Game Summary:
Bubble and Squeak is a platform game published for the Amiga in 1994 by Audiogenic Software. It was developed by Fox Williams under the name Barney & Clyde, and they ported it to the Sega Genesis for which it was published by Sunsoft under license from Audiogenic. The game is a childlike sci-fi fantasy platform game in which players control a little human boy named Bubble along with recent alien acquaintance Squeak. The platform levels are separated by brief underwater scrolling shooter bonus segments.

Description:

The evil Kat of Nine Tails has imprisoned the friendly blue creatures on planet Grool - even chopped off their tails!

Only Squeak escaped the horrifying, tail whacking rampage. Though now the blue being has landed in a strange new world with an even stranger kid named Bubble!

Bubble and Squeak must return to Glool and collect enough gems and coins to make the sinister Kat turn tail and run. But they have to work together!

Kick Squeak into a spinning frenzy to help Bubble overcome obstacles! Help Squeak give Bubble a lift by tossing him high above danger! Then feed Squeak the magic gumballs and ride piggyback to victory!

Bubble and Squeak are poised to pounce on the evil Kat. But alien caverns, snake-infested swamplands and fire-spewing dragons await! And the fur is about to fly!

Plot:

The story takes place on the planet Grool, a planet inhabited by mostly short, anthropomorphous felines. The idyllic and mundane lifestyle of the feline aliens is interrupted when an alien invader known as Kat of Nine Tails kidnaps Grool’s sentient populace, inadvertently leaving one of them, Squeak, behind. Shortly after, Squeak encounters a human boy known only as Bubble who agrees to rescue Grool’s captured populace.

Gameplay:

Players control Bubble and at any time during gameplay they can command Squeak to either ’follow’ or ’wait’ for him. Squeak, who is invulnerable to enemies and enemy fire, has own AI and would help collect items or give Bubble a boost via piggy-back, letting Squeak toss him up to tall heights or by simply standing on top of Squeak’s head. Collectable items include gems, coins, and a submersible icon which is necessary to play the shooter stages; some items can be picked up and carried to other locations such as springs, but the only items the player can pick up in the shooter stages were extra lives and Speed-ups. In both modes of gameplay (collecting and shooting), Bubble is equipped with unlimited ammunition, either stars or torpedoes.
