Walking With House House: The Making of Big Walk and Its Cozy Proximity Play

House House’s Big Walk evolved from a pandemic prototype into a local-proximity co-op that rewards staying together and communicating, featuring evolving puzzles, rich sound design, and accessibility considerations. In a lengthy interview, developers Stuart Gillespie-Cook, Jake Strasser, and Nico Disseldorp discuss design decisions, how collaboration with sound teams and friends shaped the game, and the emotional catharsis of its endings, all rooted in the joy of making games with friends.

Big Walk hides a Predator-style stealth game, pending a voice patch

Rock Paper Shotgun argues that Big Walk isn’t a casual open-world hangout game but a stealth multiplayer where proximity voice chat (instead of built-in comms) governs play, turning players into unpredictable threats; developers are patching the proximity audio to fix volume issues, with players signaling via walkie-talkies, flareguns, or a whiteboard to communicate across distances.

Cooperative Chaos Turns Big Walk Into a Joyful Puzzle Party

Big Walk, a multiplayer-only title from House House, tasks 2–12 players with navigating a bright, open world to solve group puzzles and collect beans that unlock new features. The game Reward hinges on teamwork and communication, often producing hilarious missteps (lost walkie-talkies, wrong directions) that are endured and celebrated together rather than solo cleverness. Its design intentionally forces cooperation, making the experience feel like a vast, shared adventure where you’re small in a big world—fun despite, or because of, the chaos. The need to play with friends can be a barrier, but when a group does sync up, it’s a uniquely joyous co-op challenge.

Panic bets on co-op whimsy with Big Walk and a lean publishing plan

Panic, the indie publisher behind Untitled Goose Game, is leaning into whimsical, unconventional projects rather than sequels. Its new Big Walk is a 12-player co-op adventure built around proximity voice chat and collaborative puzzle-solving, emphasizing togetherness over difficulty. The team aims to reach non-traditional gamers and broaden its publishing catalog, while acknowledging a small staff — three people on the dedicated games team — and a plan to scale back releases. Big Walk is slated for PC and PS5 later this year.
