From a Slack joke to a videogame sensation, House House explains the origins of its unlikely protagonist.

Oh, hello again! It’s us, House House, a small videogame studio from Melbourne, Australia. Last time we wrote a blog post like this we were releasing Push Me Pull You, our wriggly local-multiplayer sports game. Now we’re back to announce that our next thing, Untitled Goose Game, will be coming to PlayStation 4 on December 17.

Maybe you’ve heard about Untitled Goose Game already, but in case you haven’t, we’ll catch you up: it’s a lovely morning in the village, and you are a horrible goose. That’s pretty much it.

It’s been a busy three years for us as we turned an offhand joke in our internal Slack channel into a real videogame, but we’re glad we did.

We’re very excited for you to play our videogame. We put in a thing where the controller’s light bar flashes orange when you honk. No one made us do it! We just thought it would be fun.

It’s releasing on December 17 and will retail at $19.99 USD — but with a special limited-time launch sale price of $14.99.

Lots of love,

House House
