About the Game



From the developers of the BIT.TRIP series comes Bubsy: Paws on Fire!, the latest and greatest in bobcat-based gaming.

Oinker P. Hamm is determined to capture every animal in the universe for his “Amazootorium.” Bubsy, fearing mostly for himself, is just as determined to stop him. Two archrivals, stitched together by the cruel knitting needles of fate. No matter who emerges victorious, there is one thing we know for certain: There’s going to be a whole lot of yarn along the way.

So, so much yarn.

Features:
  • Four playable characters, each with their own unique mechanics! Fly and shoot your way through the air as The Woolie, take it underground with Arnold’s bonus levels, or run your way to victory with Bubsy and Virgil Reality!
  • An all-new story featuring the unlikely alliance between Bubsy and his archrivals, The Woolies!
  • Over 100 levels set across three different worlds!
  • Three boss battles!
  • A unique combo system and set of leaderboards for every character!
  • A shop with costumes and cosmetics, all of which players can unlock just by playing the game. There are no in-game purchases!
  • Unique character dialog for every level!
  • A variety of collectible types, ensuring maximum replayability!

  • The return of Oinker, Terri, Terry, and many other characters from previous Bubsy incarnations! We even have Virgil Reality from the Bubsy cartoon pilot—we dug deep!

Unlike the previous Bubsy-games which were 2D platformers, Paws on Fire is an endless runner - and not a very good one. You play as four different characters with different movesets/playstyles, however the game is easy,

It's not a Bubsy game, it's a game with Bubsy characters. An auto-runner just isn't the best fit for this franchise. Also, why did they retcon Bubsy being the twin's uncle? Also all of Arnold's levels can be beaten

Controls are unreliable, and Bubsy does not suit the endless runner game format. This game is much worse than Woolies Strike Back, and that astounds me. Also don't forget that the developers tried to crowdfund on

It's great that there is a modern Bubsy experience that is playable from smart to finish. I played through the entire game with no crashes, bugs, or frame rate drops.

This is more of a neutral review but I will rate it more positively than negatively because the game isn't broken in any way and works fine as kind of a button timing platformer. The original SNES Bubsy games are
