okay here we go

so in 2007, world of goo was intended to release in the summer of that year, but it didnt because i assume they wanted to make improvements. there were a few builds from this time (rev601 and rev821 specifically) that are nowhere NEAR finished, so it seems the devs had intended for the game to be delayed:

anyways some 2007 goo info: the game originally had 7 chapters with a sandbox (image is attached below along with some other beta stuff, like chapter 1 map and the general ideas). the first chapter would go on to become “The Goo Filled Hills” in the first game, even sharing the name of it. the other chapters however did not have titles, but we know chapter 2 was in the mountains, chapter 3 was in a desert, chapter 4 was on an island home to this pink skull holding a cigarette, chapter 5 was a city with a dome(?), chapter 6 was a highway, and chapter 7 was slated to be inside of world of goo corporation according to the devs themselves.

the sandbox was tower of goo island, which was just a grass hill with a blue sky and a pipe asset (not supposed to be there). it had all the balls you collected in levels appear there (even gooproducts). it evolved into the world of goo corporation metagame in the final.
