Goo Deer 2.0 brings four-player online co-op to the horror gas station management game

The free update also adds a shoplifter, a rebuilt leaderboard and full translations into 24 new languages. Goo Deer is 34% off on Steam until November 14.

31 October 2026: VML Studios has released Goo Deer 2.0, a free update to its first-person horror management game on Steam. Up to four players can now run the gas station together online, sharing one store and one wallet, and head into the fog-bound forest as a crew.

Goo Deer is set in a foggy town addicted to one strange drink. Players stock the shelves, set prices, serve customers and work the register, then leave the station to hunt deer in a misty forest for the drink's ingredients, while something stalks the fog.

New in 2.0:

  • Online co-op for up to four players, with Steam invites, a server browser, password-protected games, crew chat, and shared items and ammo
  • Reviving fallen teammates, ten co-op achievements and a co-op leaderboard
  • A shoplifter who comes in to steal, and a security guard you can hire to stop them
  • Store tools: shelf labels, stock limits for the basement machines, and furniture that moves with its stock
  • A rebuilt leaderboard with friends and co-op views
  • Full translations into 24 new languages, for 25 in total
  • A gentler start, automatic graphics settings, performance improvements and hundreds of fixes

Goo Deer is out now on Steam for Windows PC at $9.99, and is 34% off ($6.59) until November 14. Read the full 2.0 patch notes.

About the game

Goo Deer is a dark first-person gas station management game set in a foggy world addicted to one strange drink. Keep the shelves stocked, serve the customers, grow the business, and survive what waits beyond the pumps.

Work the shift together

Run the station with up to three friends in online co-op. Share one store and one wallet, split the stocking, pricing and register work, hunt the forest as a pack, and get your teammates back on their feet before the fog takes them. Host a public or password-protected game, or join a friend's straight from a Steam invite.

Run the night shift

Craft and sell different Goo Deer flavors, manage inventory, serve the growing line of customers, and hire employees to keep the station moving. Keep an eye on the door: not every customer plans to pay.

Keep the Goo Deer flowing

Balance resources, staff, and production as demand rises. Expand the station without letting an empty shelf or a bad decision bring the shift to a halt.

Enter the fog

The ingredients are outside. Leave the safety of the station, hunt deer in the misty forest, and avoid the dangerous creature moving through the fog.
