Paper Monsters - (Epic 2.5d Platformer!) by Crescent Moon Games

[robotsvswizards.com]

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.

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
