Mediocre platformer/shooter
In Buck Bumble, you play as a superbee. You fly through levels, shoot enemies, and place bombs. The flying aspect is fun, the boss fights are enjoyable, and there is a multiplayer mode available. However, the controls are not optimal, which is crucial in a flying game. Additionally, the game doesn't really excel in other areas. So, it's a fun but very mediocre game.
