Chart showing the monthly evolution of Bubsy: Paws on Fire! steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

Considering the 70 reviews, and if it didn't take too long to make the game, Bubsy: Paws on Fire! could be a small indie success. The graph seems to be a long tailed distribution. That sometimes means that the marketing efforts were concentrated on the game launch, and that there was no major update or discounts after.
