Gameplay
In Putty, the player controls a blue blob with eyes. Putty has many moves that he could use to attack enemies or to navigate around the level. These abilities include being able to stretch out upwards, downwards, left and right to access far-off ledges. He also has the ability to inflate.
This allows him to provide a cushioned landing for any falling bots. Over-inflation also acts as a "smart bomb", with Putty bursting, killing all of the enemies on the screen, whilst reducing his health in the process.
Story
Putty Moon, the place where Putty lives, has been taken over by an evil wizard named Dazzledaze. Dazzledaze planned to capture the Putties and ship them to Earth as gum. To save his friends and oust the evil wizard, Billy Putty enlists the help of some robots ("bots") to build a skyscraper that will reach up to Putty Moon.
Legacy
The sequel Putty Squad was initially only released for Super NES and only in PAL territories. It features Putty fighting alongside nemesis Dweezil the cat against other mischievous enemies to rescue other red putties. It also features a two-player mode, with the second player taking control of a red putty. Versions of the game were completed and reviewed, but not published, for the Amiga and the Sega Mega Drive, with only a demo version for the Amiga being released on two magazine covermounts.
The complete Amiga version was finally released in December 2013 as a free Christmas gift from System 3, available on their website. The Mega Drive version was also released in October 2015 by a Sega-16 user who get hold of a working prototype. An MS-DOS version was also projected by System 3 and a demo version was released on magazine disks, but in the end this version was not even finished by the developer. A new version of Putty Squad was released for PSVita, PS4, PS3, 3DS, Windows 8 and Xbox Live Arcade in 2013 and 2014.
