This add-on turns the chaotic world of Goat Simulator into a festive-themed treasure hunt. The core idea is to find tiny Santas scattered across the map. These aren’t just collectibles; each one grants a unique, zany effect, building up to a final confrontation with Big Santa.
The Tiny Santas
There would be a set number of tiny Santas (let’s say 12, to fit the “12 days of Christmas” theme). They’re small, maybe the size of a teacup, and are hidden in all the nooks and crannies of the map—on rooftops, under cars, in bushes, or even on top of a rollercoaster.
When you find and “collect” a tiny Santa (by licking it or headbutting it), a festive sound effect plays, and you get a temporary or permanent power-up. Here are some ideas for what each tiny Santa could do:
Santa’s Sleigh Bell: Gives you a jingle-bell sound effect whenever you walk or run.
Rudolph’s Glowing Nose: Your goat’s nose starts to glow a bright red. This could also function as a light source in dark areas.
A Bag of Lumps of Coal: Your goat can now drop lumps of coal from its mouth that explode into a puff of smoke, knocking nearby NPCs backward.
Santa’s Cookies: Grants a super-speed boost for a short time.
Elf Workshop Overalls: Permanently turns your goat’s fur green and its horns red.
Candy Cane Lick: Your tongue turns into a candy cane, making it sticky and able to latch onto objects and NPCs more easily.
The Grand Prize: Big Santa
Once all 12 tiny Santas are collected, a special event is triggered. A huge, jolly Big Santa appears somewhere on the map, maybe on top of the tallest building or in the middle of a previously empty field. He’s much larger than any other NPC in the game and is surrounded by a festive aura.
To get the “best thing,” you have to interact with Big Santa. This could be as simple as headbutting him or as difficult as having to lead a chain of NPCs to him.
Upon successful interaction, Big Santa gives you the ultimate prize: a brand-new, over-the-top ability. This ability would be permanent and game-changing. It could be something like:
The Gift-Wrapped Rocket Pack: A permanent jetpack that looks like a giant, wrapped present. It lets you fly infinitely.
Reindeer Summoner: Gives you the ability to summon a single reindeer companion that you can ride. It could fly and have a special attack like a “hoof kick.”
The Christmas Cheer Cannon: Your goat gains the ability to shoot exploding presents from its mouth. The presents don’t do damage but launch people and objects high into the air with a shower of confetti.
This expansion would offer a great incentive for exploration and reward players with fun, unique powers that change how they play the game.
