Sadly, it feels like a less-good version of Bit.Trip Runner.

About This Game
From the developers of the BIT.TRIP series comes Bubsy: Paws on Fire!, the latest and greatest in bobcat-based gaming.
Oinker P. Hamm is determined to capture every animal in the universe for his “Amazootorium.” Bubsy, fearing mostly for himself, is just as determined to stop him. Two archrivals, stitched together by the cruel knitting needles of fate. No matter who emerges victorious, there is one thing we know for certain: There’s going to be a whole lot of yarn along the way.
So, so much yarn.
Features:
- Four playable characters, each with their own unique mechanics! Fly and shoot your way through the air as The Woolie, take it underground with Arnold’s bonus levels, or run your way to victory with Bubsy and Virgil Reality!
- An all-new story featuring the unlikely alliance between Bubsy and his archrivals, The Woolies!
- Over 100 levels set across three different worlds!
- Three boss battles!
- A unique combo system and set of leaderboards for every character!
- A shop with costumes and cosmetics, all of which players can unlock just by playing the game. There are no in-game purchases!
- Unique character dialog for every level!
- A variety of collectible types, ensuring maximum replayability!
- The return of Oinker, Terri, Terry, and many other characters from previous Bubsy incarnations! We even have Virgil Reality from the Bubsy cartoon pilot—we dug deep!

User Reviews
I went into this game knowing that I would dislike it due to it being a Runner game, which I don't like, but it's actually quite a bit worse than I expected. The level design is pretty mediocre for the first two worlds, then it gets ridiculously difficult in World 3, and it's very unfair, requiring either top level reaction time or multiple playthroughs to collect all the yarn and token pieces. Aesthetically, there's nothing wrong with the game, but it feels bland because the levels all seem to blend together due to reusing the backgrounds. Gameplay was pretty alright, but I didn't like the Arnold levels, they remind me of Sonic Heroes' Special Stages, and that's a terrible thing to be reminded of. Boss Battles were really weird. The first one had Bubsy take over the ship for whatever reason, the second one used his standard gameplay, and the final boss used both. Phase 2 of the final boss was really annoying though, if you're even a little off, you're probably going to die either ...
