“The world of Ether One is a superbly detailed and well thought-out place.”
4/5 – Joystiq
“Ether One might well represent the apex of its particular subgenre. It engages the player at every level they might want to engage it, and rewards them handsomely for plunging into its depths.”
4.5/5 – Hardcore Gamer
"When Ether One has you stumped, you’re missing the obvious. For an adventure puzzle game that’s the Holy Grail."
82/100 - PC Gamer
"Ether One made me feel something very real in a time of immense difficulty in my life. For that, I thank it."
- Kotaku
"It's very Dickensian"
- Killscreen
"Those who don’t bother will miss a significant portion of the experience. Thus, even though the developers let you choose either one, I only recommend Ether One!"
4.5/5 - Game Revolution
"Ether One is an exceptional example of what can be done with simple game design. It has a quality not commonly seen in smaller indie titles, and the courage to do things a little differently."
8/10 - Games TM
"BioShock may have laid the groundwork for experimental adventures such as this, but Ether One has raised the bar for the genre, and for VR experiences within."
5/5 - VR Focus
"There are games that are so powerfully crafted, that the emotional response –by the time the game ends– is overwhelming. Then, all you can do is ponder everything that happened. You just sit there. You’re sad. Upset. Satisfied."
9/10 - GameLuster
"Don’t be surprised if you find yourself writing emails to people you’ve lost touch with afterward. This is one of those stories that makes you care all the more about the things you have in the real world."
- The Mary Sue

Oliver John Farrell

Environment Artist

Oliver (aka O.J.) achieved a first class honours degree in BA Games Design at the University of Central Lancashire and is currently studying to achieve his MA in Games Design at the same institution.
Oliver has deep passion for environment art and struggles to play games without inspecting every little detail in the game worlds. Still eager to learn as much as he can Oliver is striving to be a great environment artist within the gaming sector whilst also painting portraits in his spare time and watching football (or soccer for our American fans out there).

He joined White Paper Games in 2012 and is now proudly the environment artist for White Paper Games launch title Ether.
