White Paper Games was founded by two charming gentleman who made each other’s acquaintance whilst studying for their MA in Games Design at the University of Central Lancashire. Realising that they were both ridiculously passionate about the same ideals within the video game industry they decided to go it alone and brave the daunting task of setting up their own development studio in order to make games that can bring new, innovative community based game play to as many people as possible. White Paper Games believes in innovation, community and honesty. All three of which we want to bring to you through our games and our work ethic. As a studio we are situated in the North West of England near Manchester where we continue to develop games that are born from our passion for art, design and the world around us. We strive to create games that are accessible, fun and beautiful that keep you wanting to play right to the very end.

After a lot of hard work, design and planning we can finally reveal to you the first screenshots showcasing the distinct art style of our game in development, Ether. After many different iterations and experimentations of the art style we are extremely happy with the direction our creative artist, Oliver John Farrell has taken. As a studio we feel it complements the exciting world that we are currently creating and the explorative and puzzle based game play that we are striving to create. We wanted to create something that stood out from the crowd and really drew you into the mysterious world of Ether and the secrets that it contains.

I am not going to say much else apart from this and let the images take up the major part of this post, all I can say is that as O.J. continues with the art for Ether he will be keeping a distinct blog showcasing his work which we will reveal as soon as it is ready as well as post updates as and when we can.
