Tearaway is Media Molecule's (developers of Little Big Planet 1 and 2) next game, exclusive to the Playstation Vita. It places you, the player, in control of the paper-crafted world of avatars Iota (Male) or Atoi (Female) in their mission to deliver a special message to you. It's a linear platformer with occasional puzzles that clocks in at around 6-8 hours depending on how fast you go. Throughout, you'll encounter both enemies to combat and friendly NPC's who will make requests of your god like powers.
Tearaway release this [B]Friday, November 22 in the US/UK[/B], and [B]available now in AUS[/B].

Tearaway makes extensive use of all the features of the Playstation Vita system. Some examples include...
-Using the rear touch pad your fingers will tear into the world of tearaway so you can manipulate objects to solve puzzles, defeat enemies, or to help in platforming.
-Using the front touch screen you can fold/unfold/cut the world to both manipulate the world and customize it through crafting (I.E Create a paper crown for the squirrel king).
-The rear camera is used to take photos that can be used as textures in-game.
-The front camera will display your face on the sun, since you are looking down onto the world.
-The microphone is used to manipulate the world through various means (I.E Blow into the mic to create a gust of wind or create a sound byte to be used as an NPC's voice).

[quote]The level of unique detail in the world is staggering. Every moment spent immersed in it is heartwarming. Fittingly, it feels positively handcrafted.[/url]

[quote]It's the way the game involves you at every turn — the way the world moves when you touch it. I never felt like I was beating Tearaway as much as collaborating with it. From cover to cover, Tearway is an engrossing, spellbinding experience.[/quote]

[quote]Tearaway follows in the footsteps of Gravity Rush as an example of why you should own a Vita. While it isn’t always perfect as a game, it’s an amazing experience, providing an exciting and emotional journey through a world of beauty and personality.[/quote]

[quote]Tearaway is a joy. Whether it was a riding a pig towards the sunset or playing basketball with a super-powered accordion, it never failed to make me smile. It sincerely believes that imagination really is the most important faculty, and in turn, succeeded in transporting me back to a time when I built strange worlds equipped with nothing but crayons and card. It does this by using every aspect of the Vita, crafting an experience that I can’t imagine being realised elsewhere. It might be short, but it’s very special. Please come back soon, Iota.[/quote]

[quote]Every form of interaction is executed with skill and expert pacing, and never does one element outstay its welcome or feel as though it takes away from the onscreen action. The mere fact that the controls feel normal is evidence enough that, when done right, each and every one of the Vita's features can be used in tandem and as a means to elevate gameplay.[/quote]

[quote]It's not a long game, but for every section of simple platforming there's a moment of pure creative delight that leaves most other games looking stuffy and sterile, locked away behind their joypads and glass, away from your prodding, inquisitive fingers. Tearaway's tactile world may be no more real, but while you're under its spell it certainly doesn't feel that way.[/quote]

There, I'm done, now us 5 vita owners have a thread to talk about it.
One of the rare games that really make me want a Vita
Didn't this game let you print your trophies? It's a nice and unique feature.
Time to buy a PS Vita now.
I was already getting a vita and oh my god this game is so cute it made my beard fall off.

As far as I know, you'll be able to print out and construct a good majority of the game.
I'm not sure the details, but Media Molecule made it a point that everything you see in game would have to be able to be crafted in real life.
I'm so pumped for this game. LittleBigPlanet 1 & 2 were two of the best games I've ever played and I'm sure I'll have fun with this one.
There is a demo out for NA : [url]https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/tearaway-demo/cid=UP9000-PCSA00144_00-TEARAWAYDEMO0000[/url]
Not sure if there is one for EU or not.

I managed to make Iota look like a moron. Only played for like an hour, but I'm enjoying it so far. I've unlocked quite a few paper crafts, but I'm not sure if I'm going to attempt crafting any of them.
EDIT:
More pictures; these were taken using the Vita's Screenshot function and not the camera function in game.

Oh wow I've thought about a similar concept for a game.
Like all the models are low poly on purpose so you can print them out and turn them into 3D paper models outside of the game.
I got a Vita yesterday, once I finish off the backlog of games I have I might get it.
