Sylvester & Tweety: Breakfast on the Run, known as Looney Tunes: Twouble! in North America, is a 2D and isometric, pseudo-3D platform video game developed by Bit Managers and published by Infogrames for the Game Boy Color in 1998. It features the Looney Tunes characters Sylvester and Tweety. Other Looney Tunes include Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Granny, Hector the Bulldog and Taz.
The player controls Sylvester and navigates him through 5 levels, which are divided into 2 parts (2D Mode and 3D Mode). [2] Sylvester tries to capture Tweety while avoiding enemies and obstacles. Key items can be stored in the inventory and combined to make a helpful, new item if the player has the right combination. A password system is used to save progress.
IGN gave it a rating of 5/10. [3] Los Angeles Times remarked “an adventure-style game that lacks almost any redeeming quality.” [4]
Tweety is a yellow canary in the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of animated cartoons.

His characteristics are based on Red Skelton's famous "Junior the Mean Widdle Kid." He appeared in 46 cartoons during the golden age, made between 1942 and 1964.
Sylvester J. Pussycat Sr. is a fictional character, an anthropomorphic cat in the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons.
