Michael Berlyn supposedly spent several hours a day playing Sonic as research for this game. He must've spent the time repeatedly running headfirst into the first Motobug because he learned nothing.
what's really weird is the series creator Michael Berlyn had to write up a thesis on why Sonic was a fun and greatly designed game to convince his bosses at Accolade to greenlight making Bubsy......where the fuck did all that research go?!?! Even SEGA realized their game wasn't going to be a lick of fun if you died every time you zoomed into an enemy you couldn't see coming, that's why the Rings exist......it baffles the mind how everything about Bubsy is a failure yet he's loved in gaming culture despite being the Jar Jar binks of video games
I remember playing this game as a kid and thought it was one of the hardest games ever. I believe the FURthest I ever got to was Eye of The Bobcat, but also remembering that I never raged quit. just enjoyed the progression.
@@Doncroft1 I would rather play a lot of other things, but this is far from the worst thing... Bubsy 3D on the other hand... Bubsy does stand as a better game though on the small library of the Atari Jaguar, so that's nice i guess... also, 6 year old comment, nice!
0:38, 1:158:30 It took me awhile to figure out what was going on. Bubsy died, so the screen faded out, but it also takes 10 seconds to show off all of those points from having over 9 minutes remaining. The death at 12:02 avoided the fadeout animation, though. Seeing him spring back to life after the 8:30 one was pretty funny.
I'm still upset at this game still after almost 20 years from when I first played it as a child. Seeing a TAS'er crush it is cathartic to say the least. It's even a little comforting that a theoretically perfect player that never makes mistakes is STILL slowed down by the huge number of BS obstacles in the game.
There are a few level gimmicks that get in the way but it doesn't seem to affect them much. Unless you expect them to glitch through every object, they aren't slowed down by much of anything.
I really love the level designs and strange physics of the controls in this game, I've always liked Bubsy, I fell in love with him when I was 14 and I still continue to play this one!
This game is great. A lot of the hate just comes from people that watched JonTron or people that never took the time to fully adjust to this game’s quirks.
This character was like my gateway drug when it came to being a fan of the character who thought he was much cooler than he actually was, and that being the joke. Too bad with Bubsy it wasn't deliberate :P And holy crap this game has some long load times between certain levels. Long for a cartridge game anyway.
The TAS final boss killing is actually standard play. Kinda crazy when you thinking about how hard the stages themselves are and then the final boss is the easiest piece of shit in the world
0:38 - They put falling damage in their motherfucking 2D platform game!? (Headline: JonTron Quits) *MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, CALL ON ME*
@@901Rayman Is it a cart? A ROM? ROM is either bad dump or needs a better emulator, but if it's a cart, maybe clean the contacts on both the SNES and cart. Otherwise, the Woolies live to see another day.
it's always so much fun watching speedrunners demolish Busby games by exploiting their lackluster programing and ballance, I think Bubsy 3D still holds the record for fastest level 1 completion at 24 seconds just by easily jumping over the level boundary
Indeed! and then this game is not terrible and just difficult, and as if I said that battletoads that it is unsurpassable and I would say that that game is terrible
they have never been terrible the designs are fun and beautiful, like a giraffe wearing shoes and glasses, or logs with a bouncy pencil eraser, or lethal bubble gum balls, or sand sharks🤣🤣🤣
and like the same thing with awesome possum and sparkster that everyone calls the poor awesome possum a poor version of sparkster from Rocket knight only because they are 2 opussums😑😑😑
Goddamn, I hate Bubsy. It's not just because all of his games sucked, either - he was just a shitty character all round. It was obviously some executives attempt at appealing to the greater market of gamers because there was seriously no thought put into him as a character. For instance: what's with the dumb shirt with an exclamation point on it? Why does he sound like he was voiced by an annoying schoolkid from Brooklyn? Why the Hell does a bobcat 'glide'? Why does he have precisely zero powerups to make him more playable in _any_ way (you know, like pretty much _any_ decent platforming protagonist would have - even Ecco the fucking Dolphin had a sonar powerup)? And why the Hell does he _run faster than the screen can scroll_? I challenge anyone to give me a decent answer to _any_ of those questions, because I guarantee the creators sure as Hell wouldn't be able to.

This game is basically what Sonic would be if rings didn't protect you and the trial-and-error design was dialed up to 11.

Wow. are you still playing this thing?
Fourth wall break XD

Neither could bubsy.
The movement in this game was insane.
What could possibly go wrong?
Everything!
Nothing!

Blast Processing on the SNES
look at the credits, the team was really small.
ay, they tried their best
They did okay. It's a fun game.

