Have You Played… Beast Boxing Turbo

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time.

Beast Boxing Turbo is a simple pleasure, the kind that’s hard to write about. It’s Super Punch-Out but with monsters. You’re a human woman who has decided to enter a beast-only fighting league by wearing a haphazardly designed costume. You first-person punch your way through progressively more difficult bouts and, in between, spend the money you earn on new equipment and new moves.

And that’s it. And it’s great.

IndieGala Interstellar Bundle Contains Some Stars

Indie Gala’s latest bundle looks a rather nice one. The IndieGala Intersellar packs in Cubicity, Interstellar Marines and Rush Bros. all for a buck, and then Beast Boxing Turbo, Sang-Froid: Tales Of Werewolves, Interstellar Marines’ Spearhead Edition, and PixelJunk Shooter for $6.

Monster Smash: Beast Boxing Turbo Demo

Jim correctly identified Beast Boxing Turbo as A Good Thing when he saw the trailer a few weeks ago.

I used keys to move and block while the mouse buttons were my fist pistons. It works well and gamepads are also supported. The demo is time-limited – fifteen minutes – so the equipment and skill development doesn’t get a look in, but it’s pleasantly unhinged, like a friendlier Zeno Clash.

Today’s Beast Game Idea: Beast Boxing Turbo


I’ve always said that the PC needs more first-person boxing games, and so I must extend my gratitude to Good Hustle, developers Beast Boxing Turbo. It’s not hard to guess where they take the game: you box lizards, you box trolls, you box skeletons, you box demons – all in a lovely hand-drawn art style. It’s just about beasts getting a thump up the bracket, basically. And they look good while they’re doing it. I am not sure how “turbo” relates to it, but I am guessing it’s one of those suffixes that are automatically added to games dependent on genre, without any real reason.

Anyway, you’re probably definitely going to want to see skeletons get punched with bright-red boxing gloves, so there’s a video below for that. The game will be released “soon”.
