The Humble Indie Bundle is back with their third offering. This one includes Crayon Physics Deluxe, Cogs, VVVVVV, Hammerfight and And Yet It Moves. As usual, pay what you want and get instant access to DRM-free copies of each game.

Get it here.

Nobody can deny that we're up to date with the latest internet fads here at GooFans. By popular demand, we now also have a Facebook page that you can 'like' to your hearts content. It will contain the same content as the Twitbook feed.

GooFans now has a twitter feed: follow us @goofans.

As well as updating you with our news posts and other updates, you'll also find new addins announced there automatically. If you think of anything else that might be useful, let me know. So far, I'm considering announcing new tower and leaderboard records as they occur.

For one day only, World of Goo HD for iPad is only $0.99 (or £0.59) in the iTunes store. Grab it here while MOM is in a good mood.

Today I visited the world's first (and only) computer game museum, which opened a couple of weeks ago in Berlin. It's quite an interesting installation for the general public (though as a game developer I personally felt it could have been larger and more detailed).

Surprisingly, they had a section on independent game development, the centrepiece of which was World of Goo. Here are some awful photographs I took on my Ericsson phone (my iPhone got stolen at knifepoint, which is why GooTool 1.1 still isn't out...)

The last of the Goo Balls didn't know that they were on a pad, or that they were extremely tactile. World of Goo is now available on the iPad! Get it from the App Store here for just $9.99.

GooTool for iPad is also pretty much done, I'm just looking for someone with a jailbroken iPad and some technical-savvy to help test it out before I release it. Let me know if you can help!

World of Goo will be released for the iPad on Thursday 16th and I'm working hard to have GooTool ready at the same time. GooTool runs on your computer and, as usual, makes a copy of the World of Goo on your iPad, avoiding modifying the original files. For this, it requires a jailbroken iPad, as it needs to copy the changed files across over Wi-Fi.

I'm pleased to announce the winners of the GameGooGround beta contest. These talented Goo saviours walk away with their GameStop gift certificates as well as custom badges on both GameGround and GooFans.

Edit: The contest is now concluded and the results are posted over here.

Later this week, GameGround is launching their public beta to the world, but they're inviting GooFans over now for exclusive early access. In addition, they're running a special contest just for members of this site!

GameGround is a lightweight personalized gaming app that enhances your games and connects players of all types. It learns not only what you're playing, but also what you're achieving on your PC, Xbox and any website. This enables new missions, rewards, high score incentives and ways to share success to prove you’re the best amongst your friends.

GooTool 1.0.3 is out, and can be downloaded from the usual download page.

This release features a number of major bugfixes and improvements that will make your Goo experience more pleasant. The full changelog is at the bottom of this page. No major new features are added, but all critical bugs are fixed freeing me up for work on the more drastic forthcoming 1.1.0 release.

Although I released a preview of the source earlier this year, this is the first version with the corresponding source code released simultaneously. If you're interested, there is some information on how to build GooTool from source.