Here to say this series is getting a collection for some damn reason
More effort was put into ways to KILL Bubsy than any other aspect of the game.
Literally.
Bet you've never even played it.
Sounds pretty good
… for a game like it
12:05 - Just play it off, music composer. He'll be fine.
0:38, 1:15 8:30

This game is good fight me
I don’t know why, but there’s something hilarious about watching Bubsy being tossed around like a pinball for most of the game.
Bubsy Controls like a crazier Sonic. He jumps higher and has faster acceleration but his physics are really janky.
6:58 Music synchro
12:15 even in twelve minutes bubsy still can't believe you are still playing the game
well, I will play it 1000 times, this is my favorite platformer!
Watch 0:38, 1:16, then 2:45 and see Bubsy's surprise.
"What's with the squished bobcats?"
Squish that cat. The only thing you need to know is to squish that cat. You don't need to worry about hurting a cat.
this game is a fever dream
Un momento de silencio por su creador jhon a.s skeel❤❤
The music still gives me anxiety, I never completed it, the last level always frustrated me yet I kept playing until my cartridge got damaged 😂
Try it on the SNES emulator
Wow what beautiful memories, thanks for playing :D

I beat it. Did you?
I actually like this game I ranked it number4 of top ten best Snes games
Yay! Thanks!
Can someone mod the health system from bubsy 2 into bubsy 1 somehow because it would make it alot betrer
It’s kind of funny how simply giving Bubsy better physics and controls would make the game slightly more bearable.
8:03 Ulillillia's favorite song, Out Where The Lake Is, true speed.
Geez that was fast! Especially A 16 Level Game!
man i love a 16 level game

I like how the game would've been better if they just didn't make everything insta-kill
0:11 *Bubsy 3D:*
Never knew there was a bubsy spinnoff by aclim not accolade
do you mean awesome possum?
@@user-wj8sl5ue1z I think so
Sonic Mania is trash compared to this masterpiece.
Not even the repainted version can compare to this.
This, but unironically.
Nice joke
And as for Bubsy's pre level quips... well they don't ever get old do they?
Never😂😂😂
I love kitty!
12:04 lol
This character was like my gateway drug when it came to being a fan of the character who thought he was much cooler than he actually was, and that being the joke.
Too bad with Bubsy it wasn't deliberate :P
And holy crap this game has some long load times between certain levels. Long for a cartridge game anyway.
Quando crianças cheguei ate a ultima fase, mas não zerei. Joguinho tenso
I’m surprised there isn’t some sort of rom hack that puts Sonic into Bubsy with his abilities and physics.
Para cuando tas de bubsy en génesis?
What could paw-ssibly go wrong?
I tried this game. It wouldn't let me go to first level. The moment first level name appears, nothing happened.
Try snes9x
What could pawsibly go wrong?
3:41 6:47 8:43 10:50
That's the way we wash our hands!
FA LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA!
YEAAAAAH BUBSY 2! BUBSY 3! BUBSY FUCKIN 2!

Man, I know SNES games loved their reverb/echo but I remember even thinking when this game first came out that it was too much.
I always thought the echo in Super Mario RPG was worse. Good game tho
Sega's audio on this game was much better.

*MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, CALL ON ME*
Jeez, this looks like a confusing mess to play normally.
I played it before. It didn’t let me play the first level.
So did you play it?
@@TheUA-camGame I did, but not for long. As soon as it shows the name on the first level, nothing happens. Just... absolutely nothing.
@@901Rayman
Is it a cart? A ROM?
ROM is either bad dump or needs a better emulator, but if it's a cart, maybe clean the contacts on both the SNES and cart. Otherwise, the Woolies live to see another day.
More like a game too short
sonic brother xD
it is actually the elder companion of awesome possum
God this game was so hard as a kid...can just now play in on an emulator cause I can save a lot!
I play it from there too, but for me it would be nice if I could play it directly on the Super Nintendo
it's always so much fun watching speedrunners demolish Busby games by exploiting their lackluster programing and ballance, I think Bubsy 3D still holds the record for fastest level 1 completion at 24 seconds just by easily jumping over the level boundary
The birth of a laughing stock

So great to have a high-flying exploit to get your way around all that shitty game design
If they make a new entry of this franchise on smartphones, while is free to play i think it will do just fine.
I think Paws On fire would do well on smartphones
@@nurifu_nightly My 6 year old comment as really prophetic lol
It's like they knew this game was terrible
this game wasn’t all that bad, it was ok - bubsy 3d was the bad one and because of that game everyone shits on the entire franchise
Indeed! and then this game is not terrible and just difficult, and as if I said that battletoads that it is unsurpassable and I would say that that game is terrible

The quips don't even make sense.
Bubsi is sonic !!! lool
Ha. I expected that joke.
aaahhhh.... classic sweet irony!
I see Yuyuko at 0:00 before the actual play starts.
uno de los juegos más difíciles y uno de los finales más estúpidos
If the levep design wasn't terrible, this one I would have about 5 minutes because bubsy runs at the speed of light
they have never been terrible the designs are fun and beautiful, like a giraffe wearing shoes and glasses, or logs with a bouncy pencil eraser, or lethal bubble gum balls, or sand sharks🤣🤣🤣
what
God how I fuckin hated that game, it was a nightmare as child
This games sound track sounds so depressing

EVERYTHING GO WRONG BUBSY!!!!!!!!!!!
😡😡😠😡😠😡😠😠😡😡😠😠
So Bonkers totally ripped off this game's engine. Interesting
bonkers didn't give a damn about this game, just because bubsy and bonkers are 2 bobcats doesn't mean anything you say
and like the same thing with awesome possum and sparkster that everyone calls the poor awesome possum a poor version of sparkster from Rocket knight only because they are 2 opussums😑😑😑

Cuz he’s bubsy that’s why buttmunch
I love Bubsy. :)
I am surprised that this wasn't published by LJN because this game is just awful.
this game wasn’t bad.. bubsy 3d was bad
LJN did movie games.
if you are the one who doesn't know how to play it, then you can't say anything that this game is horrible
