Untitled Goose Game Devs Discuss Its Lack Of Title, Reveal One They Briefly Considered

It is no secret that the Untitled Goose Game‘s title (or lack thereof) is one of the key reasons why the game has generated so much interest since its announcement up until this day.

In an interview with IGN, developer Stuart Gillespie-Cook revealed that it wasn’t always going to be this way. Apparently, the team did eventually want to give the Untitled Goose Game a proper title at some point, but decided against it once they realized how perfect the “name” was for the game.

“We really did intend to come up with something! We’d always just called it ‘goose game’ internally, but when we had to upload footage of it for a festival, we wanted to make it clear that wasn’t the final name, so we put it up as Untitled Goose Game. We didn’t intend for that to be the name of the game, but it really stuck, and we never found anything we liked more.”

Gillespie-Cook also revealed one of the titles they’d considered giving the game, but did not end up going through with because Untitled Goose Game was just too good.

“The only title we ever even remotely considered was ‘Some Like it Honk,’ because we thought it was funny, but I don’t think [we] ever seriously considered using it. Untitled Goose Game just has such a nice ring to it.”
