About

PAPERHEAD is a fast-paced FPS game set in a world where everything is made out of cardboard and paper but is infested with horror!
Use a pencil as a weapon and explore what exactly went wrong in the secret research facility and why suddenly papercut people were able to...bleed.
Paperhead's Main Features

- Cardboard cute style with a horror twist. Cute but horrifying!

- Brutal and fast-paced combat. Slide to throw enemies in the air, kick explosive barrels into them (or enemies themselves!), and jump onto them Mario-style.

- Use a Pencil as a weapon. Draw a bomb to explode enemies!

- Use a Pencil as a reality-warping puzzle-solving tool. Not sure how to get through? Try to draw a door on the wall!

WHY WOULD PAPER...BLEED?
