Puppeteer (video Game)
''Puppeteer'' (パペッティア) is a platform video game developed by Japan Studio for the PlayStation 3. It was directed by Gavin Moore. The game was released worldwide in September 2013. It is playable in both traditional 2D and in 3D. Gavin Moore says ''Puppeteer'' plays better in 3D than other games because the camera does not move and his team used a method of 3D that has not resulted in a reduced framerate. Gameplay ''Puppeteer'' is a side-scrolling platformer in which the player controls the character 'Kutaro': a boy changed into an animated puppet and immediately decapitated. Throughout the game, Kutaro obtains various heads to replace his own, each enabling access to certain animations, and referring to the adjacent scenery. If Kutaro is damaged by an enemy or obstacle, he loses his head. Should the player not retrieve the head within a few seconds, it will disappear. Kutaro can hold three heads at a time, and when they are all lost, he restarts from the last checkpo ...
