Play A Bug's Life (e) Online

A Bug's Life came out for the Nintendo 64 in 1998, developed by Traveller's Tales. It was one of many movie tie-in games from that period, a time when the N64 library was full of 3D platformers trying to capture the feel of their source material. This one put you right into the world of the Pixar film.

You play as Flik, the inventive ant, navigating a series of levels that are huge from an insect's perspective. Your main goal is to gather food for your colony and eventually assemble a fake bird to scare off the menacing grasshoppers. The gameplay involves a lot of climbing tall blades of grass, using your dandelion parachute to glide across gaps, and tossing berries at hostile bugs. You explore areas screen by screen, collecting seeds and other items to progress. The levels are spacious and the platforming can be a bit slippery, making some jumps require careful timing. It feels like a straightforward adventure through a backyard that has been transformed into a vast, sometimes dangerous, landscape.
