8BitBoy is a Cool Retro Platformer by Indie Game Developer Awesome Blade Software!
This is a huge classic platformer with several power-ups and 8-12 hours of gameplay & 300+ hidden locations just waiting to be explored. There are 56 big levels, and 5 huge worlds to explore.
8BitBoy is the brain child of Rasmus Sorensen, a 1-man indie game developer from Awesome Blade Software. The game is a single-player old-school retro platformer that pops all of the right buttons to get you absorbed from start to finish. I like the depth of the game having over fifty huge levels and over 300 hidden stashes to find. This is the kind of retro game I like to play! – Donnie, Editor, GFB
8BitBoy: The Story
Quite frankly, 8BitBoy is depressed about losing his job. Then, he recalls all the good times he spent playing his 8-bit console as a kid. Deep in the darkest corner of the basement, he finds it along with a strange looking cartridge. Plugging the cartridge in immediately, he finds himself sucked into a vibrant but decaying world of platforming. Your adventure starts here.

8BitBoy: More Features
A true tribute to old-school gaming, it’s not a walk in the park, but it’s never unfair either. It’s a mash-up of some of the best games from the late 80s and 90s and a complete game on its own terms. Achieving big challenges always leaves you feeling better and bigger.
