Was Bubsy ever good?
The character certainly stands out; the problem is, none of the bubsy games released across retro consoles were ever good. His 2d platformers on snes, sega genesis, game boy, and atari jaguar had potential, but ruined the experience with floaty controls and odd level design. Ign’s levi buchanan cited the game as a failure to transition from 2d to 3d, criticizing the character design compared to previous bubsy games, as well as the game’s controls. Game revolution suggested that the negative reception for bubsy 3d may be why developers are reluctant to make another 3d game in the series.
