Panic :

PORTLAND, AUGUST 1, 2024 - Coal Supper and publisher Panic are positively giddy to release the comedy slapformer Thank Goodness You’re Here! onto Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 & 5, Steam, and the Epic Games Store for $19.99 with a 15% off launch discount. Owners of Untitled Goose Game can also get an additional 10% off of Thank Goodness You’re Here! on Steam and Switch, through a new bundle for people who specifically enjoy causing mayhem in the British countryside. 

As players adventure across a delightfully surreal Northern English town full of odd neighbors, encounter the voice work of beloved actors and comedians, including the legendary British actor Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows, Toast of London, Fallout) who lends his distinctive voice to the character of Herbert The Gardner.

NEW! - Thank Goodness You’re Here! // Launch Trailer

“For the past few years we've squeezed every colloquialism, bit of regional dialect, and phoned-in double entendre we had into this sweet pulpy shot of a videogame,” says Will Todd, co-creator of Thank Goodness You’re Here! “While we may now be marrowless husks, we hope you enjoy your short romp in Barnsworth - chip pan fire capital of the North!”

“Coal Supper are perverse geniuses, sure, but we let it get out of hand.” says Nick Suttner, Panic’s Director of Publishing. “They cold-pitched us and blew us away, so of course we wanted to be a part of their first full-scale console game. But look at this monstrosity they’ve wrought. God forgive us.”

takes around 2-3 hours to complete.

About Thank Goodness You’re Here! After arriving early for a big meeting with the mayor of a bizarre Northern English town, a traveling salesman takes the time to explore and meet the locals, who are all very eager to give him a series of increasingly odd jobs… Thank Goodness You’re Here! is a comedy slapformer, which unfolds over time as the players' exploration and antics leave their mark on the strange town of Barnsworth. With each completed odd job, new areas of the town open up, stranger and stranger tasks become available, and the clock ticks towards our salesman’s big meeting. The town’s colorful inhabitants are brought to life with vibrant hand-drawn animation, fully voiced dialogue, and wall-to-wall double entendres.
