2D Puzzle Platformer BOOR – Hitting Steam February 14th

BadLand Games and Dazlog Studio are gearing up to release BOOR on February 14th on Steam! Save the colony of Eden by moving across 80 levels filled with exciting puzzles, menacing enemy robots, and hair-raising bosses in this beautiful puzzle platformer for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

A little girl accidentally lands on Eden, a faraway human colony under siege by a malfunctioning A.I. known as BOOR. Alone and afraid, she must collect items, reveal secrets, and solve puzzles to put an end to BOOR’s evil masterplan. Can she uncover the planet’s many mysteries? Will you help her survive the A.I.’s murderous intent and bring peace back to Eden?

Multiply yourself, run and jump, and stay on your toes to survive BOOR’s traps and hazards. Here’s how it works: Use the “multiply” power to take command of a clone, which can then complete dangerous tasks such as tricking robots into shooting each other, leaping over dangerous obstacles, and more. But you’ll also need to think strategically: You’re left vulnerable while you’re roaming, and clones tend to expire after a while.

Pricing & Availability:
BOOR will be available on Steam (Windows, Mac, and Linux) on February 14, 2017 for €4.99/$4.99/£3.99.
