Unable to connect to internet

This could be a goo-d point! The more activity, the more info needs to be handled, and this could mean lack of data getting out. (In the case of me being connected, but not seeing clouds, and maybe even not connecting at all for others?)

I'm sure all your internet connections are just fine. The game contacts the server over standard https ports, so if you can see https://worldofgoo.com/ then your connection is fine.

The script that communicates with the game disables itself for a few seconds if it detects the server is overloaded, which results in the error message you see in the game. This weekend there was a big sale on Steam, which resulted in lots of people playing this weekend, and probably freaked out the server a little.

Hi.. I just got this game through steam yesterday for my linux box, and I can't connect to the world of goo corp.. It just has the sign that says "well whatever it says" and the connect button, which only makes the screen flash and does nothing else.

Given that all the forum threads are old, I assume it's available to eveyone else, and I wonder if anyone can give me some advice about how I can try to fix it, or even identify what the problem might be?

Thanks, screamy =)

If you're in Linux then installing Wireshark might help. Grab it from your distro's repos, run it up and start it listening for packets, start World of Goo, go to Goo Corp, try to enable the online stuff, exit World of Goo and check the Wireshark logs. Since it uses HTTPS you won't be able to read the content, but you might be able to find out whether you got a response. You'll just need to ping the main Goo web server to get its IP so that you know what you're looking for Smiley

Much easier alternative: start the game, try to connect, quit. Open up the logfile at $HOME/.WorldOfGoo/WorldOfGoo.log and see what it says (search for HTTP...)

Hi googuys

I just install the demo on 2 machines on the same home internet connection, one under ubuntu the other under macOs.
The ubuntu machine find the internet connection imediatly and I can find the other cloud in the goo corporation.
The mac machine don't find it: "Unable to connect".

I'm a newbee under macos, so maybe there is some config to fix this problem

thx googuys

Right... The Mac demo is an really old version. That's probably why.
