Fans of retro top-down shooting game BOH will be pleased to find out today that the game will be on the receiving end of a large update today.

For those who don’t know anything about the game, BOH is a retro-styled top-down shmup that takes place in claustrophobic, dark corridors where anything can attack you at any time. The game’s premise is pretty simple, each level there is a “master” that is controlling all the monsters that are being thrown at you. In order to complete the level you must navigate your way through hordes of monsters until you find and defeat the “master” that is controlling them all.

The game is surprisingly fun, and even offers a level editor so that you can create and share levels with the community.

Now that you know a little bit about the game here are the details on the update:

• Adds the aiming device (a tool that shows the shooting trajectory);
• Allows to restart from the last phase played when difficulty is set to “easy”;
• Adds 2 new missions;
• Refines light casting;
• Enriches and extends the menu music of the theme “underground”;
• Retouches the menu music of the theme “default”;
• Adds the Danish translation;
• Improves the translations;
• Fixes the “mood” of the ending;
• Updates and improves the manuals;
• Applies various other changes.

As always, BOH updates are free to download.
