JIt was not easy to be a SEGA Saturn fan.Finally, SEGA published Realtime Associates' Bug!, which starred a sassy insect with the kind of 'tude that helped make Sonic famous in the first place. In the summer following the surprise launch, SEGA slipped out a gorgeous 2D side-scrolling platformer named Astal which promptly (and criminally) floated into obscurity. Launching alongside the Saturn was Clockwork Knight, a clever, whimsical 2.5-D platformer that never caught on like it should have.
