'Good Boy' Is A Heart-warming, Ecosystem Driven Metroidvania Game Coming To PC - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on April 15, 2025 @ 4:48 p.m. PDT

Featuring characters based on real life pets of the developers, Good Boy is a heart-warming, ecosystem driven metroidvania that offers adventure for all and a story that blends Wall-E with wonderful memories of humans' best friend.

LAIKA welcomes you on your journey to the alien planet of Terra II. As you know the LAIKA Programme gave old dogs a new lease on life by transferring their consciousness into Rovers, allowing them to live on forever as a brave space explorer!

Equipped with your very own Space Rover, we're looking forward to seeing all you capture as you sniff out and investigate various regions of the planet and research the lifeforms that inhabit it.  

You will encounter other Rovers and in the interest of solidarity we would encourage you to complete quests for them and most importantly forge a bond with your new Human friend, as you uncover the ancient mysteries of the planet. 


Key Features:  

  • A Human's Best Friend: When an Anomaly is detected on the remote, alien planet Terra II, a Human explorer is sent out to investigate. After a bumpy landing, the Human's S.O.S beacon awakens a nearby, dormant LAIKA Rover. Together, you'll go on a journey to find the Anomaly and unravel the story behind its mysterious origin. Form an unbreakable bond as you work together to complete the Human's mission. 
  • Eco-system Metroidvania: Use a variety of tools and upgrades to capture the exotic creatures of Terra II. Harness their unique abilities to overcome obstacles and expand the world or bring them back to Homebase where they can be scanned for Research Credits. The living, breathing ecosystem of Terra II is at your disposal!  
  • LAIKA Rovers: Find and reboot your sleeping canine companions, become best friends, and work together to help The Human with their mission. Complete quests for the Rovers to receive unique rewards and help them remember their past by unlocking their hidden memory tapes. 
  • Unlock Mysteries: Delve deep into the hidden depths of Terra II! Explore sprawling caves and discover ancient temples, as you uncover the history of the planet and its previous inhabitants. Who were they? Where did they go? 
  • Beautiful Biomes: Explore the familiar yet alien planet of Terra II. Utilise your upgrades and creature abilities to adapt to the different biomes, from lush forests to stinky swamps and snowy mountain tops. 
  • Rover Customisation: Upgrade your Rover with new tools and capturing equipment. Maximise your exploring capabilities with motherboard enhancements and abilities. Expand your wardrobe, unlock new cosmetics, and become the most fashionable Rover on Terra II!

Good Boy is coming to PC (Steam).
