Buck Bumble is one of those weird, late-90s N64 gems that somehow makes being a cyborg bee with a machine gun feel completely natural. You zip around these bright, blocky fields dodging mutant wasps and blasting everything that moves—it’s chaotic in the best way. The controls take a second to click (you’re a bee, after all), but once you get the hang of barrel rolls and strafing, it’s stupidly satisfying.
What really sticks with me is the soundtrack—that funky techno theme song is burned into my brain forever. The missions mix dogfighting with some light exploration, and yeah, the story’s basically "bugs gone bad, go shoot ‘em," but who cares when you’re dive-bombing a spider tank? It’s janky in places, but that just adds to the charm. Definitely a cult favorite for a reason.
