This is a third person action adventure game, a port of a successful Mac
title. The game is set on the insect kingdom of Bugdom, where the bad fireants have
overthrown the government and kidnapped all the ladybugs. You play as pill bug Rollie
McFly, who takes it upon himself to rescue everyone and save the day by riding bigger
bugs, jumping around and kicking some fireant booty. The game uses fully 3d
accelerated polygonal graphics. It has over 23 different bug enemies, and 10 huge &
exciting levels with lots of terrains & environments to explore. Publisher Ideas From
the Deep contacted the FBI's intellectual crime division, accusing Take-Two Interactive
of having sold illegal copies of Bugdom, under the Global Star label, since January
2002. Take 2 had acquired the license in 2000 through the acquisition of Gathering, but
failed to keep it when they defaulted on the payment to Pangea. IFD picked up the
license in January 2002, but Take 2 continued selling copies. In Dec/2020, a freeware version was released to run on modern o/s. |
