• A malevolent goose is loose in a quaint English village. It’s not an obvious premise for a videogame but it turned out to be exactly the type of game that would make sense being dreamt up and made in inner-city Melbourne in the late 2010s. Untitled Goose Game has now become one of Australia’s most recognisable videogame exports of the past decade. But the story of its success isn’t one of developing an IP-optimised, commercial product—it begins and ends with friends making each other laugh. Untitled Goose Game’s concept spawned from a joke in an online group chat between House House’s Jake Strasser, Stuart Gillespie-Cook, Nico Disseldorp and Michael McMaster.
• In this magazine style publication, you’ll hear about the development of the game from the creators, see how a writer embodied the attitude of the goose, discover how its iconic music score was made, and how it inspired memes and fandoms. It also features exclusive design material, sketches and concept art to reveal the process behind the global hit.
