Q&A

1. Q: Why would I use this?
A: If you'd like to keep your profiles current when playing World of Goo from a USB stick or a similar portable device, this is for you. This program helps compensate for World of Goo saving profiles into places that are not easy to access, therefore complicating the portableness of it. The program will copy your profile to the local computer when launching World of Goo and will move back your profile to your portable device after World of Goo exits. This requires no user interaction except for running World of Goo Portable, and clicking Play.

2. Q: Is it safe to use?
A: Of course. World of Goo Portable never did and never will contain malware or viruses. Trust it the same as World of Goo or GooTool, and even more, as World of Goo portable will never connect with the Internet for any reason whatsoever. I won't spy on your profile, and that's a promise.

3. Q: The launcher tells me that it can't find the configuration file. What do I do?
A: Simply reextract all the contents of the .zip file, and then you should be ready to go. Make sure that the app, data, and cfg folders are in the same folder as WorldOfGooPortable.exe.

4. I get a box that asks me to locate World of Goo. Why?
A: This means that the launcher can't find World of Goo in its default location. All you need to do is type in or browse to the folder where you installed World of Goo. Make sure you select the folder where all the World of Goo stuff is in, not its parent folder.

5. I tried again and again but the launcher informs me that copying failed. How do I fix it?
A: First, make sure you've actually got World of Goo installed on the computer you're using. Either the full version or the demo are fine. If installed, and the launcher still gives you the error, manually copy all the contents of the World of Goo folder into the app folder where you extracted World of Goo Portable.

6. I know what the Play button does. But what are all those options in the Profile menu?
A: This menu contains ways for you to transfer your profile between the full, demo, and portable versions. But first, a bit of background info. Somewhere along the way, 2D Boy changed the profile location between engine 1.0 (demo) and engine 1.30. In the demo engine, the profiles were stored in

Can you put it on an iPod?


Definitely, as long as disk mode is enabled and you are not using an iPod touch. Do remember that this is a Windows version, so it won't run on your iPod but would run from it.

I managed to test World of Goo Portable this morning on a 64-bit Windows Vista computer, and I'm glad to say that it works, even with the demo version. I've changed the first post to reflect it.

Exciting news: World of Goo Portable now supports GooTool! Now you can also run modded World of Goo along with an unmodded version. If davidc hasn't uploaded the new version, use the alternative download link to get it.

Does it need GooTool?

Um. No. Can you get smart?

Usllally, I could not download it, it always says " Could not find World of Goo, maybe you haven't install it yet, The Disappointed Sign Painter" but I have installed it.

You need to point the program to where you've installed World of Goo. I hope you know where it is.

Hey, mass spammer, you were at 80-something just this morning. Congrats on your 100th. Now spam less and take it easy.

I found it but they did not found it.

Did you use the "Browse..." button? You have to select the folder WoG is in and click OK.

Browse?

When you open WoG Portable without WoG copied, it'll try to automatically find WoG and copy it. If it can't find it, it'll present you with a box asking you to find WoG. On that box is a textbox and a button labeled "Browse..." Click on it and select your World of Goo program folder. Click OK, and then OK.

The new 0.21 Beta is out now. It includes several enhancements, and a fix to a moderate bug. Get your copy now!

Update: The source code has been uploaded.
