    Paper Monsters is a 2.5d sidescroller / platformer .
    Almost everything in the game is made out of paper. The levels and characters even looks as if it could actually be made using mostly origami (and maybe a cotton ball or two).
    It has a vey "Papercraft" feel to it.

    Even thought it is a sidescroller, the characters and bad guys are are fully animated 3d models.
    So far you will be able to play as the main little box dude with power ups like the fire breathing paper dragon in the gameplay screen below.



    Features

    - Classic 2d sidescrolling gameplay with Incredibly immersive 3d environments.
    - Large Levels with checkpoints and hidden goodies
    - Powerups including fire breathing dragons, flying bug suits and more!
    - Game Center enabled for leaderboards and achievements
    - iCloud
    - Universal for iPhone, iPod, and iPad
    - Full high res Retinaâ„¢ support
    -iCade and iControlPad both supported (UPDATE: now fully tested and will be added shortly after launch)

    UPDATE Jan 2012​

    *Paper Monsters had been submitted.
    *Just for fun we added a PLAYABLE web mini game on PaperMonsterLand.com

    Update 6/14 - baddies - What's a platformer without a snow zone?
    This little guy is from one of the snow levels. He uses his spear to jab at you so, you have to be careful when you can jump on him.
    And you can pretty much count on a giant-abominable-snow-beast-yeti-boss battle!

    I suppose, changing all the characters from 2d sprites to 3D models could possibly be construed as different.

    The art might have changed a tiny bit too lol

    Thanks!

    Hopefully we will have something for you to look at fairly soon. The first world in the screen shot is getting pretty close.

    Thanks, I suppose thats a good question since we were originally gonna use some of the characters. :)

    However, Paper Monsters is an entirely new game from the ground up.
    Doodle Monster is just a simple endless high score game.

    This is a full featured platformer with worlds, levels, bosses, unlockables, etc.
