Fun game, until you get to the last level boss and then it's a test of patience and pixel-perfect skill of "trying not to die falling off the ledge".

Incidentally, the Genesis version has this "widescreen" mode you can enable on GameGenie. Unfortunately, it makes hit boxes wonky, specifically on boss battles that are just one room with no scrolling.
 
The gameplay just looks so uninspiring. Yeah the movement may be fun, but what happened to good level design that takes advantage of it? Just zooming all over the place like a kid who drank too many energy drinks is not engaging at all if there's no point to it.
 
Honestly looks okay. The pride rainbow is a bad sign and the metahumor is a bit much but I am cautiously optimistic and I feel like that second element will be more prevalent in the advertising than the actual game.

What Bubsy has over all of the other long dead platformer heroes mentioned in this thread is that:
A: He isn't own by a huge megacorporation that wants to hoard IPs while only using one or two like Sega, Capcom or Microsoft.
B: Nobody gives a fuck about him unironically so he is probably comparably cheap to license and people aren't afraid they might fuck him up. Worst case scenario it is another bad Bubsy game for the pile.

Anyway Mischief Makers revival when?

There will never be another Tonic Trouble...
Man, I don't think I have ever even seen another person even mention that one. For some reason that was my go to N64 3D platformer as a kid.

This isn't exactly a good thing though. You'd think if someone had the rights to the "iconic" character they would do everything they could to handle it with some sort of care and make it better than what it was before.

Like making him bad -unironically- isn't helping, nor adding anything good to the gaming scene considering it's VERY over-saturated with games like these. It is entirely possible to make a good Bubsy game with a little spit-shine and polish, but doing the bare minimum is not how to do it.

All this is is 'memberberries taken at it's lowest common denominator, and everyone above a room temperature IQ is sick and tired of 'memberberries.
 
I would just like to point out that Bubsy's trailer is getting less shit on the internet than COD BO7 and the new WOW expansions from the Gamescon reveals. We live in a world where people would rather have a new Bubsy game than the latest iteration of Call of Duty or World of Warcraft
lol, lmao even, Bubsy won the long game!

I get you but just throwing a new Bubsy game out there without even acknowledging the troubled past of the series is just going to prime people to expect another shitty Bubsy game. I would also argue that this does look like a genuine effort to make something good with the IP. The graphics and gameplay seem decent and the decision to redesign Bubsy into an out of touch dad feels like a natural progression for the character.
 
Atari's trying really hard to cash in on the Bubys hype, what with partnering with Limited Run on the collection and 4D, with the latter even being ported to the fucking PS4. lol
Seems to me like they're spreading themselves too thin that I can't imagine B4D's Switch and PS4 ports will be getting nearly enough polish as the other high-end consoles. The dev said on a stream the other day that B4D's still in Alpha, but "in terms of content" it's playable from start to finish and they just need to polish it up.
Played it at gamescom. Wasn't impressed. SMB3D was more impressive.
How'd it feel to control? The camera along with jumping looked a little too jittery.

Which is a weirdly ironic double standard, since everyone, and especially irony poised Zoomers, consider a meme outdated/cringe as soon as Boomers or the media start spouting them, but everyone's all in on Atari and their washed up, wise cracking, 3 decade old anthro cat making dated comebacks. I'm gonna' assuming no one really cares about Bubsy himself or his games outside of furfag goonery and using him as a conveiniant excuse to dig up and tell really old, bad jokes.

You aren't wrong although some people have a slight nostalgic soft spot for the original game. Myself included.
Personally I am going to withhold judgement on how they handle the humor until we see more of the game. If it is sparse it won't annoy me but there is a very real possibility that they go full Gex and have him never shut the fuck up.
 
I thought that was synthwave/cyberpunk lighting, or did fags just steal it like they stole the rainbow flag?
Fabraz Indie Dev
I see his games are all over the place, just trying to cash on every meme indie genre, one is a mashup of sanic gameplay with tall running autism with pedobait loli characters just built for speedrunning troons
It''s easier on the Japan version. Find MIJET's translation patch and just play that because it also has an actual story that got removed from the US version.
Was it more popular over there?
he could had been a character that's fun to hate, with him shitting on everything and being bitter about the industry shitting on him for his entire life.
So like the troon bubsy?
Ahem:

But yeah all jokes aside. What kinda monkey's paw wish did accolade software make to give this orange bastard 9 lives?
Those old genesis covers had SOVL

No, it's just that Headdy was a little too "japan" for the US side of Sega, so they decided to alter a FUCK-TON of things. Headdy first released in Japan in August of 94. The US got it one month later.

The graphics being the more obvious changes, mainly because "hitting women bad"

Yes. Faggots are notorious for copying original symbols or themes and then claiming it as theirs or saying it actually was always related to their aids transmitting sickness. The colors usually seen in Synthwave and even Cyberpunk have nothing to do with LBBQ, just like how the rainbow was a benign symbol of god completely unrelated to being a aids carrying pedophilic faggot. The colors blue pink and purple were just a cool combination of hues with the Synthwave genre, but in typical faggot fashion, these people have to infect and rob everything normal
 
We've reached another social nadir when we start astroturfing irony.
 
I’m mildly annoyed that they made Bubsy a furry. He was already an anthropomorphic animal, but stuff like extra tufts of fur, more emphasis on feet/paws - that’s a furry.

I say “mildly” because Bubsy wasn’t exactly a sacred icon to begin with, just know that if this game results in a brief spike of Bubsy porn, it was done on purpose.

Well then, it wasn't all for nothing

Think of all the 3D platformers that don't get dedicated shill threads. The people have spoken, and they demand more Bubsy porn, even if they prefer not to say it out loud in so many words.

And i thought Boobsy (the troon version) was the worst thing i saw in my life.
