8BitBoy 1.48 - New content, new features — 8BitBoy™ News

Collecting coins is suddenly a very essential part of playing 8BitBoy. 100 coins used to equal an extra life, but now it activates the power-up roulette. Any power-up you get, you can keep in a slot for when you need it. This makes everything so much easier, and a lot more fun. Having a power-up ready makes you a lot stronger.

- Fullscreen setting is saved (no choosing at startup)
- Player accelerates faster and breaks faster
- Hidden areas "closes" when dying

Use Y on the controller or shift on the keyboard to use any stored power-up. You can customize your key bindings in the main settings menu.

Have fun!
