In an alternate-history 2005, the forgotten ’80s platformer Cocoboy has re-entered the spotlight, sparking the rise of a niche community of passionate fans.

COCOBOY Demo Disc is a culmination of around the first year of COCOBOY's development. The contents of this demo include:

• Lost Attic's tutorial area and the first level, Coco Coast.

• 5 Modcart abilities.

• 18 collectible merchandise items.

• Full support for Keyboard & Mouse, Controller, and Steam Deck.

• All major planned game systems and quality of life features, including save data and settings.

• A bonus level from the game jam version, now known as the Gray Wastes.

  • This level isn't planned for the full release, but it's here to give more content to play with while more levels are being developed.

• A fully functional VHS player, including a hand-animated cartoon and live-action FMV segment

Experience Cocoboy like never before with Modcarts—cartridge-like devices hacked together by tech-savvy community members. Discover clever combinations of mods to progress, uncover tricky secrets, and even break level design in unexpected ways.

Need a break from the platforming action? Take a breather and decorate your bedroom with rare pieces of Cocoboy memorabilia. Discover merchandise from a game franchise thought to be lost to time... and buy them with coins you find throughout its levels! Who knows... maybe these artifacts can even guide you to secrets in the game itself..?

A prototype version was originally developed in one week for Vinesauce's Shroomjam 2024. After seeing how much the original game resonated, we decided to continue development and make COCOBOY a full game.
