I've been slowly going through my visual novel manuscript, editing text and adding code for what characters/expressions should show in time with the dialogue. I'm around the halfway point now where things get Dark and Dramatic and Interesting! I'm trying to make placeholder backgrounds as I go that set the mood, and here we are finally Inside The Mansion.

Some progress on my visual novel! Last week I did layouts for two backgrounds on the Victoria route (sounds like there's a lot of content when I say it like that) and today I've added some new facial expressions.

In a somewhat-recent DLC for the game, Multiverse of Nonsense, there's this one area that's very... "Cartoony" in nature and design. By any chance, was this inspired by anything specific? It's been somewhat of a topic of a community around a defunct Disney MMO called Toontown Online, and how the area in Goat Simulator 3 seems to have a striking number of similarities to said MMO, so I was curious if maybe it was intended to be a reference, or just pulled inspiration from it?

Apologies if this is something you can't answer, but thank you for your time regardless!

I never expected to get a question about goat sim on here, wow! Hello!

"Goofville" in the DLC was inspired by a bunch of different cartoony sources, and one of them was indeed Toontown Online. I can't really recall if we tried to make an intentional reference to it, but I remember that we looked at pictures and were amazed by how it looked like an offbrand low-budget disney copy, with all the wonky characters, but actually was official.

Ah-HA!
