Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout (Happy Birthday Bugs in Japan) (Bugs Bunny Blowout in Europe) is a game released for the Famicom and Nintendo Entertainment System.
Story[ | ]
The game is a side-scrolling adventure game where you control the famous Warner Brothers cartoon character, Bugs Bunny, on a quest to get to his 50th birthday party. He is armed with a mallet that he can swing at various enemies to defeat them, deflect certain projectiles or destroy bricks. He can also collect hearts to restore his health and carrots for bonus points. At the end of each level, Bugs Bunny had to use his mallet to defeat a Warner Brothers cartoon character such as Foghorn Leghorn, Sylvester, or the Tasmanian Devil. These other Looney Tunes characters are trying to stop Bugs because they are all jealous that Bugs gets all the attention.
Gameplay[ | ]
The game was similar to the popular Super Mario Bros. video games in terms of its cartoony graphics and limited violence.
Bugs Bunny's abilities include: jumping, diving into holes, and using his mallet as a form of attack. He can also land on top of enemies without getting damaged.
