Boo!

Internal documentation

Selection of graphic files

Notes

Designed by Richard Lemarchand, Boo! was a side on platformer inspired by Sonic and Mario, we wanted to create a universe with the central character being a cool ghost called Boo who’s default method of attack was to shout “Boo!” at an enemy to scare him away. Working with Keith Scoble (from Cosgrove Hall and creator of Jamie and the Magic Torch and Dangermouse) we built a great game… but unfortunately, due to rocky financial times at Microprose, we never had the money to release – so the game has been lost in time 8-(

Megadrive and Amiga versions were also planned but only if the SNES version was released.

It was cool to get front cover but it was such a shame that the editor chose not to use the graphic of Boo! (as it was felt to be too cartoony and there was a concern that placing a cartoon character on the cover would lower sales of the mag). I later worked with Andy Nuttall (editor of One Amiga) at Bullfrog.
