I knew I wanted it to show the whole room at once, with no scrolling, like classic puzzle games (Adventures of Lolo, Solomon's Key). Ian Stocker: It was built up piece by piece, with only some vague concepts of what I wanted to see in the game. How did all the different aspects of the platforming come together? Did you start with a grand vision or just put in elements and work with them until they worked? Jdodson: Escape Goat is a really tight platformer with some unique concepts. It can devour whole hours of time without you realizing it, though, so beware! Ian Stocker: I haven't played a lot of new games, but I do dip in on Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, a classic roguelike you can play on the web. Jdodson: What games have you been playing recently? Ian Stocker: This is up to the player to determine! He does have a lot of magical properties though. Jdodson: Is the Goat a witch and does the her purple color factor into her magical-ness in some way? That was probably about three months into development. Escape Goat was the top voted answer, and that's when I decided to adopt it as the title and theme of the game. The goat theme was added later, when some friends and I found a Reddit thread on the best misused English idioms. The working title was Bastille, and it was going to be a single-screen puzzle game that would take place in a prison. Ian Stocker: Escape Goat started as a new project, with no existing code, on January 1, 2011. I am curious how the concept was born and when you decided to start working on it?
Jdodson: Escape Goat has a really awesome premise. It was great to see the Steam forums light up with comments and feedback on the game.
Ian Stocker: The Steam launch and GoG launch both went great, they were profitable and introduced the game to thousands of new players. Now that people have played it I am curious what your reaction to the launch and peoples responses have been? Jdodson: Escape Goat was recently released and was just Greenlit on Steam. After getting hooked in by Escape Goat's retro charms I wanted to ask its creator Ian Stocker about the game and if there will be more Goat adventures coming up.

Escape Goat is a pure puzzle platformer and offers really fun mechanics that will keep you playing " just one more level." The Steam version supports Mac, Linux and Windows out of the box and I found the controller support to be superb. A few weeks ago Escape Goat came to Steam and like many people I decided to give it a go.
