There seemed to be a lot of demand for a demo version, so we made one! (download link) This demo contains the entire Chapter 1. More download locations are here. [update: jason over at fileplanet just informed us that they started serving up the demo as well and are also promoting it on their front page! thanks jason!]

Meanwhile, according to metacritic, we (theoretically) have a 97.5 if you average our only two scores that actually seemed to be counted. If you see any reviews online, post them here in the comments. We’re filled with glee over how the game been received so far, thanks to everyone who has written about us!

Update: If you are in a region of the world where you cannot get World of Goo for some reason, the version here is 100% region free.

Update2: World of Goo fan fiction, oh no! (thanks Kieron)

Video Review (spoiler warning)

We debated whether or not to post this, since it contains some big spoilers. But Stephen has such great things to say, and says them so well, it hurt not to.  Also, World of Goo comes out TOMORROW! (…but actually available a little early)
