Bug Fables – A Cheeky 2D Paper-Style RPG at Bitsummit TGS 2019

During the Tokyo Game Show 2019 with Bitsummit’s 2019 live-stream on Twitch, we got to see a new trailer and some gameplay of Bug Fables. Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling is an action/adventure RPG developed by Moonsprout Games and published by DANGEN Entertainment and they have confirmed that it will be releasing on Steam here on November 21st, 2019, with console versions to be announced at a later date.

You might be thinking: “Ew bugs, they’re gross.” However, once you see some gameplay, you’ll instantly recognize the familiar cheeky tone, turn-based battles with companions, and the 2D paper art style reminiscent of classic Paper Mario games! Play as Vi, Kabbu, and Leif as they search Bugaria’s kingdoms, swamps, forests and deserts for The Everlasting Sapling, a treasure said to grant immortality! On the Indie Stage, we saw the Vi, a lazy bee, capable of using her Beemarang to grab items at a distance. We also saw her first companion, Kabbu, a mysterious warrior able to use his horn to cut things with force.

    This looks and feels so close to Paper Mario, that I’m not sure I believe this isn’t a Paper Mario game.

      Yes they seem to have gotten everything right! I’m hoping the humor and story are just as good.
