Paper Animal RPG landed on Kickstarter this week, and has already secured full funding having surpassed its goal of roughly $40,000. In the process, a Switch version has been confirmed.
The game, developed by Cuddling Raccoons Studio, is a roguelite RPG with a real-time tile-based battle system. Here’s some additional information:
Paper Animal RPG is a cute roguelike game where you can explore a colorful world, fight scary enemies and relax with your friends at the campfire! The game is inspired by and pays homage to the Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi as well as the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series.

A few days later, the village fell into despair and the once so cheerful days seemed gone forever. In the midst of chaos a group of brave adventurers emerged, determined to find the whereabouts of the king!
