#REDIRECT [[sega:Bug!]]
'''''Bug!''''' is a video game for the [[Sega Saturn]]. Released in 1995 in North America, Japan and Europe, it was one of the earliest 3D platform games. It was later released for Windows 3.x & Windows 95 on August 31, 1996 by Beam Software, on one CD that contains both versions of the game.
 
 
 
==Story==
 
The plot revolved around the title character, an actor in Hollywood hoping to make his "big break". Players take control shortly after Bug has signed a deal for the lead role in an action film in which his girlfriend is kidnapped by a black widow and must rescue her. The actual gameplay takes place "on the set" of each scene and cutscenes between levels show Bug moving from one set to the next.
 
 
 
==Gameplay==
 
''Bug!'' was played like a traditional side-scrolling adventure title. In the same fashion as Sonic, Bug jumped on the heads of his enemies to defeat them while making his way through large levels and collecting power-ups. Bug can walk sidewise up vertical surfaces and even upside down, which actually adds a lot to the feel of the game; no other platformed has done something like this, at least not this well. Each set of levels (ranging from a bright, green grassy area to a deep red, desert level) have a deeply individual look and feel.
 
 
 
Players could pick up two powerups to give Bug new forms of attack. One gave him an electric attack which was best used in close-quarters while another gave him a poisonous spitting attack for ranged combat.
