Puppeteer

Puppeteer is a platformer that was developed by Japan Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, exclusively for the PlayStation 3 console. It was released on September 5, 2013 in Japan, on September 10, 2013 in North America and on September 13, 2013 in Europe.

The Moon Goddess once ruled over the moon, until Little Bear takes over and declares himself the Moon Bear King. He now steals the souls of children and turns them into puppets, having them serve as guards in his castle. One such boy, Kutaro, has his soul stolen, but the Moon Bear King finds him useless, so he devours his head and casts his body aside. Kutaro steals a pair of magical scissors, the Calibrus, and uses various heads to get back his own and return home.

Gameplay

At its basic level, Puppeteer is a platformer, but it has two unique gameplay elements attached to it. The first one is a switchable head mechanic, which functions as both the hit points for Kutaro, as well as one of the two attack methods. The other mechanic involves the Calibrus, a magical pair of scissors used for attacking and platforming.

Heads

Kutaro loses his head at the beginning of the game and must find new heads in order to progress through the game. Kutaro can only carry three normal heads at a time, with new ones picked up discarding the ones in your inventory. He can also lose a head by getting hit by enemies and if he loses all three heads, then he will lose a life.
