Welcome to The '90s. After the success of a certain blue hedgehog, a bevy of other game developers immediately took notice, and soon every publisher seemed to have their own Mascot with Attitude starring in their own Platform Game. Accolade was no different, and if similar trends with Scooby-Doo and Sailor Moon have taught us anything, everything's better with cats! Enter Bubsy the Bobcat, a pun-slinging feline with the ability to glide by holding out his arms like an airplane and who constantly finds himself combating an alien race with a serious love for stealing yarn.The series began in 1993* (despite the 1992 copyright, it didn't hit stores until May 1993) with Bubsy in: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind, originally released for the SNES and Sega Genesis, and later rereleased for PC. This was quickly followed by Bubsy II (for SNES, Genesis, even the Game Boy) and Bubsy in: Fractured Furry Tales (for Atari Jaguar) the following year. While the 2D games received mixed reviews from critics, they sold well. Accolade even attempted branching the franchise out into an animated series.Releasing just two months after Super Mario 64 showcased how to handle the Video Game 3D Leap and Crash Bandicoot demonstrated how to tackle 3D platforming on the PlayStation, Bubsy 3D was a commercial failure and is now seen as one of the worst games of the fifth generation. Accolade would abandon the studio that developed it (don't worry, they bounced back) and permanently shelve the property, ending the tail of Bubsy after three short years.Except not really. A 2015 Steam Greenlight campaign resulted in a brief resurgence by way of a compilation of the first two entries, entitled Bubsy Two-Fur. The franchise then came back in earnest via Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back, a 2½D sidescroller entry in the series developed by Black Forest Games that released on October 31st, 2017 for PlayStation 4 and PC.note Ironically, not only once again within months of new Mario and Crash Bandicoot games, but a new Sonic the Hedgehog title as well. The launch trailer acknowledges this. On May 16th, 2019, a running platformer from BIT.TRIP developer Choice Provisions entitled Bubsy: Paws on Fire released for PS4, PC, and the Nintendo Switch. Playing similar to the company's BIT.TRIP titles, this entry features many playable characters besides Bubsy himself, including a Woolie in a flying saucer, as well as Virgil the Vole and Arnold the Armadillo from the failed TV pilot. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall: If you didn't press any buttons, Bubsy would eventually knock on the TV screen and yell at you. In Bubsy 3D, he starts messing with your TV settings. Get to the final level of the first game, and Bubsy says, "Woah, are you still playing this thing?" | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Hansel and Gretel in Fractured Furry Tales. Sure there are a few versions that make them seem a little more... questionable, but this is one of the very few that makes them outright villains. As opposed to the original story, where they only killed the wicked witch after she tried to kill them first, here they apparently kidnapped the witch and locked her in a cage for no reason, and they try to kill Bubsy too when he shows up... by throwing apples at him. Also, it turns out the witch is actually Mother Goose. | |

Is There a Doctor in the House? | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_235f151f | comment |
Is There a Doctor in the House?: In the intro for "Claws for Alarm", Bubsy says, "Is there a veterinarian in the audience!?" In Bubsy II, one of Bubsy's death quotes is "Is there a doctor in the house?" The trailer for The Woolies Strike Back goes with "Is there a veterinarian in the house?". | |

Animated Actors | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_254fc1c6 | comment |
Animated Actors: Bubsy is an animated actor in a cartoon world starring in his own games that are also movies. Movie-like game titles allude to Bubsy being not only a character in the game, but also starring in the game as an actor. The titles of stages are often parodies of epic movies, with different stages representing different movie genres. Bubsy has even threatened to walk off the set multiple times. In the intro to "Rock around the Croc", Bubsy says, "Next time, I get a stunt cat." In the intro to "No Time to Paws", Bubsy says, "Oh, I can give up show business?" In the ending to the first game, Bubsy leaves the set, and drives off in a limo. | |

A Winner Is You | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_27b418da | comment |
A Winner Is You: Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind has a particularly infuriating one: "I win! I win! Well... I guess you helped out a bit too." A small celebratory cutscene does occur afterwards however. The Woolies Strike Back ends with a 5-second shot of Bubsy escaping from the exploding Woolie spaceship with his beloved yarn ball, and then goes to the credits. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: Rob Paulsen sounds much more helium-pitched as Bubsy in Bubsy II than in the cartoon. Given his predecessor, Brian Silva, had his voice pitch-shifted to achieve Bubsy's voice in the first game, it is likely that Paulsen adopted the same technique. | |

