A wholesome little game! It was fun and challenging to platform with a large group of joined friends.
Well done!

A little lacking on the technical side of things, but otherwise the game is really charming! Love the music! While the movement is pretty clunky, there were times when the weird way the figures move made for some interesting platforming. Instead of the traditional platform game thinking of holding directional buttons for specific amount of time, I was forced to think in "steps". Some jumps would require different amounts of these "steps" depending on how many buddies you had with you. The movement might be unpolished, but I see some interesting ideas in this kind of way of moving.
Controls in this game really feel unconformable to play. I've glitched out of play area multiple times while playing this game. I don't know if this is an intentional glitch or unintentional because there's a button to let of a party to prevent glitching out of map or for something else?
This kind of movement would work with something else instead of small cell platformer game.
Even so, I like how this game interpret the theme even if it makes the game really unpleasant to play.
Personified paper products possessing peculiar powers is an adorable idea. The art was cute too!
I wish I could have seen more of the game, but once I collected 5 or so paper pals, platforming became particularly perilous because of the oscillating hitbox. Maybe if they were all in a chain, but following the exact movements of the leader instead of extending the shape? Just an idea, of course.
Anywho, great job getting this game finished! And again, I love the visuals <3
I love the idea for it! It was fun going around and collecting all the little pieces of paper and seeing the little dialogue that comes with them. The art was really good, though the animation made me a bit dizzy at times. There were quite a few bugs, with me having to reset a few times due to them, but I otherwise liked it a lot!
Great game, I liked that different fellas open new zones, art and audio were also awesome.
Loved the atmosphere and audio on this one, and feels like a great concept to allow the different friends to unlock different areas. Ran into a few bugs but the idea came through and was a great fit for the theme.
Cool concept, interesting game play! I enjoyed the art and music - nice work!
Super cool! I love the art and the music. It is hard sometimes to differentiate between something that's part of the background and something that you collide with like a platform, and I did encounter a few softlocks :/ But I really enjoyed it! Very charming.
