    A game like Paper Beast is quite literally a piece of art, one of the best games I've ever played, but has only 36 max concurrent players and "$237k gross revenue" (according to VGInsights). You take out 30% for refunds, VAT, regional pricing, the steam cut, and you are left with about $100k

    I finished up a ~70% complete playthru of #PaperBeast that I started back in 2021! Fantastic, overlooked game from #EricChahi #PixelReefStudios which nails that old Vive-era VR game vibe. If you enjoyed #AnotherWorld back in the day, you owe it to yourself to try this biomimetic sandbox adventure.

    Yes! I finally played through Another World for the first time a few years back. I always wanted to play it as a kid but never got a chance to. I really liked it, but I think Heart of Darkness is still my favorite Chahi game. I still need to play Paper Beast as well.

    Sadly it wasn't recorded, it was at my first Gamescom while I demoed his VR game Paper Beast. I didn't realise he'd be there and talking to be throughout and afterwards, so all my questions were very off the cuff and disorganised, but I do remember him being very considered despite how green I was.

    Booted up the PSVR2 for the first time in like forever, because I realized I had six game and one demo in the “got and never started pile”. Now it’s FIVE games and one demo. Vertigo 2 is pretty neat. (Pile: Rush, Resist, Paper Beast, Cactus Cowboy, Towers and Powers, Of LIes And Rain Demo)

    Paper Beast (PSVR, 2020) The less you know going in and more open you are to experiencing the bizarre, the harder this game is going to hit. It's abstract and artsy, yet clear in its direction. It's just so cool to be immersed into such a strange and wonderful game world through VR, very powerful.

    Possibly melting ice in Paper Beast. That game still baffles me.

    10 #PLAYSTATION 4 / PSVR #VIDEOGAMES TO TRY 10. Paper Beast (2020) Eric Chahi's best-known for the surreal platform adventure Another World/Out of This World, but this more recent VR puzzle adventure is just as visionary and interesting. It's a fairly short, fun game worth experiencing yourself!

    Paper Beast 5/10 Psvr2 This is probably a case of a game just not being for me. It's an interesting puzzle game with some interesting visuals with the world being made from paper. I just didn't click with it, didn't find the puzzles particularly engaging but there's an interesting world here.

    somehow missed (or forgot) that Paper Beast came out 5 years ago. was a VR game, with a nonVR edition later. I understand it's not in the same vein as Another World, but that is still a hell of a pedigree. also it's on sale for less that 2 dollars so uh yeah easy buy for me

    Surprised and happy to see Paper Beast has a PSVR2 version! 😍 A surreal and beautiful game on original PSVR. I didn’t expect to see it get an upgrade. I hope Statik gets some love. It’d be great to be able to play that again, and see new puzzles making use of the new controllers!
