I'll be honest. I owned this. It was one of our first PS1 games as a family. And we loved it. We didn't know better. I didn't know it was a bad game until I was an adult.

this game is so wild!! I really need to replay it

the aesthetic is so good and I love the little noises the woolies make 😭

sharkabytes.bsky.social•89 days ago

Aww, thank you for sharing such joy! Always endears me to something when I see such fondness for it.

Actually not that horrible a game and certainly not as awful to look at as the old Stanburdman vid that catapulted it to internet infamy makes it look.

Yeah, it's a *strange* game but genuinely far from all that bad if you're willing to learn it and play it by its own rules.

And honestly, I feel like 'gamers' are quick to shit on any art style that attempts any sort of surrealism unless it's extremely high fidelity.

I actually dig the art direction it has.

I fear no man. But that… THING… it scares me.

mistresslilith.bsky.social•89 days ago

Hm. Would you rather play Bubsy or Somari?

i unironically kinda love how this game looks even if it could use some more detail (which it used to have but got cut) and its not even that bad to play once you learn the controls

its not good but its def not the worst ps1 game ever, not even close, not when stuff like iznogoud or tunguska exist

Never played any other than the OG - sunk endless hours into that game though. Went back not too long ago and couldn’t get anywhere close to where I remember getting to as a kid

I'm gonna say this, right here, right now. I do genuinely like this game. Is it a perfect game? Obviously not, in fact I wouldn't call it great. But I feel like people crap on this game for arbitrary reasons rather than actually look at it fairly. I do really like the visuals and music especially!

I figured if there was a guy out there who claimed to log 3500 hours in Bub 3D it must have some redeeming qualities

I honestly didn’t like it at all, in fact I hated it. But if people find something to like about it then I’m glad.

I like Bubsy himself and I think he deserved better. Still does
