit of the doubt if Octodad hadn't come out recently and offered a truly bizarre and inhuman playing experience. This seems more like a GTA mod with a goat instead of the main avatar or something.

more games should aim for "GTA with a" or "GTA in a ". Shenmue = Moses

Finally got home from Northwestern Arkansas. Downloading now.

everything is an abstraction to some level, thanks to the uncanny valley, so how much do you play up that abstraction and what can you do with you deliberately limit yourself in visual verisimilitude? Zelda: Wind Waker has held up the best of any LoZ game for the last 10+ years.

Oh man, even the soundtrack is sarcastic

As the resident ILG lover of terrible games I can't even begin to explain how heart wrenching my lack of compatible system is.

Jesus Christ do they openly ref Tony Hawk in everything but explicit name

Ok, so far I've found Goathenge and the tv where you can play 'Flappy Goat'(starring NyanGoat).

ATTENTION GOATS

A lot of you have been asking for DLCs for Goat Simulator. However, we wanted to do a free update instead, because goats don't like to charge for new content.

Patch 1.1 for Goat Simulator will be adding a whole new playable map, roughly the size of the original map, local splitscreen multiplayer, new achievements, new goats, and more!

Patch will come in the middle of May!

If you thought Goat Simulator's suburban setting was just a ramshackle playground for an adorable animal get into all sorts of glitchy, physics-based mayhem, you'd be wrong. It turns out that this chaotic realm of mischievous mammals and jetpacks has a far more sinister purpose: it's purgatory.
