Paint the town BLUE! Bugs 'N Boo Hags is an award-winning modern retro arcade-style platformer with tower defense elements, an 80s pixel-art look, and original chiptune music. The game design and visual aesthetic are inspired by the history, culture, and folklore of the South Carolina lowcountry region, particularly in and around the historic seaside city of Beaufort, the surrounding Sea Islands, along with nearby Charleston and Savannah.
Designed to appeal to both core gamers as well as those who are nostalgic for an authentic retro arcade experience, Bugs 'N Boo Hags is launching as an all-new “mobile deluxe edition” release exclusively for iOS in 2026.
But no need to wait for release! If you have an iOS device, you can join the beta program and get early access to the game for FREE!
As the Lowcountry locals say: “Don't let the hag ride ya!”
“People at Indie Bits LOVED your game”
“It’s everything BurgerTime could have been”
“Bugs ’N Boo Hags is a super fun retro platformer with an original and wonderfully realized Southern theme”
