Now Steam Deck Verified / SteamOS Compatible! PaperKlay is a gorgeous 3D platformer collect-a-thon with a world made of paper, cardboard and clay.

There's so many great games releasing that I miss quite a lot of them. But, sifting through Steam Deck announcements helps me surface some real gems like this. It features a catchy soundtrack with tracks from composers Grant Kirkhope (Banjo-Kazooie, Yooka-Laylee) and Steven Melin (Dark Dice, Moonlighter) along with a surprising voice cast. Some of the voices you might recognise from the likes of Sly Cooper, Five Nights at Freddy's, Attack on Titan & more.

After the May 27th release, the developer WhyKev put out a bunch of patches and thanks to all the work it has been rated Verified by Valve as of July 8th.
