[hr][/hr] [h2] 📄 A Tale of Paper: Refolded 📄[/h2] [i]flash review[/i] [hr][/hr] A Tale of Paper: Refolded is side-scroller and 3D puzzle-platformer made by Open House Games and published by Digerati. Playing as a Line, a magical paper creature that can shape his form into origamis, embracing into a journey to fullfill his creator final wish. Will you be able to overcome it? [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909431" rel="noopener noreferrer]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909431[/url] [hr][/hr] [table] [tr] [th]🟩Positive aspects ⇁ [/th] [/tr] [/table] One of the most important aspects to take in consideration while I play a short game (1-6 hours of length), is how polished and clear the concept of the art and graphics is. Not like saying the rest is meaningless at all, but when you have a very narrow route you need to have the shell well designed, if not it will crumble apart. Luckily, this one reached the expectations, and it was a good enjoyement for the eyes as the same way it didn't feel off. ➢ [i]Good environmental 3D art[/i]. The modeling is decently good as well as balanced in terms of details. I admit some areas need a brush of detail that could improve the overal aspect, whatever because the shape feels flat or because it's maybe too simple, or the quality isn't that good. Fortunately those are just small fragments of the overall view. What I enjoyed the most what the atmospheric and background designs. ➢ [i]Delightful soundtrack[/i]. To dazzle your ears a great songs to captivate anyone that match the variety of areas of the map. Most of them are background melodies, with small sound effects, that fits perfectly with the concept of the game. ➢ [i]Decent puzzles and platforms[/i]. Not gonna say it's a groundbreaking in this genre, but they are fun, not hard but with some small twist, I would say kinda classic puzzles but justified for the length and target the game is focused. Without a doubt, the origami transformation is the best mechanic so far. [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909456" rel="noopener noreferrer]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909456[/url] [hr][/hr] [table] [tr] [th]🟥Negative aspects ⇁ [/th] [/tr] [/table] I liked the game, but it's hard not do comparison with others in the same genre, but I felt like a Little Nightmare rip off. Not a exact copy, of course, but the whole concept it's heavily based on it. I still enjoyed it, but due to some issues here and there, some QoL that could be better, and the puzzles were kinda generic, it's hard to say this is a masterpiece. ➢ [i]Janky mechanics[/i]. Even if I didn't dislike the mechancis, and didn't face too much issues, sometimes they were a bit off and they messed up when I was trying to finish some areas. Not horrible, and the game is way better to be played with a controller rather then K&M. ➢ [i]Boss spike difficulty[/i]. The last boss became way harder, and even if I didn't had too many issues with it (probably because I'm used to play harder games with bosses), I know for casual players that it's mostly the target of this game, they will face a bad experience, and maybe would be frustrating. [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909471" rel="noopener noreferrer]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3603909471[/url] [hr][/hr] [table] [tr] [th]🏆Achievement hunting ⇁ [/th] [/tr] [/table] Not hard, since it's a very short game it won't be an issue to complete. Even if you miss an achievement it won't be a problem since you can finish the game in 60-90 minutes, and more you repeat faster you will go. The biggest problem would be kill the last boss without die, but I still doable. Unfortunately, there is not a decent guide available in the moment I'm writting these, but you have walkthroughts on YT with everything you might need. [hr][/hr] [table] [tr] [th]▫ ◨ ▪ FINAL THOUGHTS ▪ ◧ ▫ [/th] [/tr] [/table] I liked the game, it was few hours of enjoyement, but It's not something that would standout heavily on the puzzle-platform genre. I think any fan of Little Nightmare would be more up towards try these game, because 3D side-scrollers one of this kind are not as common, and it's cheap to get, or a big fan of the genre itself trying to dig more into new games, but for a casual player or someone who is looking for something [i]better[/i], or [i]greater[/i], yeah this game isn't good enough to supply that demand. But in any case, I still recommend it if you get it for cheap and if you like the genre, I don't think it's that bad to not give it a try.

I was going to leave a positive review until I got to the Boss fight at the end of Unfolded Melody. After the huge difficulty spike and the fact that it's in such cramped quarters, after the 10th or 11th death, I had enough. Not even close to fun, and it just brought to the surface a lot of the problems with this game. First of all, it's incredibly slow loading, and unresponsive at the menu and settings. Second of all, the checkpoint system is broken, so that if you don't finish the entire level, it shoots you all the way back to the beginning! Third of all, the camera position is horrible. Cheap deaths are often due to not being able to pan the camera in a true 3D manner, even though your character can move in 3 dimensions. I can sympathize with the theme of this game, and the artstyle and music are beautiful. And I don't mind the short length of this game But the janky gameplay mechanics and that horrible boss fight at the end forces me to not recommend this game to anyone, unless they truly know what they're getting into. Or the devs re-work the boss fight so it's not so tedious and hard!
Good gameplay and story! Felt like Little Nightmares
First, 3d platforming where the 3rd dimension matters and you can't control the camera. That should be a game dev sin. Second, boss achievement that forces you to restart not just the fight but the entire freaking level to try to get it, that should also be a sin. Third, it appears that instead of fixing an achievement (related to the spider chase apparently), they removed it? Dumb.
Это не игра. Это демка, которая продается как игра. Не смотрите на моё время игры - я поставил на паузу и отошел от компьютера часов на шесть. Игра проходится за часа полтора-два, если ни на что не отвлекаться. Сама игра безыдейная и вторичная. Отсутствует хоть какой-либо внятный нарратив. Непонятно что и для чего мы делаем. Разрабы сделали ход гения - они некоторое объяснение происходящего запихнули в ачивки. Я просто похлопаю. Казалось бы, в таком маленьком проекте не должно быть багов, но нет, они есть. Как студенческий проект - нормально, но как полноценная игра - нет. Красная цена по скидке - 50 рублей. Самое интересное в этой игре - в титрах узнать, что у их программиста украли велосипед. Награда "Бест сторителлинг"? Это всё, что нужно знать о подобных наградах.
2 saatlik oyuna 20 dolar verecek olan sal*ktır. Yerel fiyatlandırmayı kaldırmışlar. Oyun çok kısa ve oynanışı b*k gibi... Little nightmares gibi bi macera oyunu ama en azından onun atmosferi ve hikayesi iyi. Bu kadar kısa ve az mekanikli bi oyuna 20 dolar fiyatı hangi m*l biçtiyse zaten... 2/10
I don't think I'd recommend this game. Most of it is fun, with clever puzzles, good visuals and a nice soundscape. I enjoyed most of my time and the whimsy of playing around in different shapes. But it's not a casual game, despite appearances. The cons suck the joy from the positives, which is compounded by the ridiculous boss battle in Melody. Sections where you die over and over again because of the poor depth perception and unhelpful camera angles. Bugs that force you to restart the level _all the way at the beginning_. Barely being able to see dark levels, even with the Steam Deck's brightness turned up (no in-game brightness settings). I admit I expected a more casual game. But even so, the difficulty is super inconsistent between levels, with some parts having such narrow margins that it takes many, many frustrated tries.
i really liked this game, it had the cutest ending ever there were a few parts i didn't like, but i'm so glad to have played this i can't stop thinking about it for days after finishing the game
