Origament: A Paper Adventure Takes Flight This June on PC & Consoles
The indie studio Space Sauce is riding a wave of excitement. They recently debuted an enchanting new gameplay trailer for their upcoming indie platformer, Origament: A Paper Adventure. Alongside the reveal, they announced that a free demo will be available through a public playtest beginning June 17, 2025, exclusively on Steam.
This family-friendly 3D adventure game puts players in the role of a living letter, lost in a world built entirely out of folded paper. The main character can morph into a variety of origami shapes, each offering unique movement abilities. For instance, you can glide across Venetian rooftops as a paper plane, sail quietly down rivers as a boat, or dash through dense forests in the form of a shuriken.
Origament emphasizes exploration, imagination, and environmental puzzle-solving. Players are encouraged to discover hidden paths, interact with gentle spirits, and adapt to constantly shifting terrain. While the Steam playtest gives an early glimpse into the game’s world, a full release is also planned for consoles, expanding access to a wider player base.
With its soothing atmosphere, inventive mechanics, and standout visual style, Origament: A Paper Adventure is already shaping up to be one of the most captivating indie releases of the year.
