Hi-Score Boi Reviews

If you love to rack up achievements in games while listening to some really catchy midi music, this is for you! Highly addictive and fun to play!

This is a great game to chill out and relax and have a great time. Definitely recommended!

If you enjoy mindlessly hitting the keyboard space-bar for hours and hours like some sort of brain-dead lab monkey... then this is the game for you !!!

It's a fun little clicker and a nice way to pass time. I can also see this as being an idle mobile game at some point. The in game art is nice and I especially like the palette. I expect more to come soon.

Really cute "meta" game that postures the question: what does it mean to play a game? You play AS Hi-Score Boi PLAYING a game ;) but all you do is click while we may never know what crazy adventures Hi-Score Boi is having on his end :P It's fun just to see the achievements pop up and to read the commentary on them, which makes this game even more "meta" silliness. I admire this clean mini-game effort very much as a fellow indie dev. We just got through GDC online and this was -exactly- what Charles McGregor's panel was about: make anything and make it simple, just -make a game-. So it's inspiring to see this on the marketplace especially after watching that panel. Cheers! Update: I AM the Hi-Score BOI! Grabbed all 50 achievements in under an hour of gameplay. Could've done it in less but... y'know. Oldies like me get carpal tunnel lolol. Gives me an idea: a leaderboard could add to the meta siliness. I can just imagine people trying to be OP and go for way more than the 1mil (or get faster times) so they can be crowned the Hi-Score Boi. Could be something to look into for added longevity of play and a different motivation aspect ;) Cheers again!

Looking for a relaxing, achievement clicking game? Hi-Score Boi fits the bill. The scores needed to unlock some of the achievements may seem daunting initially, but trust me when I say you'll get sucked in to reaching that next high score.

I think the tag of clicker tells you everything you need to know. It is only slightly more than one of the Achievement Clicker games by art style and effort. Click the button, lots, end.

I couldn't stop playing once I started. Beautiful, crisp graphics. I loved the music. I am getting this game for my friends! Great game! 5 Stars

Date of completion: July 21, 2023. "Another clicker game? Eh, well I have an auto-clicker program." [Sees that the game requires the usage of the space bar instead of clicking and doesn't have a window screen feature.] "...Oh..." Anyway, the Achievements and unlockable stuff are for visuals, obviously. Not that any of it matters; I eventually was watching vids on my phone to pass the time while giving my wrists the useless workout until I got all the Achievements. That's how forgettable this game is; sorry.

It's nice to look at...while you click the space bar (or have a script running to auto click the space bar), but zero depth. You seriously just click the space bar. I foolishly expected more with the fun graphics...that you soon realize never change. There's no fun to be had, or reason to ever come back to the game after the last achievement pops, and it very unfulfilling...but I got the achievements. I guess, if I want more, I can just play an actual "game."
