About The Indestructible Moxy Boxy
The Indestructible Moxy Boxy is a precision, twin-stick shooter where you heal and reload by inhaling defeated enemies. Or avoid reloading all-together by never missing an attack!
Each stage is a unique shoebox diorama, filled with action-oriented puzzles and delightfully violent Boxy creatures to battle.
Each Boxy type is susceptible to exactly one kind of attack, out of four in your arsenal, but actually landing an attack requires learning enemy patterns and controlling enemy groups.
And that’s before encountering the dreaded… Zomboxies.
Here’s the deal with Boxy World - it’s greatest resource is its people. Literally.
Every house, couch or deadly weapon is made from the corpses of dead Boxy’s. Luckily every Boxy is exactly 10 x 10 in proportion - except for little Moxy Boxy. Manufactured at only 8 x 8, she literally does not fit in.
Desperate to be accepted, Moxy proves herself as a powerhouse Green soldier, taking on Blues, Reds and Purples with deadly precision.
Until one afternoon when she encounters a Yellow Boxy - long thought extinct - and is ordered to destroy her on sight. Every Boxy is a potential resource, after all.
The Indestructible Moxy Boxy is an examination of guilt, consequences and atonement, told over five acts and 150 dioramas.

[i] My Experience [/i] I'm generally a big fan of top-down shooters anyway, but the aesthetic of this one in particular caught my eye. I liked the visual style - the "shoebox dioramas" constructed out of cardboard, and the explosions of boxes into their constituent sides. I also found the healing/reloading mechanic to be quite creative. Unfortunately, I found playing the game to be less appealing. The aiming did not feel particularly precise (a concern echoed by reviewer [i]Hotmud9[/i]), and I found it tedious to switch between the ammo types necessary to dispatch the different enemies within the game. Echoing another concern of the aforementioned reviewer, I too found that the music became repetitive quite quickly (although it's initially rather catchy). Despite my appreciation for the novel idea created by developer Playvir Productions, I didn't enjoy playing the game itself enough to recommend the experience.1 found this helpful
I haven't even gotten through the first act, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, this game is already touching my heart. This is definitely a hidden gem. Rich story (Who knew I would grow so attached to a box?), a good start on the music (It gets repetitive WAY too fast but I still love it), and an amazing execution of mechanics. The controls could use a bit more polishing, and saving isn't very prevalent from what I've seen, but by god, would I recommend it.1 found this helpful
I had fun with it! Pros: Really expressive art style Tight combat I really connected with the story and the music Cons: Wonky camera at times but this could be because I was playing the game on my laptop.1 found this helpful
my name is moxy and many say i'm kinda boxy so this game is quite literally for me! can you change gabber's name to gabriel pretty please it would make my day. it's my best friend's name and it would make the experience even more perfect. great game only issue is when you die you have to restart from the very beginning
Fun game that's easy to play. I'm new to gaming and saw this on instagram so I thought I'd give it a go.. point-and-shoot play style meant I was able to hit the ground running and have been enjoying the character interactions (and the music lol)
