Puggsy is a platform game developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Psygnosis in 1993. It follows the character, Puggsy, an orange alien which has been marooned on an alien planet. It was released for the Sega Mega Drive, Sega Mega-CD and Amiga computers. The Mega CD version offers new levels and boss fights, an improved soundtrack and full motion video cutscenes.
The game was notable at the time of release for having an unusual physics system, in which Puggsy must move and utilise various objects to proceed. Pressing will pick up an item; press again to drop. Some items can be used (for example, guns can be shot) with . jumps.
The Puggsy character originally came from a Commodore Amiga demo named "Puggs in Space", which proved to be so successful that an entire game was made out of it. A SNES version of the game was planned, but cancelled, and sequels were supposedly in the works before being axed too.
