Paws and Leaves - A Last Tale

In "Paws and Leaves", you play as Me, a young fox bitten by a snake and now... dying. It's like life flashing before your eyes, when you die. You'll follow Me on his final journey to rediscover his memories. By his side is a charming butterfly named Ani, who will help you, sometimes more, sometimes less. Me relies on his senses, like smelling, to locate his memories in the realm between life and death.

During your journey, you'll encounter various characters, uncover their stories, and retrieve memories and mementos. Mementos aren't Me's memories; they're yours, the players. They're scattered throughout the world and can be anything - a personal message, an image, or even a short video clip that you want to endure in our world.

Through our upcoming Crowdfunding via Kickstarter, you'll have the opportunity to include one of your memories as an exclusive memento in the game. These submissions will become permanent collectibles, cherished and valued.

Beautiful, colorful seasons create a cute and cozy backdrop, while the poignant story and subtle "jump scares" serve as a reminder:

Me is fading.

"Paws and Leaves" guides you through its narrative yet allows you to explore the breathtaking world in-between. Small "open world" zones invite you to discover more mementos, unravel their secrets, and unveil new tales. You can even fish for mementos on an old, wise turtle.

Yet, this is just the beginning of what we have in our minds for "Paws and Leaves". We hope our Crowdfunding via Kickstarter will enable us to realize our goal of making games significant.
