A downloadable game

Boxx 4 is a colorful platform game for Commodore Amiga by team Retroguru.

Features:

* Classic Jump 'n' Run gameplay
* Three difficulty levels (easy, normal, hard)
* Unlock-able modes: (co-op mode, gun mode)
* Big boss fights!
* Lot's of oldschool pixels
* Finest Amiga chiptunes

Boxx 4 won 1st prize at the Revision Party 2023 Game Compo!


Story:

One day, Cubo discovered that an evil robotic witch had slowly taken over his home area and was using her army of followers to torture the local inhabitants. Cubo knew he had to do something... to save everyone. ...and set out on a quest!

Certainly, getting the electronic monster eliminated wasn't easy. The way was blocked with checkpoints, but coins opened the doors magically. It seems even evil watchmen can be attracted by money. Supporters of Cyrce, the robotic witch, might still look after you and will crush you without mercy.

Can you survive and succeed your mission?

Yea way faster loading times on hard drive.

Copied this onto a floppy and played it on my Amiga 1200 today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Great music too. Well done guys.

Thanks. Playing on real hardware is always the best experience. :)

...reported a new bug in version 1.02: If you land in a red (acid?) pool, e.g. right at the beginning of level 1, you no longer die. The game hangs and you can only cancel by pressing ESC.

Fixed. Thanks for reporting.

Once more a great part of the game series. Dream on - A physical boxed collection with all 4 parts - Dream off

So much work but maaaybe. Ty. :)

Fantastic game !!

Thanks!
