Bubsy is a series of platforming video games created by Michael Berlyn and developed and published by Accolade.

The games star an anthropomorphic bobcat named Bubsy,[1] a character that takes inspiration from Super Mario Bros. and Sonic the Hedgehog.

In addition to the power-ups found in the original game, there are bouncing TVs that Bubsy can collect which allow the player to view more of the cartoon.

In the game, Bubsy faces antagonist Oinker P. Hamm, who has created the "Amazatorium", a theme park that saps information away from history and puts it on display for his personal profit.

These include a "portable hole" (a small portal he can step through and disappear to the main lobby), a diver's suit, a Nerf gun, screen-clearing smart bombs, or extra lives.

Additionally, Bubsy could take two hits (denoted by his expression next to the "lives" counter), and on a third, he would lose a life – though some hazards will still instantly kill him.

This version of the game features the three levels of difficulty, but only has three of the original worlds (Egyptian, Musicland and Skyland) available for play.

It is the sequel to the original in terms of the story and takes place on the Woolies' home planet, Rayon.

In October, Atari CEO Wade Rosen announced in a YouTube interview that the company was open to pitches for a new installment in the franchise.

[11] Bubsy also had a pilot episode for an animated series sponsored by Taco Bell in 1993,[12] titled What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

[13] Calico Entertainment and Imagination Factory jointly produced the pilot for airing on Bohbot Communications Kid's Day Off syndication package for Thanksgiving 1993.
