We had to do it. Bubsy is back, nearly 30 years after the entry that doomed the franchise, with some legitimately great platforming to boot? What could possibly go wrong?? Check out our interview on the unlikely return of one of gaming's most meme'd-on mascots! #hypocriticgg #bubsy #paxwest

what
Fabraz - Demon Tides & Bubsy 4D (@fabraz.bsky.social)
Bubsy for Smash.

"I really got a kick out of using Bubsy’s variety of abilities across the demo level, which includes the classic glide, along with his new rolling ability that turns him into a giant hairball."

If you followed me only because of Bubsy 4D... Did you know we're working on ANOTHER 3D Platformer?! This is Demon Tides! Our extremely ambitious, open world, and expressive passion project! You can play the demo on Steam right now!

Only thing announced for now but considering our history, somewhat safe betting/hoping for more down the line!

why is this phrased like a threat, also no

Of course no Bubsy game is complete without some Woolies! In Bubsy 4D they've, involuntarily, become the BaaBot's lackeys.

Talking of (bob)cats, my good friend and teammate's cat Sage has been going through hell lately. The family opened up a GoFundMe page because they need help paying the mountainous vet bills. It would mean the world to me if you could help them out! gofund.me/0c7f1019

We got to banter Bubsy with @powerdubs.bsky.social from Atari. The "best Bubsy games" allegations are true and it was fun to yap with Jason about this unexpected revival while literally just SCHMOOVING through the world. @fabraz.bsky.social is a mad lad for this one.

It's a pretty fun time if you embrace it as a masochore platformer where the controls are part of the difficulty.

Gained a bunch of followers since the Bubsy 4D announcement, time to lose some: Mario Sunshine is my favorite Mario game, Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts is a great game, Dark Souls 2 is fun and I enjoyed Bubsy 3D the most from all classic Bubsy games.

"The reception has been very positive, which is what makes Bubsy 4D so surprising. With a history as disappointing as this, to have a new Bubsy game in 2025, and potentially a good one, is huge for the series."

This was one of the very first pieces of concept art we made for Bubsy 4D!

I've already seen two pieces of fanart based on this concept piece. Maybe this is too much power...

Colleague from Atari sent me a video of his speedrun of the first Bubsy 4D level and um... It's amazing. This took him HOURS to pull off, uses a speed exploit and (obviously) skips all optional content.
