Bonus-Level

@SouthpawGrammar Thank you! But personally for me 6 is not fair. Other indie games got 7 ratings here that neither show more love, length, a higher production value in my eyes. We probably got bad luck with the one who reviewed this not being our core SNES 16-bit audience (we got 8s and 9s as well on other outlets), but considering that a 6 can be a "make it or break it" criteria for a small indie studio like us I was really hoping for a better score.

@emeyece - We have 3 difficulty settings and not even "hard" comes close to Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts or ActRaiser 2 on "normal" on the SNES. Yes, FOX n FORESTS is a bit edgy, on purposes, as we wanted to capture the look and feel of SNES games that did not guide the player that much - and thus finding our stuff yourself becomes even more rewarding in our view If you are into SNES, do give FnF a try, you will not be disappointed as many 9s and 8s ratings show.

This is very sad for us to see, as FOX n FORESTS also got some 9/10 and 8/10 ratings. I agree that the game might be a a but too edgy for some, but if you are a true SNES fan or Retro gamer, please give this one a try!

@Eef - There are no plans for a physical edition yet. Rather not wait forever

@KryptoKrunch Thanks for not forgetting about Rick the Fox Yes, FOX n FORESTS will be out on May 17th! The coming soon page on the Nintendo e-shop should also be online soon. Looking forward to the reception of our 16-bit style title!

@KIRO We wanted an asynchronous couch co-op mode but ran out of time... Maybe something for the future

@bolt05 Glad you like the music! Here is a preview with some songs to listen to: http://music.fbpsound.com/album/fox-n-forests

@NintendoPete 19,99 USD/EUR and 15,49 GBP

@MartyFlanMJFan Crazy! Looks really hard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LI4oLF1EQbU

My favorite C64 game is Montezuma's Revenge and this even inspired us to the 4th Bonus Level of FOX n FORESTS.

@diablo2 Thank YOU Love the video too, the SFX made me smile after an 11 hours day of work, cheers!

@Eef There are no plans for a physical release. Many people are asking but we are a small team and for a physical release the digital sales would need to be very, very solid. And "limited" etc. physical releases are also not everyone's cup of tea.

@Rhaoulos Hmm... It is a good game We went for the SNES look and feel as we are big fans of it and love the old classics. But we did put a lot of our own ideas and fresh elements into the title, such as the seamless season switch mechanic.

@KIRO True that, we planned an asynchronous multiplayer mode but - I am sure you have guessed it - ran out of time. However, couch co-op is something we would love to do in the future...

@RagManX No worries, we have easy, normal and hard as difficulty settings. Easy is very forgiving! Hard on the other hand... my team blames me for making hard too hard *lol

@RagManX Fair enough, this is why we made sure that you will earn enough gold from checkpoint to checkpoint to support "Retro the Badger" expand his collection of retro games

@mauhlin12 Cool you noticed "Retro the Badger" has 30 fun things to say!

@Ralizah The idea of switching season actually came to my mind when playing Ikaruga on the GameCube! Awesome game

@fiben1002 No worries, spring will be spring

@Abes3 - Thank you! All together it was 3 years of blood, sweat and tears, really hope it will pay off and Bonus Level can make some more 16-Bit style games

Hi, here is Rupert once gain. Thank you for all the positive comments, they really mean a lot to us!

@price-point:
The planned price is 19,99 USD/EUR.

@Abes3:
Shovel Knight and its success was a big inspiration for us.

@ogo79:
My shame: Street Fighter 2 Turbo, Killer Instinct and ClayFighter (for its creativity and the stop motion aspect).

@emeyece - No need to worry, we have 3 difficulty settings. The game on "normal" is a fun challenge, but we did not go for the ultra-hard route like some other games. However, unlocking every last bit is not that easy in any mode, but more because of "hidden secrets" than of difficulty.

@KingdomHeartsFan - Will do, thank you!

Hi Everyone, this is Bonus Level, the developer of FOX n FORESTS. Thank you so much for all the great comments!
