The Fable
An evil force is meddling with nature and the season bent on creating a 5th season and commanding an army of wood-like and animal monstrosities.
Enter Rick the Fox, while he would otherwise have no interest in sticking his neck out to figure out what's causing this ruckus, the reward of riches and a mighty crossbow entice him to take on the evil horde and stop it once and for all.
Gameplay synopsis
FOX n FORESTS is a 2D side scrolling run and jump game inspired by the 16-bit games of yesteryears, developed by German Studio Bonus Level Entertainment.
Gameplay is set on a 2D plane as you progress through levels battling enemies using your crossbow, in addition you can also change between seasons that change the levels slightly in order to progress by creating platforms or removing obstacles.
Changing Seasons will make certain elements change such as the weather, plants and animals. For example, switching from Summer to Winter will freeze water allowing you to pass through certain areas with water obstructing your path.
As you play through stages you will collect coins which you can then spend on upgrades, furthermore, during a stage, you can also spend coins to activate checkpoints if you want, otherwise you can give yourself a small extra challenge by beating a stage without using checkpoints.
