That describes some extra additions to the game, also:
Will I get Steam?!
Yes! If you purchased a copy of World of Goo 2 from us, check your download link! There should be a Steam Key lovingly attached especially for you.
No way, they actually gave me a free Steam key for buying the DRM free version!? And here I was debating with my wallet whether the convenience of Steam was worth buying the game again....
After reading some of the reviews, it would appear that you can’t play it offline on steam, you have to be logged in, which is dumb considering there’s a DRM free version that works without an internet connection
The “convenience” feels like a downgrade.
The complementary steam key is cool though.
Apparently that's a bug according to the dev, so hopefully it gets fixed. Probably a problem with how they implemented the Steam API stuff.

definitely worth picking up if you're fine with whatever the price is (i assume it's pretty cheap). it's a great game for people like me who need to do something mouse-only while they smoke a joint. many hours of "aww what the hell" but in a good way.
edit - "what the golf?" is another one like that
One Finger Death Punch is another great mouse game. It uses only two buttons, which can be the ones on your mouse, to play.
On my SteamDeck I mapped the controls so I just have to touch the two touchpads.
it's a buck twenty-five canadian on steam. you sold me.
Was waiting for a GoG release!
I'm pretty sure I saw it on Gog.
