Going for Goal is an adult Ren'Py visual novel by DarkSkello, built with 3D rendered animated scenes. You play a talented footballer whose career, wealth, and fame are still open to shape. The story follows his journey through unexpected difficulties and new hope, while he explores his past, meets new people, and may form romantic or harem-style relationships. Pregnancy can also enter his life. He can take those he leaves behind to start a new life in another country.
The current build is v0.16, released on August 14, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, in English, and is uncensored. The latest update adds 486 renders and six animations. Earlier updates show the project has grown through many releases.
