The Beauty Generator that powers most of the world. The rejuvenated power source allows for a mysterious factory to open at the southern region of the world. The player orchestrates the injection of Beauty Goo into the statue, ensuring its continued operation. This beauty, however, is failing as the statue ages. This statue powers the majority of the World of Goo through the raw power of its beauty. The story then shifts to Little Miss World of Goo, a land where beauty reigns. Desiring adventure, they escape the island using large balloons in hopes of finding new lands. The story begins in The Goo Filled Hills, a pastoral island home to many goo balls. Pick a world to zoom in and begin playing. The story is revealed to the player through brief cutscenes along with quips from The Sign Painter, an unseen figure who communicates exclusively through signs scattered throughout the world. While the goo balls remain blissfully unaware of most of what is going on during the story, the player guides them through a quest to stop the World of Goo Corporation and finish their journey to the sky. The goo balls work tirelessly to reach these pipes, as they constantly seek adventure and see the pipes as "warm and inviting." The goo balls sucked into the pipe during each level are collected at the World of Goo Corporation, where they instinctively build a tower to the sky. The corporation has set up pipes throughout the goo balls' home world in order to collect them. The story centers around the World of Goo Corporation, a satire of big businesses that is exploiting goo balls for profit by turning them into popular products such as cosmetics and beverages. The goal of this game was to build as large of a tower as possible, a goal that would later be adopted by World of Goo's sandbox mode, the World of Goo Corporation. World of Goo is an expansion of Tower of Goo, a small prototype made by Kyle Gabler for his Experimental Gameplay Project, a rapid prototyping community. True to their inspirations, World of Goo is driven by physics-based gameplay while still exploring themes such as consumerism and the media's portrayal of beauty. Combining their experiences in game development at larger companies with a love for physics and adventure games, Ron Carmel and Kyle Gabler formed a critically acclaimed title.
Released in 2008, World of Goo was the first and only full game effort made by independent developer 2D Boy. Overview Tower of Goo, the prototype that was expanded into World of Goo.
