Description

"Bug Too!" is a 3D platform video game developed by Realtime Associates and published by Sega for their Sega Saturn console. Released in 1996, it serves as a sequel to the original game "Bug!" and continues the antics of the protagonist, Bug, a green, animated insect who aspires to be a film star. This sequel offers a more expansive and diverse adventure as it introduces new environments and characters, including Bug's new friends, Maggot Dog and Superfly. Set across various levels themed around movie genres and parodies, such as Western and Horror, players navigate through the levels avoiding obstacles, defeating enemies, and solving puzzles to advance.

The gameplay mechanics of "Bug Too!" follow the traditional platforming elements but with enhancements that allow for exploration in a quasi-3D world that shifts between 2D and 3D perspectives. The game features a mix of running, jumping, climbing, and combat, with each of the three characters possessing unique abilities that the player can switch between to overcome specific challenges. Notable for its time, "Bug Too!" featured voice-acted characters and used vibrant graphics to fully utilize the Sega Saturn's capabilities. Although it received mixed reviews, being praised for its creativity and humor but critiqued for sometimes clunky controls, it holds a nostalgic spot in the hearts of many Sega enthusiasts and represents a notable entry in the pantheon of 1990s platform games.
