About the Game

Are You a Boat? is an action 2D platformer with a paper aesthetic that tells the story of Paperman and his dream of becoming a boat, currently in Early Access. The game will be updated periodically. He must overcome people's preconceived notions of him and gain self confidence to achieve his dreams. The game has 4 action packed boss battles and six platforming levels. You can transform into a throwing star to attack enemies and later a shield to defend yourself from harm. Face knights, giant squirrels, robots, and dragons to prove you are worthy of being a boat.
