Had some ups and downs with the audio and not sure about the auto-close at the end with the web page, but overall was not a bad experience. Keep up making games!
Cool!
Nice game
Good-looking halloween themed game!
The whole time I played that game, I was like "WTF is going on here". Really a crazy experience.
hey i played this game back in january. It had a huge affect on me, The way things changed scared me in a way that was deep.
Hey there, Your game looks astounding and i was curious how open to a Quest port you may be, You you can easily set up a SideQuest listing and link to the Itch listing for easy install user installation and still have them purchase it though SideQuest listings, Listing on SideQuest is also completely free and you may be able to benefit from more views and downloads on us as we do ahev a fairly large user base. If you are interested there is more information on us here: https://github.com/the-expanse/SideQuest/wiki/How-To-Submit-Games
And for an example of a listing currently on us using Itch integration: https://sidequestvr.com/#/app/358
This game is good...
The knocking got me a few times. I liked the art style, very unique.
wow this game is GOOOOD
This comment has spoilers, So, if you haven't played this yet, go do that first.
OH MAN! This was incredible! That uneasy feeling I got when the TV said "You shouldn't play games you found on the internet, it could be dangerous" That line was SUPER effective! It was like "Oh man, I did do that, didn't I? What have I gotten myself into?" Even more so for me because I didn't get my copy off of Steam. This was the first game I tried after learning about itch.io and their free VR experiences. At first, itch.io just seemed a little sketchy when compared to Steam (I know now, itch.io is fine, but at that moment with this being the first thing I tried and THAT line.... I really began to question my life choices.)
I kept bracing for a jump-scare. I'm kind of glad going in that I didn't know that there were no jump-scares. Because when you're bracing continuously for a jump-scare but instead things just keep getting more bizarre and tense. It just keeps intensifying and building the fear. That's a WAY more effective and enjoyable scare than jump-scares, any day.
I love VR horror. It's my favorite genre. So, I've played many different VR horror experiences. This is definitely in my top 5! That's quite an achievement for being a free experience, under 20 min long!
You guys are going places! Can't wait to see more from you!

how mentally disturbing can a game be?!!!
The game was partially very loud...was disturbing and interesting at the same time.

I gave it a go with my Valve Index, complaints and walkthrough found here, thanks! Hope it gets good polish and a higher framerate, higher resolution, etc for Steam
Hello everyone! In the next days we will upload a new version of The Paperman with some changes:
- Bug Fixes
- Better performance
- PC Version (Mouse, Keyboard, Controller...)
And more changes, stay tuned!
Just noticed this. Great to hear! I see you used my review on the steam page, made my lol when I saw it.
Will the steam version be any different?
Hi! Would love to play, but I seem to be missing my hands (ie I don't have any video camera or anything). Any ideas what the problem could be? I'm on a Rift S
Hello! Currently the game isn't fully adapted to Oculus Rift devices so is expected that you can't play. You'll have to wait until we finish a proper port. Sorry for the trouble.
This game does look amazing keep up the good work and if you ever need a student to help im always available 24/7 but have only 2d point and click game building skills and i know no programming language but am very willing and i'd like to think intelligent enough to learn quite fast
W T F. So you guys are basically genius.
Hands down on one of the best (if not the best) VR games I've ever played. This is some serious freaking mind-blowing experience. Keep going guys!
And for you reading this:

Thank you so much! We're so glad you enjoyed it, you can follow us on twitter, if we announce something it will be there, we have exciting news for the future :)
Downloads are available again!
The game will be live in a moments! Thanks!
Seems to be something wrong with the files. I tried launching the game, but it keeps bringing up
There should be 'paperman_Data'
folder next to the executable.
I tried flipping around the files, but no luck.
Try to download again the game and check the folders. It should be fixed! If the problem keeps please contact with us, thanks!
We find a bug and we're working on it. In the next hour The Paperman will be live again!
Try creating a folder, then move the exe, the "mono" folder and player.dll to it. Then take the data folder (or everything else and put it together with the 3 files I mentioned earlier.
Note: I have not downloaded this game yet. But the mistake you mentioned happened to other games. So that was the way I found it and it worked.
Very cool!
