Bubsy returns in the first authorized digital release of his first two games! What could paws-ibly go wrong?
Thank you to all those that voted in our Greenlight campaign to #SaveBubsy! Thanks to you, the first official Bubsy release since 1997 is now available, and the future looks bright for the rascally bobcat!
In commemoration of this momentous occasion, Bubsy insisted that official Bubsy T-shirts be made, which are now [url=http://amazon.com/retroism/]available from Amazon[/url].
And now for some Q&A! Here's the answers to some of the most common questions we've received since the start of our Greenlight campaign.
Q: Who are you, and why have you done this?
A: [url=retroism.com]Retroism[/url] is Tommo Inc.'s publishing brand for retro games. We publish digital download editions of classic games from MicroProse, Infogrames, GT Interactive, Accolade and more! We're bringing Bubsy back so more people can experience his original games for themselves, and because we think he deserves another shot.
Q: Emulated games? Is this even legal?!
A: Bubsy Two-Fur runs on an emulator used by our developer Piko Interactive under direct license from the emulator's original developers. Yes, it's legal!
Q: Do you really own the rights to Bubsy?
A: Yes! We purchased the Bubsy IP and the Accolade Brand in Atari's bankruptcy auction in 2013.
Q: Will the Bubsy Two-Fur come with Steam Trading Cards?
A: Yes, trading cards will be available from day one!
Q: What about Bubsy's other games? Will you be doing anything with 'Fractured Furry Tales' or 'Bubsy 3-D'?
A: Purr-haps. Much will depend on the reception and feedback from Bubsy Two-Fur.
Q: Is Bubsy's return a sign of the apocalypse?
A: Pretty sure that's a no, but who really knows? People seem to like post-apocalyptic games, so if anything that just means we'll have more of those.
Q: What does the future hold for Bubsy?
A: If we told you, we'd have to...well, let's just say there's more in the works, but we don't want to let the cat out of the bag.
