The game entered Early Access on 4th of November with a strong and engaging core gameplay. Your feedback helped to ensure the correct prioritization of new features and upcoming content. Baby Goat Billy is more than a game to me. It started as a small idea but became a completely unique alternative world where goats rule the earth instead of humans. As I wrote the backstory and created the fantastical world I was entering into a fairytale about a heroic little goat trying to save his baby brother. It is a understatement to say that I have put all…

- July - Game Update - 18 July 2021
Once again, its time to share some insights from the development. During Early Access we will make more effort of being transparent and showing what is happening with the game more often, but currently we try to update you only when there are big/important changes. Since the last update there has been a ton of new content added to the game, while also improving the beginning and core mechanics of Baby Goat Billy. The game has now 2 dungeons COMPLETELY FINISHED! YAAAAYYY! ːsteamhappyː First dungeon allows players to get used to the game, combat mechanics and how to build strategy with their decks. It is relatively easy and should take between 1-3 attempts to complete. The second dungeon "DREADFUL PATH OF FIRE" ramps up the difficulty as it introduces new enemies with a bit trickier abilities and lets not forget, SPIKES AND FIRE OBSTACLES!!! So far, the game has about 2-6 hours of content…

- Dreadful path of Fire - New Dungeon and survey results! - 21 March 2021
This update is a mix of new content added to the game and some reworks of the core mechanics. During this last month I have had several playtesting sessions which resulted in 30 unique users filling out my survey, providing feedback, suggestions and helping me understand what they want to see in the game next. The conclusive opinions of people have been positive, which motivates me to keep improving the game. There are still some connections between systems to flesh out and I am actively thinking of ways to make everything more coherent. At this early stage, even with rather few cards and status effects the combat has still earned itself an average of 7/10 amongst players, which I hope I can push to 8-9 in the future as I keep on adding more cards, totems, more surprising enemies and intricate strategies. Hopefully at some stage I can add more eye candy with exciting visuals/VFX and ani…
- Complete UI/UX overhaul, new mechanics and lots of onboarding improvements - 16 February 2021
Over this last month I have put extra effort to put the game in the hands of youtubers, streamers and gamers to understand how they play and what are the things they dont like. I have received a lot of super valuable feedback, but I am extremely happy to say that their feedback has confirmed my existing to-do list and my future plan matches with their expectations. 1. User interface Lots of players complained about UI and UX issues, I have worked for several weeks to make everything as smooth as possible. Its not perfect but 100 times better than before. It also looks nicer :P 2. New combat mechanic - TOTEMS Totems are additional feature which the player can discover and use them in combination with the cards, they get triggered upon specific actions and can stack up great damage and be an invaluable part of your deck strategy. 3. I have added about 10 new cards, currently there are abo…
- Content update! More goats, more battles, more deckbuilding - 21 December 2020
More challenging encounters await you in the dungeon, are you sure you brought your best deck with you? If not, its okay, you can try combining different cards and discover which strategies work best against which enemies. But beware, your baby brother is still out there.... time is precious.... BGB (Baby Goat Billy) is still at an early stage and I want to make sure that the combat is solid, before committing to creating 100+ cards. I want to explore what players enjoy and what is the right balance of complexity and difficulty. I still don't even know what my target audience is... If you think you are the right audience, reach out on Twitter , FB, Steam or any other platform. Help me deliver the most exciting experience for you! Also the more people Wishlist the game, the more sure I will be that there is an audience at all. This update includes... 1. Talent tree - There are 4 differen…
