Boni 2 - Return to Bat Hell
A downloadable game
Boni 2 - Return to Bat Hell is the follow-up to Boni in Bat Hell.
Boni upon leaving Bat Hell, was told there is a mountain of gold in there, so back he went, this time hoping to get all the gold and be rich!
I was told that Boni was a little too easy so Boni 2 has been designed to be a lot harder and give fewer lives. (there are 20 levels)
The extra life orbs are still there but only appear on every other screen this time.
also instead of collecting skulls you have to find the switch and flip it to gain access to the gold room and then collect the gold to beat the level.
**Warning** The game is hard, it's recommended that you play Boni in Bat Hell before playing this one.
My Boni games were inspired by the excellent DanTerrifik games by TOKU soft.
Music in my game was done by Mast, David Whittaker and Karbofos.
Golden Tip:- The key to many levels is to jump and then move, not move and then jump.
v1.1 out now, which fixes a level 12 bug!
v1.2 out now which fixes a game ending bug on the last level.
Thanks to ssoares96 for finding these issues!

Hey, I hope you don't mind, but I featured your awesome game in my top 50 Spectrum homebrew games of 2025
Thank you
No probs at all :)
Great new game, hard as it should be. I've also added it to my new video along with other recently released games. Hope you like it.
That's superb, thank you very much!
Great! Thank you.
Nice but very hard game. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 04:05:40. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Thank you very much!

now it's the last gate that don't open, this is to bad :|
OH NO!!! I'm so so sorry about this. I have no idea how this didn't open as I know I did test the switch on every level. I will look into it first thing in the morning and try to do a fix. again, I'm sorry about this it must be so annoying for you. You've done amazingly good to get that far in the game too!
v1.2 is now up which fixes this. again, I'm sorry this happened.
Very fiendish! I'm now a pro at level 1 but can't beat level 2
You will, I think the only tricky thing in level 2 is at the middle top. rather tricky but here one huge tip: Jump THEN move, don't Move THEN jump. Press jump and once you're in the air, then move. You'll find that saves you many deaths.
level 12 has a wall that its to high for the player jump to get through to get the passing item, its impossible to pass :(
is it a bug?
Yes it is! Thanks VERY much for spotting this. I thought I had tested this level. version 1.1 is out now and this is fixed. Thanks and sorry about this.
Another good one, Steve. Looking forward to the finished game
Thanks and it's finished now. v1.1 fixes a bug in level 12 so get that one.
Oh, just a reminder though, you forgot to change the status, as it's still marked as "in development."
Thanks! I hadn't noticed that. Changed it now, although I just fixed a bug and uploaded v1.2 so I guess it was still in development ;)
I didn't know that David Whittaker was still active making music on Spectrum.
I don't think he is. There is a site with a load of free Spectrum music to download, including some of his.
I guess the first game just wasn't difficult enough?
It was for me but my friend CharlieFar played it on his twitch stream and went through all 20 levels in one go. He asked for it to be made harder and this is it. (some people are just too damn good)
:-O
In his defense, it is CharlieFar. The guy's a game playing legend
Nice game!
Awesome! thank you.
