- Paper Ghost Stories: Third Eye Open release date announce! - 9 July 2024
Hi everyone! We're thrilled to announce that Third Eye Open is nearing completing and today we can announce that the game will be launching on 5th September 2024! Check out our release date announcement trailer: Third Eye Open has been in development for over 4 years, since we finished work on the first game, Paper Ghost Stories: 7PM. The game tells the story of Ting, a young girl growing up in sometimes difficult circumstances, who has the extraordinary ability to see the souls of the recently departed. Will they aid her or harm her? What future will YOU decide for her as you navigate her family and friendships? We're using the same papercraft-inspired art style that we used in 7PM to tell Ting's story this time around. It's inspired by our native Southeast Asian culture and every frame of animation and every detail is painstakingly hand-drawn to create make it feel like papercraft com…

- This papercraft ghost story game is beautiful to just walk around in - 6 February 2024
A story about a girl who has a ghost best friend nobody else can see, and has to juggle that relationship with her interactions with living people? Sounds fake . Haha, but seriously folks. There's a demo for Paper Ghost Stories: Third Eye Open in the Steam Next Fest , and boy howdy did I like just looking at this game in motion. The clue is in the name, as all the characters look like 2D paper cut out dolls, and all the environments are like papercraft models. It's pretty gorge. Third Eye Open, out this year, is inspired by the Joss-Papercraft of Southeast Asia (indeed, the start menu is a stage). You play as Ting, a pre-adolescent girl living in Malaysia with her parents. Ting discovers her supernatural ability to see ghosts at a camp, where she meets Xiu, a ghost girl about her own age. The two become friends, and the demo starts in media res when the two are back home. Read more
