– Multiplayer shooter with goats discovered on Steam
[Steam page] To be honest, we were unsure if we should post anything about this game, since we came across it randomly while browsing through Steam. But since there is online multiplayer, so why the goat not? Set to be published by Raiser Games soon, this is Goat of Duty, an upcoming “fast-paced multiplayer shooter” where every player is a goat.

Apparently there is no real lore or story to Goat of Duty. Just armed goats going around killing every living and moving organism. No nonsense: no need to master a convoluted metagame, learn different characters, combine skills, strategic team play… just devilish combat arenas, powerful weapons, and fast-paced action. Well, and lots of silly humor, crazy goatstumes (skins), and goat mechanics to troll your friends to your heart’s … [Read more...] about – Multiplayer shooter with goats discovered on Steam
