Pixel Reef have announced the release date Eric Chahi’s (Another World, Heart of Darkness, From Dust) Paper Beast heads to Windows PC via Steam.
As stated in the press release (via Games Press), players explore a new land of strange creatures made of paper. Save prey from predators, shape the environment and weather, protect the creatures from digital storms- all powered under a “unique extensive physics engine” that calculates the outcome in real time.
Players have access to an adventure mode (“to explore a dreamlike world”), and a sandbox mode that “approximates a god game experience, where experimentation and ecosystem play a major role.”
The Windows PC version will add new features, including continuous move support, improved graphics, unspecified gameplay tweaks, expanding the sandbox mode; along with more animals, plants, and items.
You can find the full rundown (via Steam) below.
An adventure and exploration game about wildlife in a dreamlike universe.
