Toxic Bunny is a side-scrolling action computer game for DOS computers released in 1996 by Celestial Games http://www.celestial-games.com/. The premise of the game is that a bunny named Toxic, a coffee guzzling, gun slinging maniac who is having a really bad day. The game covers four large levels in which Toxic hunts the person (or animal) responsible for interrupting his coffee break, brainwashing all his friends, and covering the planet with a decaffeinated goo.[1]. Within the game you can use any number of incredibly large weapons including a Nitric Hamster Launcher, while squashisng aliens with rusty nautical equipment. [2]
Many[3] say the game is a psychedelic parody of Epic Games character, Jazz Jackrabbit, due to similar game play and the fact that the main protagonist is also a rabbit. However the developers disagree, instead claiming inspirations from the popular 1994 game Earthworm Jim. Toxic Bunny is filled with an abundance of cheesy 90's references and high speed antics.

Celestial Games, having re-opened in 2010, started porting Toxic Bunny to Java and decided to give the game a full revamp. This included reanimating sprites and redrawing all the levels.

The developers of the title, are currently building version 1.3 in Unity (Game Engine) which should be completed May 2013.
