Boxing Star introduces animal-themed MegaPunches and new Gym gear

Boxing Star, the popular arcade sports sim from ThumbAge, has just rolled out an exciting new update that's sure to knock your socks off! If you're looking to add more punch to your gameplay, you'll be thrilled to know that two new MegaPunches are being added to the mix. These special moves are the equivalent of super moves in other fighting games, like Critical Arts in Street Fighter, and they're unleashed when your Hyper Gauge is sufficiently filled. Get ready to flatten your opponents with style!

The new MegaPunches bring an animalistic flair to your arsenal. The Flame Bone, inspired by the mythical dragon, engulfs your opponent in flames, dealing damage based on critical hits. Meanwhile, the Frost Fang infuses your punch with ice, freezing your opponents in their tracks and dealing damage while the chilly barrier is active. These additions promise to spice up your boxing matches with their unique effects.

But it's not just about the punches. Boxing Star is also introducing new gym equipment to help you upgrade your character between bouts. The Deadlift enhances your skill damage stats and can be upgraded up to level 8, while the Training Timer shortens the time needed for skills to be trained. These upgrades will help you hit harder and faster in the ring.

While purists might argue that Boxing Star strays from a realistic boxing simulation, there's no denying the fun factor that comes with its gamification approach. The mix of goofy expressions and hardcore action makes for an entertaining experience. And with the latest update, the game keeps delivering on the flashy, engaging content that players love.
