“Paper Beast is a very immersive adventure game that has been designed for VR. You explore a believable and surrealistic natural world. You will be like in an awakened dream. Imagine a cocktail, with a bit of Dali, Lynch, and BBC Planet Earth. Shake it! You got a kind of crazy universe to explore!”, says Eric Chahi, founder of Pixel Reef. “In VR you can feel it, for me it is really what VR can bring to players. The craziness of this adventure is more than a journey, more than a game, it becomes a piece of life, full of meaning”.

The PC version of the game will see a host of new features including continuous move support, upgraded visuals, gameplay tweaks, and an expanded sandbox mode.

Thank you, Games for Change for having us as a finalist this year at the Games for Change Virtual Festival!