Butt-Monkey: Most of Bubsy's lines in the first two games imply he's a struggling actor who can't catch a break. Given what happened to his series, it's oddly prescient. In the second game, his sidekick Arnold the Armadillo took this role. In Bubsy 3D, the end-of-level animations have Bubsy getting hurt in some way. | |

Buffoonish Tom Cat: The titular protagonist Bubsy himself is a bobcat, being a mixture of an comical klutz in the 3D game's death animations and cutscenes, an Insufferable Imbecile in the cartoon series and was a clownish Butt-Monkey in the 2D games showing his buffoonery when being prone to slapstick in the series, when the series continued on, Bubsy was still shown to have a giant lack of common sense with so much sass and his behavior overall, just enough for Bubsy to be presented as an Idiot Hero. | |

Expressive Health Bar | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_5e01c78a | comment |
Expressive Health Bar: In Bubsy 2. You get 3 HP, and Bubsy's expression next to the lives counter changes to show how many HP you have left: a cocky smirk at full health, a nervous grin at 2 HP left, and an Oh, Crap! face at 1 HP left. (If you die by running out of health, it stays on the Oh, Crap! face as your death animation plays.) Averted in the original game, where you were a One-Hit-Point Wonder, and in Bubsy 3D, which simply showed a numerical counter next to a paw print (so-called "paw points"). | |

Multiple Head Case: There are two different two-headed Woolies, Queens Poly and Esther and the General, though interestingly their respective cases of polycephaly seem to be quite different. Poly and Esther are almost always treated as if they're two different individuals who happen to share the same body, making them more like Conjoined Twins, while the Woolie General's heads always speak in unison and he always refers to himself in singular pronouns, implying that his two heads share the same brain. | |

The music would speed up or slow down depending on Bubsy's movement, and would frequently switch melodies depending on where you were in the level.

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Bubsy II has the bonus levels where Arnold the Armadillo must be guided to the correct exit from a truck's engine. If Arnold falls into the left or the right exit, he gets flattened by a wheel and the time bonus is cancelled. The one exception is Manifold Destiny, which only has the middle exit. Bubsy 3D will angle the camera downwards when you jump so that you can see where Bubsy will land when platforming. This feature backfires in a sense, as while it's helpful during the various precision platforming areas, the camera can be disorienting when in boss levels, where jumping will cause the camera to stop looking at the boss. The amount of health you have chipped off from the bosses will stay even when you die unless you lose all your lives in The Woolies Strike Back. Speedrunners exploit this on the second boss by gliding on the top every time it makes its appearance and dying on purpose to repeat the cycle. | |

Have a Nice Death | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_d933263 | comment |
Have a Nice Death: Death animations are situational and attempt to evoke the cartoony style of Looney Tunes. In Bubsy 3D, this is taken further, with an animation for falling into bottomless pits, and cutscenes for falling into water and green goop. And more. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Upon seeing the level title "Eye of the Bobcat", Bubsy says: "That's it, I'm outta here, you can't make me...", and runs off the screen. | |

Who Writes This Crap?! | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_dd891949 | comment |
Who Writes This Crap?!: When Bubsy is referring to the punny-level titles. In the intro to "Beavery Careful", Bubsy says, "Hey, I didn't write this stuff." One of the sound bytes heard before a level in Bubsy II is "Who wrote this stuff?!" Another has Bubsy asking if the writers' strike is over. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: Discussed in this JonTron. For those who don't feel like watching, in the first two games, your field of vision is very limited, making it hard to tell where you should go and what's just offscreen trying to kill you. JonTron also notes the inconsistency of Bubsy playing like Sonic but the level design being more akin to Mario games, with an emphasis on precision platforming despite Bubsy's very loose controls. Some Call Me Johnny also delved into other problems: Level design not built around Bubsy's abilities, platforming sections that are hard due to Bubsy's obscene speed not matching the platforming, frailty combined with the above problems leading to the multiple deaths, sprite sizes being too huge causing said accidents to happen, and inconsistent ideals about how to play the game. It's hard to be slow and methodical with a character as fast as Sonic. Likewise, he couldn't (and he tried) play it safe with level design created with the intent of murdering the bobcat. | |

Aside Glance | |
| Bubsy (Video Game) / int_e8e3807 | comment |
Aside Glance: In the title screen of Bubsy II, Bubsy is facing his back towards the audience, but then turns his head to look directly at the player, does something with his hand, and rolls his eyes and gives a thumbs up, wiggles, and says "I like it" before looking back at what he was looking at. | |

Cats Have Nine Lives: You start with nine lives in the first game. You will lose them fast if you don't know what you're doing, and sometimes even if you do. | |
