As always, thank you for your time, feedback, and support.

We've taken feedback from the closed alpha last month and continued working on the game, and we're just about ready to open Wormwood Manor's doors to the public for this weekend's beta test.

Before we do, join us for a sneak peek at the beta you'll be able to get your hands on starting Thursday August 22nd.

Not signed up for the beta yet? Request access to the playtest on the game's Steam page below!

We caught a few bugs quickly, and toasted them quick!
- Fixed checkpoints no longer working in chapters 2 and 3
- Added proper death text to each level of the event
- Fixed an unachievable achievement in level 8
- Gave Blaze proper death graphics across the entire game

Thanks to everyone who found and notified us about these!

Coming September 4th, battle it out in mythic proportions, command legendary monsters, and call upon the power of the gods in Age of Mythology: Retold!

Plus, if you pre-order the Premium Edition of Age of Mythology: Retold before September 4th, play up to seven days advanced access!

We are excited to introduce the second update for Collectibles!

This patch includes a wide range of technical fixes:

• Fixed an issue with achievement unlocking.
  
• Fixed a problem with incorrect point calculation for collections for some players.
  
• Fixed an issue where the leaderboard score was displayed incorrectly for certain players.
  
• Corrected the formula for point calculation when burning items.
  
• Fixed a problem with sticker pack distribution that affected some players.

• The outline of stickers added to the collection is now hidden.
  
• Added a loading indicator when burning or crafting items.
  
• Added automatic disabling of page navigation buttons when the minimum or maximum page in the leaderboard is reached.

We understand that the previous version of the game may have led to a negative experience, which is very unfortunate for us. We sincerely apologize to all players who faced difficulties in recent days.

We also want to express our heartfelt thanks to the players who shared their feedback with us, both on our Discord server and in Steam reviews! This means a lot to us and our community!

Soon, we will present the changes that will follow the release of the second season, but for now, stay with us and keep collecting!

Sincerely,
The VHC Team!

New assets added

If you’ve found your way here, you may have already herd the good news - Goat Simulator Remastered has been announced at Gamescom Opening Night Live, and it launches this year!

The greatest simulation game known to man and goat returns - with familiar caprine chaos, upgraded graphics and lighting, many intentional features that definitely aren’t bugs, and fan-favourite DLC, all in one package.

Goat Simulator Remastered has a number of improvements, including reworked mutators, which will allow players to choose whichever “goat” they’d like to play as from a handy in-game menu - no more restraining the entire game to change how you look! It also has new and improved visuals, including updated textures, pretty new lighting, and some brand new foliage for the leaf-lovers amongst you.

It will also come packaged with every DLC from the original PC version of Goat Simulator, alongside one of our favourites that was previously exclusive to mobile. This includes:

GoatVille - The Big Apple of Goat Simulator, as some would say…
Goat City Bay - The coastal jewel of northern GoatAsia
Goat MMO - A fantasy adventure across lands unknown
Goat Z - Can you survive the apocalypse?
PAYDAY - Gather your crew and prepare for a heist!
Waste of Space - Explore the outer reaches of space and see what popular sci-fi references lie within…
Buck to School - From Goat Simulator Mobile, GoatVille high has a new jock in town

Goat Simulator Remastered can be wishlisted right now on Steam, so hit that button to stay up to date as we share more news over the coming months.

We’re so excited to bring our best girl Pilgor back looking better than ever for 2024, the 10 year anniversary of the original Goat Simulator. It’s not like she’s been the headliner of any other games in the last couple of years, right?

A rock party: the glitter of metal and the roar of speakers!
Tracks by the best rock artists will sound!
Dress code for guests: black clothes, leather and metal!

This month has been fully dedicated to marketing and visual updates for the game!

• Added a new car to the game, along with some of its textures.
  
• Added 6 new skins and details for the cars.
  
• Added new assets to the maps and upgraded placeholder assets (such as the vending machine and soda can).
  
• Created a trailer for the game.
  
• Updated the Steam page.
  
• Learned the basics of marketing.

Moving forward with the event calendar, the next steps will be adding even more skins, another car, and a visual update for the shop (car statistics were placeholders at the moment and did not reflect the actual power of each car).
Next, new map variants with new assets will be added.

Thank you very much for reading this update! Stay awesome, more updates are coming soon!
