Pixboy - Press kit

Description

Pixboy is an arcade 2D platformer, which embraces all classic platformers features. It tells a story about a mad scientist, who invents a super elixir giving an ultimate power (at least he thinks that), but unfortunately, the gang of naughty dogs prevents his plans. There are 40 hand-crafted adventure levels, 30 types enemies, 150+ secret rooms, and 24 color palettes resembling old times e.g. MS-DOS, Game Boy, or IBM. Explore 4 different worlds with unique mechanics, fight with enemies (or show them mercy to get a special Pacifist Badge!), try to beat speedrun thresholds set by ruthless authors, listen to an original chiptune soundtrack and have fun! Use this game to travel back to the past and immerse yourself for a couple of hours into this retro world!
