Angry the Clown 4,173 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 I don’t know if this can go beyond Octodad in offering more beyond short term novelty, but I love that this weird thing exists. It will be an Epic Game Store release on PC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graeme 936 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 This is just weird and I have no idea what is going on. I like weird and different, but this did not appeal to me at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Tyner 249 Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 If there's a physical release, there's a 95% chance it'll be under our Christmas tree as a gift for the wife. I don't really have a clear picture what the gameplay is, exactly, but the concept and aesthetic are pretty irresistible. And for anyone else who couldn't get that earworm of a song out of their head, the trailer's music is by Kero Kero Bonito. Romier S 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Graeme 936 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 I don’t particularly like the song (and think the game looks weird), but it has been stuck in my head all day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,173 Posted July 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Oh I'm under no impression that anyone over the age of seven years old actually LIKES the song, but.... gah..... it's just got that catchy 80s/90s novelty record vibe to it. 😀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Romier S 4,873 Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 Gameplay and thoughts! Adam Tyner 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JFo 1,750 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Bugsnax will be offered as a free game for members of PS Plus on launch day for PS5. Pretty cool! I'll have a good lineup of games to check out for the launch of PS5 between this, Spider-Man, Sackboy, and Astro. Josh, Romier S and Angry the Clown 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,173 Posted October 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 That's great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Romier S 4,873 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 That's excellent. It was a game I planned to pick up anyways. Even better to get it as part of Plus! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graeme 936 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 It’s one of those games that I would probably like to try, but wouldn’t buy, so it’s nice to get it free. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Angry the Clown 4,173 Posted October 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Worth noting it's a PS+ title until January 4th. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogbert 1,291 Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Reviews are coming out - here's RPS. Quote Bugsnax never quite manages to marry this aspect of the game with the part where you’re lurking near a bush, using launchpads to trap a bunch of grapes that’s also a mosquito. There are certain features that feel half-finished or not fully developed. You can feed your captured snacks to the Grumpuses to transmute their limbs and facial features into various bits of strawberries, pineapple slices and calamari, customising their appearance to suit whatever particular preferences you might have. But you’re prohibited from ever eating the bugsnax yourself, an inexplicable design choice for a game that’s this much about food, and one that leaves you feeling like a sad spectator to the whole ordeal, a street urchin pressed up against the window pane of a Victorian sweet shop. For the five or six hours it takes to reach the game’s ending, Bugsnax is a delightful and intriguing world to inhabit, just one whose robotic wildlife won’t inspire you to jump back in and finish off your collection. Bugsnax is a faintly naughty, but never crass adventure that feels simultaneously like a love letter to, and a sharply observed satire of, the games that inspired it.

Eldorado 775 Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 I’m watching my son play this right now. It is so not my thing. Angry the Clown 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Graeme 936 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Hmm, I watched a review for this and it does seem quite different than I expected and could appeal to me more than I thought. I might give this a try. We’ll see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
