Eric Chahi, founder of developer Pixel Reef, likes ?building immersive worlds with a poetic touch.? They?re often abstract worlds full of mystery and with rules unlike any you?ve seen before. You?ll likely have already seen these worlds in games like Another World, Heart of Darkness, or From Dust. Now his team has unleashed another world in the form of PlayStation VR title Paper Beast. It?s certainly a world worth visiting.
This isn?t the first impression you get, though. As the game?s Quasar Computer loads a simulation of a massive star?s collapse, you must play the SwirlyBeat music app while you wait. An upbeat tune plays in the background, mysterious shapes (which you can move and throw around) vibrating to its beat. Psychedelic colors and patterns surround you. Paper streamers and confetti fall from the sky. You wonder what the point of this is, but then the simulation breaks and you?re plunged into darkness.
