No. Never again.
I've played this game WAY more than I should have, If I'm being honest. That's what happens when you don't have very many games in your collection when you're young, and you've already played Spyro for the millionth time.
Everything in the JonTron and Caddicarus reviews are pretty much accurate. Tank controls with LITERALLY bare bones visuals, combined with poor hit detection, harsh acceleration and slippery breaking, punishing enemy placement, nebulous boss design, and an incredibly unfunny cast of characters that pretend to by part of the cast of Looney Toons.
The only reason I have this game still is to be set as a reminder of what NOT to do when making a platformer.
If I'm going to give it any praise... it's that the underwater controls aren't as awful. Surprisingly decent, if still operating on tank controls.
To put it lightly, stay the hell away from this game, unless you want a harsh lesson on what a bad platformer actually looks like.

a game that people hates for no reason, one of the first 3D platformers, bubsy 3D was made way before crash bandicoot and/or SM64, even the creator said the game should update the movements (tank controls like RE) to analog, all cause of accolade. they even wanted to make a saturn version with the 3D controller in mind,cause of the ratings that didn't happen, heck bubsy 3D never leaved the playstation since,now bubsy ended up a laughing stock cause of them
Bubsy 3D is not a game, its a test. A test of endurance, will, and determination to continue. Beating this game with a friend of mine didn't feel like beating it; It felt like we had survived it. (it's not as bad as you think)
It says paws when you pause the game
i beat this game just so my friend could buy me sonic frontiers
A horror game in disguise.
Bubsy 3D, a fever dream I might have played or watched, the lines blur. Was it a nightmare or just a fleeting hallucination? Tank controls in a 3D platformer, untextured platforms, and a soundtrack that descends into horror? It's as if the developers were playing a prank on gamers. Madman Mackola, if you had a hand in this, you've got some explaining to do. Or perhaps, it's best left buried in the annals of gaming history. 1/10 for the haunting memories that may or may not be real.
"Ah but it was being developed before Mario 64 set the standards" yeah so was Croc, but they had the decency of actually finishing the game instead of releasing a broken mess
"Ah but there are worse ps1 games" nah, there certainly are lazier games, but I'd rather play copy pasted board games than the first level of Bubsy

It's so atrocious that it is almost charming. So its just terrible instead of atrocious. Maybe it'll be just a bad game if I sit down and try to beat it. Then again, I will probably just find it an irredeemable game like how it was in the first place.
(Bottom 5) Good lord. What can I say about this dumpster fire that hasn't already been said. The controls feel horrible, Bubsy feels like he's on roller blades the whole time, the level design is horrendous, and Bubsy never shuts his damn mouth. Combine that with tank controls and a bug that essentially turns your controller off if you try and turn on analog support and you have a game, that by all accounts, should never be played by anyone ever.
Guys I don’t see what’s so wrong with this
Played it in one go...genuinely horrid
YOU DONT KNOW THE DEPTHS OF WHAT COULD GO WRONG BUBSY YOU SIT ON YOUR FUCKING IVORY TOWER OF NAIVETY AND YOU ENJOY AND HAPPINESS YOU ARE BLISSFULLY UNAWARE OF THE DANGERS AND THE INJUSTICES OF THIS WORLD
Uranus
dadaist fucking hellscape
tears of the kingdom has some stiff competition
This Game Took Bubsy In 3D. Bubsy Is Honestly Underrated To Me.
This game is Satan. It's like getting the death penalty in Hell. The controls are awful.. and the soundtrack sounds like it was composed in Mario Paint without any idea of how to use the program. All of the bad puns make me wanna PAW my hair out. I can't stand this game, and I would rate it zero stars if I could.
All the levels look like test levels, and the enemies are placed right in your butthole in case you wanna avoid them. On top of that, the camera really sucks. Two player mode is not redeeming whatsoever.
Oh, by the way-- no matter if you get the good ending or the bad ending, you literally meet the same fate. Don't even finish the game. The "Game Over" screen is the true good ending.

Thanks, but not really.
honestly this game is aint that bad. its not good, but i think i could go through the whole game if i suddenly felt like it and feel at the very least something.
I've played a lot of those crappy games you'd see online from "Top 10 Worst Games of All Time" lists. This one for me reigns supreme as the worst of the bunch, and I don't need to explain why. Well done Bubsy.
Played the first few levels to understand just how bad a 3D platformer can be.
Safe to say I wasn't disappointed!

One of the only games that has ever made me physically ill to play, I had to take several breaks while playing this so I'll take that as a sign that this game is not fit for human consumption.
The developers deserve an Accolade for creating such an abomination.
The only reason you should ever play this game is if it's for a good cause. And now that I think about it, I don't even think I was the one to play this during a Gextra Life charity stream a few years ago. It was like 4 in the morning and I think I was watching someone else play it.
I don't even have a funny haha quip for this
Tank controls in a platform game... Nuff said
genuinely a humbling experience.
Bubsy...
O que falar de Bubsy que até hoje não foi dito?
Bom, uma coisa é que eu respeito muito a Accolade por realmente ter tentado fazer esse mascote funcionar, e parece que deu um pouco certo, já que ele teve jogos novos uns anos atrás. Fez ele não se tornar em um personagem esquecido, apenas infame por todos.
Bubsy nasceu na década de 90, em meio ao desespero de todas as empresas em fazer um mascote tão famoso quanto Sonic. Até então, ninguém arriscava em bater de frente com Mario, mas Sonic deu esperança pra dezenas que foram atrás do mesmo pote de ouro. Uma a uma, essas empresas caíram com seus jogos de baixa qualidade e sem criatividade. Mas Bubsy segurou firme. Com apenas uns 4 jogos de qualidade questionável, sobre um gato/lince, eu sei lá, lutando contra alienígenas que querem, ãh, roubar todos os novelos de lã do planeta... oh não...... As fases eram montadas quase que igual em Sonic, e Bubsy tinha um pique de corrida, mas zero defesa, auto sabotando a gameplay do jogo, precisando parar cada 3 metros pra atacar inimigos.
Mesmo com esse caos, parece que a Accolade conseguiu verba suficiente pra fazer um jogo pra esse novo console chamando Playstation. Ele poderia ser em 3D, seria novidade, imaginativo, incrível, quadrado, sem textura, travado, horr-- hã?
Pois é, aparentemente eles não tinham a menor ideia de como um jogo 3D deveria funcionar, mas tentaram mesmo assim, decidiram em lindos tank controls pro Bubsy e montaram um mundo em volta dele. Um mundo surreal, com quadrados saltando pra fora, texturas sem sentido, ou nenhuma textura, e PNGs pixeladas jogadas onde podiam. E eles estavam orgulhosos! What could possibly go wrong?
Até o dia dum pequeno show chamado E3 onde eles viram como Mario tava se saindo e se deram conta da burrada...
Mas o que estava feito não podia ser desfeito, o jogo foi lançado poucos meses depois, com a capa decorada com mínimas frases de críticos que falaram do jogo, tiradas completamente de contexto, para parecem boas kkkkkkk
Foi um fiasco, mas um clássico fiasco que todos se lembram.
