Description
Risin’ Goat is an independent game development studio formed by a multifaceted group of video game enthusiasts with headquarters in Madrid, Spain. We want to transform that enthusiasm into titles full of innovation, meaning and, of course, fun. Taking the best from the past and from the current videogame scene while aiming for the future is the main goal of The Goat. Ask us about A Rite from the Stars! We love talking about this game: info@risingoat.com
History
Early historyThe Goat is a being who exists between legend and myth. That's why narrating every story generated around him would take too much time, too many words, too many bits. So let's talk about his last rise. It was in 2013, concurring with the release of the 1.2 version of Terraria, near Madrid, Spain. This time, he will not dress up as a human. Instead of that, he has kidnapped a bunch of real humans to help him to achieve his unknown objectives. Apparently, making a game is only the beginning. They call themselves Risin' Goat to honor their leader..
After thatAfter gathering the team, The Goat led their humans through the mystical arts of game development. Soon enough, they started the creation of a point and click adventure, It will be known as A Rite from the Stars, the story of Kirm, a mute boy who must overcome his rite of passage in order to become a legend. Three paths must be completed: Wisdom, Courage and Spirit... and a Final Rite.
