+ | One night, Bugs Bunny is fast asleep in his bed as he starts to drift off into a dream. In his dream, he sees Yosemite Sam experimenting on a "giant carrot serum," but before he can take action, Sam orders the monster Gossamer to fetch the rabbit's brain for his robot, prompting chase. Bugs soon comes across a "Televisor" and is transported to several of his older cartoons. | ||

+ | ==Gameplay== | ||
+ | ===Mega Drive version=== | ||
+ | The game is a platformer played as the rascally rabbit Bugs Bunny. Each level is based on a classic cartoon and has its own special items and goals. Bugs moves with {{left}} or {{right}} and runs by holding {{C}} with a direction. He can only run a short distance before he has to stop and catch his breath. He crouches with {{down}} and jumps with {{B}}. Most enemies can be attacked by jumping on them. Some levels have special weapons that Bugs can use with {{A}}. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Bugs has a health meter depicted as a carrot, which goes down as he takes damage from enemies and hazards. He loses a life when he runs out of health, but he revives instantly if he has extra lives remaining. Some levels also have time limits, and Bugs loses a life and must restart the level if time runs out. | ||
