The Simpsons: Bug Squad is an unreleased tech demo for the Sega Dreamcast. The game was developed by Red Lemon Studios for Fox Interactive. Whilst the game is unreleased, the date on the title screen suggests it was developed in 2000.

Details

On December 19, 2020, a user called sreak on the Dreamcast-talk forums released the contents of a broken DevKit via the forum. Among the contents was a game called The Simpsons: Bug Squad. The game was then made to run by a user called Megavolt85, and was then played by the YouTube channel DreamcasticChannel. The game is incomplete and very bare bones, seeming to be a tech demo.^[1]

Gameplay

Gameplay seems to be very simplistic. You play as a bug jumping around the Simpson house. The kitchen and living room are explorable. Homer walks around the house although he doesn't interact with the player character at all.^[2]
