its a cool fun game, interesting action-positioning take on traditional roguelikes HOWEVER there are bugs that are completely impeding my otherwise enjoyment - Game won't save Work hard to get a campfire, save, exit the game, re-launch it, all your progress is GONE - Keybind updates won't save Try to change the keys, it won't retain the updates Otherwise game is cool, too bad

Incredibly obtuse and counterintuitive control scheme. Does not allow mouse in menus, instead you have to use arrow keys (normal), enter (normal) and backspace (what the ♥♥♥♥?). I had to press every single button on my keyboard because instead of using Esc like any other game, the dev chose Backspace for some reasons??? And it's not even rebindable? The game itself is fine, I guess. Too many menus and informational screen to access while only using keyboard control, making navigation an extreme hassle. All of this can be solved by being able to rebind enter and backspace, and using mouse to navigate menu screens.

Paper Animal Adventure, developed by Cuddling Raccoons Studio and published by Top Hat Studios, Inc., is a roguelike RPG that blends a soft, storybook presentation with systems built around exploration, combat, and gradual progression. At first glance, its paper-crafted aesthetic and cast of anthropomorphic characters suggest a lighthearted journey, but beneath that surface lies a game structured around procedural runs, tactical decision-making, and resource management. It’s an experience that balances charm with challenge, aiming to appeal to both casual players and those looking for something more mechanically engaging. The core gameplay revolves around navigating procedurally generated environments, where each run introduces new layouts, encounters, and opportunities. Players move through interconnected areas, collecting items, battling enemies, and making choices that shape the outcome of their journey. This roguelike structure ensures that no two runs feel exactly the same, encouraging experimentation and adaptation. While the objective remains consistent—progress through the world and uncover more of its story—the path taken is always slightly different, giving the game a st…

A lot of fun, this would be great as a multiplayer couch/online co op game! Really good as an early access and excited to see how it continues. If I were to give feedback, I would say make the bosses harder by giving them some faster moves.

The game is alright, it's certainly not a bad game and the story was actually kinda interesting, but it's wayyyyyyyy too easy, and I get it right, the game is more catered towards kids or casual gamers but if I kill the second boss in about half a minute (Probably sooner if he didn't move) without taking any damage... Yeah thats where I am like.... Not for me, I seek a challenge and albeit the music, graphics and story being charming, if I don't feel challenged or atleast have a sense of things getting harder, it's where my interest drops. Also can devs please stop making every damn game a rogue-like, this game could been so much better in general without that ♥♥♥♥. Anyways I'll keep an eye on this, see what the finished product brings when it drops.

I LOVE this game. I wish it was complete. I got it on fanatical. I just kinda buy things. So I didn't even pay attention to what I was buying. But this game is so good.
