We just finished getting Paperbound ready for submission to IndieCade. A whole bunch of work went into this one, the fruits of which you can see in the video below. Here are some of the highlights:
*Created a character selection screen with little mini-arenas
*Added a new character: The Scarab
*Added a gameplay feature where you have to exit the level through a tear in the page in order to win
*New theme music
*Two more levels received art treatments
*Much improved sound effects
*Added color variations for existing characters

We're quite happy with the “exit through the page tear” feature. Once you hit the score limit, a tear opens in the page, and you have to exit through it. Others can stop you, causing the portal to close. We think it adds a nice tension and works well with one of Paperbound’s defining aspects–-the movement.
On the audio front, the sound effects have been improved massively, and Chris, our composer, created a new revision of the theme music that sounds more 1800s-y. It sounds great!
We'd love to know what you think of the most recent changes, so we'd really appreciate you checking out the video and giving us some feedback in the comments. We'd also appreciate your vote on Greenlight. You can follow Paperbound on Facebook and Twitter.
Now enjoy some images from the “Dante’s Inferno” and “Skull Kingdom” books!
