Bug! is a 1995 platform game developed by Realtime Associates and published by Sega for the Sega Saturn. It was also ported to Windows 3.1x and Windows 95 in 1996 by Beam Software. The game is one of the earliest examples of 3D platforming, as well as one of the first platform games released on the Saturn. Character movement is restricted to a track, unlike many games in the genre that allow for unrestricted movement in all directions.
The game centers around Bug, a green bug – and Hollywood actor – who hopes to gain fame by defeating the villainous Queen Cadavra. The game was developed with the titular character being considered a possible mascot for the Saturn. Although Bug! failed to capture consumers' attention, it received positive reviews upon its release, with praise for its graphics and visual effects and criticism for its music and voice acting. It was followed by the sequel Bug Too! in 1996.
