To add onto this, Bubsy is really the purfect IP for a smaller studio like the Demon Turf guys because he has a really unique situation compared to all those other 90s mascots. Most of them while "failed", really didn't do much other than fizzle out and go away because people didn't give a shit about them. Bubsy meanwhile had the explosive diarrhea that was Bubsy 3D which made the IP extremely infamous, but because of that infamy you gain get that cushion of zero expectations, the leeway to take the piss out of the franchise, and the additional marketing of people being shocked that anyone would bother making another Bubsy game in 2025. Compare it to something like when Kao got a reboot, nobody cared nearly as much because that was just one of those okay mascot platformer franchise that did it's thing and then vanished.

If I'm heading an indie studio that's made some solid platformers in the past, I'm fucking salivating at the chance to work with an IP like Bubsy. Nothing but benefits there.
