When Rollie reaches the level exit, the players score is tallied based on the number of ladybugs freed, the number of clovers found, and if all four pieces of the blue clover has been found. Lady bugs are trapped at several points of each level and can be freed by kicking their cage. Gates can only be opened when Rollie has the appropriate colored key. Nuts are scattered throughout the level which, upon being opened, have power-ups, keys, clovers, or enemies. Rollie has the ability to jump, kick, and roll, the latter two of which can be used to attack most hostile enemies. Players navigate through ten different stages as Rollie.

As of March 1, 2002, it has sold over 30,000 copies worldwide, prompting Pangea to rerelease the game as a shareware release. It was generally well received by critics, being praised for its graphics, gameplay and soundtrack but criticized for certain technical glitches as well as gameplay repetition, and sold fairly well, enough to warrant a sequel, Bugdom 2, which was released on December 30, 2002, and starred a grasshopper named Skip who attempts to retrieve his stolen knapsack from a large Bully Bee as opposed to Rollie McFly. Rollie must travel to Thorax's anthill on the distant reaches of the Bugdom, while freeing various trapped ladybugs along the way. The player assumes the role of main protagonist Rollie McFly, who has survived the ambush of the kingdom by taking refuge in the lawn area. Thorax now rules the kingdom with an iron fist, and the ladybugs have been imprisoned in spider web cages scattered across the environment.

Originally, the kingdom was peacefully ruled by the rollie pollies and ladybugs, but not long ago, the kingdom was overthrown by the tyrannic and pompous King Thorax, leader of an evil clan of fire ants, as well as their evil follower bugs recruited prior to the kingdom's downfall. It was released in North America on December 1, 1999.īugdom's story centers on the Bugdom, a kingdom inhabited by insects that appears as an outdoors bug environment. Despite this, Take-Two continued to publish copies following the debate. However, Take-Two apparently continued publishing illegal copies of Bugdom, prompting Ideas From the Deep to contact the FBI's crime division.

I actually never really played any games on computers in school after elementary school, so I've no idea if any of the computers we used in middle school or high school had anything installed on them gamewise.Bugdom is a third-person, action, platform computer game developed by Pangea Software for the Macintosh and was included with the iMac DV 2000 and later iBook models, as well as the PC by Gathering of Developers, and later Ideas From the Deep following the acquiring of Gathering via Take-Two Interactive in 2002.

Hell, even in my fifth grade class, the two Macs in the classroom both had THPS4 installed and our teacher literally made us use a timer when we played for 15 minutes because whenever we'd have free time, like six or seven kids would rush over to play it.

However, a few of the computers (like I think only three of them) had Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 installed for some godforsaken reason and if you were part of the computer club (like I was) and you took one of those, you were in for a goddamn good time. (Bugdom and Otto Matic might've still been on them though, only like 80% sure though, it's been years sue me) Then around 2004, they upgraded to some newer ones which had Marble Blast Gold installed instead. Bit younger than most, but when I was in elementary school in the early-mid 2000s, like all the Macs in the computer lab had Bugdom and Otto Matic.
