World of Goo for iPad is out! You can find it in the App Store here, we hope you guys enjoy! All the little Goo Balls are excited to stream through the internet into their new GooPad homes. Treat them well!

Every launch makes me as nervous as the first time, but our first review is in-  Brad Nicholson over at Touch Arcade says:

“the iPad version is easily the definitive version of the game oft-praised puzzler. You get a real sense of connection with the game’s world as you dip your finger or fingers into it, and the technical mastery displayed in this port is near unparalleled. Everything just feels perfect. It’s as if this was the version of the game we all should have played first.”  Full review is here.

Here’s their preview, showing the first few levels:

And for old time’s sake, my favorite trailer for World of Goo:

World of Good Charity Update

Thank you to everyone who participated in our first World of Good Charity drive. We managed to raise $2400.56 for the charities and non-profits (Children’s Shelter of Cebu, National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, and AIDS Legal Referral Panel).  Meanwhile, a bunch of other folks did some wonderful good deeds (some not so wonderful…) which you can read about in the comments here.

The recipient of our development iPad with World of Goo go to Good-Deed-Do’er Sandy who made a bunch of sandwiches for homeless folks and handed them out. Congratulations, Sandy the Sandwich Maker!

Yep, we have an official launch date now, as well as a launch date video.  A couple of weeks ago, Jamie and Lisanne, the super talented film makers behind Indie Game: The Movie, were in town filming, and in a spontaneous show of generosity offered to put together a short video about World of Goo on iPad.

Thanks you guys, we love it!

If you like their work and want to help them make this film, consider supporting them by pre-ordering the movie on their website.

It’s so nice to see all the good deeds being done, from making 90 pies for low income elderly folks, to adopting a dog, to anonymously leaving meals for homeless people, to donating blood, and the list goes on.  Please keep them coming!

Thanks, also, to everyone who has been donating money.  Your support has inspired us to follow suit and donate 100% of our direct sales revenue from this week to supplement your generosity.

Two days left to become eligible for an iPad, but a whole lifetime left to keep doing good.
