Buck Bumble

released on Sep 30, 1998

A chemical spill somewhere in rural England has mutated an army of bees into killer insects! Led by their queen, they are out to destroy everything living thing on the planet, including all insects that dare stop them. Only Buck Bumble, the only bee not to be turned evil by the ways of the queen, can save the world, and his fellow insects, from total destruction. Shoot down swarms of enemy bees, while flying and avoiding the hazards bellow or land on the ground and attack the enemies on foot with various weapons. Also included are a handful of two-player split-screen modes, including Buzz Ball, a unique soccer style game.

Played it just for the theme song and sure cause bees are a thing for my stream. Enjoyed messing around for an hour and a half. Clunky as hell.

Amazing soundtrack and while the controls take some getting used to, they are really fun once you master them. Pretty solid game, only real grip is that the game needs checkpoints. Level length gets unforgiving if you die.

Janky controls with banger music? I didn't know we were dealing with a Sonic game

Gameplay was really boring and unmemorable but god damn that main menu song goes so hard, it's incredible.

[Review from memory]
Maybe just need to play this one again one day, but I remember it being very stop-and-go, shooting at enemies while hovering around a distance they were helpless from instead of flying around like would've been the cool thing to do. Either way it's conceptually cool and the main theme is one of the hardest pieces of video game music to come out of the 90s.

Waiting for it to maybe come to NSO one day or something because I'm too lazy to pirate it.

Isso foi um pesadelo com uma boa música
