papertitans.com twitter.com/papertitans facebook.com/papertitans pinterest.com/papertitans Hello there! My name is Chris, part of Team Lumo, a dev team based in Leamington Spa, UK. I'd like to introduce you to Paper Titans, our new iOS game due for release at the end of April. Paper Titans is a papercraft inspired fold-'em-up featuring the Titans, quirky characters who each have their own special and unique abilities. The player literally makes new friends by folding paper, and can then use those new characters and their powers in-game to solve puzzles and collect stars. So far four of the Titans have been unveiled; the Collector (who is obsessed with stars for some reason), the Thrower (part accordion, part harlequin, part crazy), the Exploder (does exactly what it says on the tin) and the Flyer (daredevil stuntman + jet pack). You'll find us in all the usual places (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest) as well as over at the Paper Titans blog, where we've been posting daily for the last week or so. I really hope that you like what you've seen of Paper Titans far, and the rest of Team Lumo and I can't wait to share more with you guys over the coming weeks. If you've got any questions, please fire away and I'll do my very best to answer them! Look forward to seeing you around! Chris Team Lumo
Thank you very much, it's great to hear you like the style! It's something we've worked very hard indeed on getting right
We're releasing a new trailer with each Titan reveal (keep your eyes peeled later today for the next...) and each shows a little more of the mechanics and gameplay. Once all the Titans have been unveiled we'll also be releasing a full trailer, which will of course be posted here too!
As you'll no doubt have gathered by now, Paper Titans has been heavily influenced by papercraft, and in particular the look and feel of paper toys. The game features a unique fold-and-play mechanic, where the player will bring new characters to life by folding them from a paper net (which you can see in our trailer videos). We've also created some physical paper nets so you can create your very own Titans, and a new paper net will be available each week 'til launch. Happy folding!

New character - The Exploder! papertitans.com Introducing the Exploder, the third Paper Titan to be revealed! Despite the hypnotic eyes, inane grin and more-than-passing resemblance to a firework, the Exploder is actually the most laid back Titan in the group. Okay, so thats not strictly the case, but sometimes its best to play these things down The truth is, the Exploder is a little wired. Well, a lot wired actually, but its all under control now, mostly. That works out rather well for the other Titans because the Exploder is rather adept at getting rid of those nasty obstacles that block their path, just so long as they keep a safe distance! Despite their volatility, Exploders are pretty robust and can be safely thrown about without fear of detonation. Just make sure you deploy them wisely, because once theyre gone, theyre gone. At least until the next level!
Damn. We've had a couple of paper-style games on iOS, but nothing this pretty. The colour palette and that bloom effect are beautiful.
Thanks MidianGTX, you've hit the nail on the head there -we don't think there's anything quite like Paper Titans out there! Our main aim with the art style has been to make the game stand out from the crowd with a beautiful, eye-catching aesthetic and style. We're really chuffed with the result, and it's great to hear you like it too.
Very impressive... I hope it plays well. And since we are on the subject of papercraft which was an enjoyable part of my childhood (and college, LOL) life... http://th05.deviantart.net/fs50/PRE/i/2009/268/8/1/FM3_Papercraft_2_by_Exact_Psience.jpg
