Paperbound

'We're gonna make this an office staple." -Gamespot"It’s a gorgeous and fast-paced game" - Rock, Paper, ShotgunPaperbound is a smash-up brawler from the mind of a former Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare developer that combines platforming, twitchy combat, and gravity redirection in a competitive couch multiplayer setting. Between one and four players run with scissors, walk on walls, and lob ink bombs in whimsical-yet-intense battles within the pages of old books. In addition to the 360 degrees of gravitational freedom, several other twists add to the tension and drama of a match, such as the "escape through the page tear" victory mechanic which brings a second phase to the combat and causes players to momentarily team up with their adversaries.Play as one of Paperbound's 11 original characters or as characters from Guacamelee, Monaco, VVVVVV, Cards and Castles, and Tumblestone.Paperbound features challenging AI bots that adapt to your skill level. Each character has his or her own personality. Some are aggressive, some are more cautious. Some are even vindictive. Some make adept use of all weapons, while others prefer to get in close for melee combat. The bots are great for solo players, for when you want to even out the teams, or for when you simply want some extra chaos.Battle within the pages of old classics including…A Journey to the Center of the EarthSkull KingdomA Book of Five RingsThe Book of the DeadDante's InfernoCompete in team or solo battles in a variety of game modes that will keep you laughing and screaming for hours:Classic VersusCapture the QuillLast Man StandingLong Live the KingPaperbound.

Other controllers may work using XInput wrappers, but compatibility is not guaranteed.
