<p>Launching on Nintendo Switch later this week is <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/pixboy"><strong>Pixboy</strong></a>, a retro-inspired platformer that’s sure to flood you with lovely ’90s-based nostalgia.</p>
<p>With a limited colour palette, groovy chiptune music and plenty of platforming to beat, Pixboy really is giving us the retro vibes in the trailer above. The game features 40 levels with nearly 30 different enemies to contend with, as well as four powerful bosses that stand between you and your goal.</p>
<p>The game’s world has more than 150 secret rooms to find, and you’ll also need to be on the lookout for special coins that can be swapped for new theme colours resembling your favourite retro consoles like the Game Boy.</p>

<p>We don’t have pricing for the game at the time of writing, but we do know that’s planned to launch on Switch this Thursday, 11th June.</p>
<p>Will you give this one a go if the price is right? Tell us below.</p>
