The ability to 🔁 rotate shops 🏪 has been our #1 request for some time, so we're so excited that after a lot of work (those pesky NPCs) we've gotten it to work!
This will come to our Preview branch in a few weeks, and then to main. Can't wait to see your new layouts!
Since this multiplayer is new to us, we're working hard to make sure it's all working as it should. Next week, we'll kick off a small alpha test to start to put the update through its paces. If you're in our Discord already, you can apply to be apart of it! In mid/late October, it'll head to the Preview branch for around six weeks. You can opt in to this beta branch on Steam at any time, and we'll really appreciate all the feedback we can get—bad connections, varied setups, wifi oddities, friends around the world, etc. We've also upgraded to a new version of Unity, which has its own fun surprises! If you haven't played in our Preview branch yet, it's pretty easy and we preserve your save files, so you're able to go back to your "normal" save if you ever want to opt out (happy to answer any questions you might have) Once we're happy with Preview, it'll come to main, the current plan is late Nov/early Dec. We don't have a firm timeline on that because so much of it is variable based on how Preview goes, but we'll absolutely share once we're in the thick of it! We cannot wait for you all to play multiplayer—and of course, there are some new things we've added that will make it even more fun!
A quick update on online co-op timing! 👥 🎮
Here's the tl;dr 📝
- next week: small invite-only Alpha playtest (apply in our Discord!)
- mid/late Oct: available for all to play on our Preview branch
- late Nov / early Dec: main branch
One Year of Early Access 90,000+ PLAYERS 5 MAJOR UPDATES 6 MINOR UPDATES 10,500 FEEDBACK FORMS SUBMITTED 4,200 BUILD COMMITS (that’s us updating on the backend) MULTIPLE AWARDS, BOTH LOCAL & INTERNATIONAL 1 MILLION COWS HIGH-FIVED IN-GAME (very real and true statistic)
It has officially been ONE YEAR since Go-Go Town! came into Early Access, and what an incredible year it's been! 🥰
We're so grateful to our community for all the support, and excited about what's to come, because guess what??
✨ V1 ✨ is coming in the first half of 2026!!! 🎉
Loved having the opportunity to be on this panel with some fantastic fellow devs! @qldgamesfestival.bsky.social is a highlight every year, and always great to see the fantastic games coming out of Queensland!
VERY excited to announce a feature coming with our next Major Update that a lot of folks have asked for:
🔁 🎥 360° CAMERA ROTATION!! 🎥 🔁
(it'll be a setting you can opt-in to for now, but it is VERY fun!)
A cow and chicken farm in Go-Go Town! with the player building an Automated Feed Maker that says "makes feed for farm animals"
Our next Major Update, Spring Cleaning, will be coming in THREE WEEKS! It'll have loads of QOL updates, including some big things our community has been asking for.
And here's a peek: the Automated Feed Maker! This way you can generate feed for your animals without having to worry about crops! 🐮🐔
Very excited about what's to come this year!
Player housing is HERE and we couldn't be more excited! Please unleash your chaos and let us see what you make!
A cozy nook in Go-Go Town! featuring teal and green walls, a soft chair, side table with a coffee cup and plant, and a bookshelf with plants, books, and a rubber ducky. There is a striped rug on the floor and slippers.
Player housing has been our #1 request since early playtesting, so we are excited that it's coming with Major Update #3 this month!
We've got lots of goodies, including furniture, plants, wallpaper, and most importantly: shelves to place things on! We can't wait to see what you all create 🏡🧰
We're very excited with what we're working on with Major Update #3, and wanted to give you a sneak peek of what's to come in it 👀 🏡
(yes, this means what you think it means!)
Hello! We're Prideful Sloth, a small Brisbane-based game studio who made Yonder: the Cloud-Catcher Chronicles & Grow: Song of the Evertree.
We're currently at work on our third game: @gogotowngame.com, a chaotic town-building sim, out now in Early Access! 🏗️🌇
