Update: Ok, all systems appear to be functioning.

Hi everyone, we’re in the process of moving to a new server, so some parts of this site are still gradually coming back online. Our old web hosting provider (bluehost, avoid them!) canceled our account with no warning for using too much of our “unlimited” resources. If you emailed or tried to contact us in the last 24 hours, you might want to try again. The good news is, there’s actually a level about crappy web hosts in World of Goo!
goo-d will: editor, translation, visualization
Wednesday, November 5th, 2008
we keep getting blown away by the amount of love and effort people put into goo related stuff:
- zark92 recently started developing a level editor as an open source project on sourceforge.
- maks verver (roommate of master goo builder marius) put up a page where you can upload your saved games and have your tower rendered out for the world to see (don’t forget to check out the top 10 tallest towers)
- also up is a wiki-based world of goo translation project… not sure who created this one, but by the url i imagine maks and marius might have had something to do with it (if i got this wrong, let me know, i want to give the right person credit)
- Update: And if you’re stuck on a level, there’s a wonderfully organized blog with a video walkthrough of every level. Thanks Tom!
- another update: david croft put up a modding page at goofans.com, rock!
to everyone involved with these projects, especially those geniuses who started them, big thanks from both of us. our hearts swell with gratitude and our jaws are on the floor in awe.
