About this gameFull description from Steam
Paper Planet is a doodly planet-defender roguelike, with Flash-inspired visuals. Born from a love of my childhood favorite Flash games, and modern roguelikes I've sunk countless hours into, taking the best of both planets. Uh..? of both worlds! Face down unique enemies, with increasingly difficult behaviors and varied attack patterns as each run progresses. Try out different game modes and challenges. Paper Planet is designed STAY interesting no matter how long you play it! Play with friends in local co-op to really push the limits! Items BUILT to synergize! Create massive swarms of bee-bullets, walls of electricity, or teleporting rocket bombs! Every item in Paper Planet is made to work with every other item, creating a near infinite number of different combinations to discover! Showdown against fun and weird Bosses. Learn their distinct personalities before overcoming their specialized combat mechanics. Whether you're chasing a high score, risking it all on an overpowered Cursed Item build, or hunting for new and unexpected item combinations.
