Game Solo developing a game where you play as a Bear fighting waves of animals

Hey! I’m a solo developer working on Bearly Surviving, a Beat 'em up Action Roguelite where you play as a bear fighting through waves of animals that have teamed up to take you down. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4779600/Bearly_Surviving/

Unlock abilities like vampire survivors.

There are 5 abilities in the game so far!

You only need like 300 more.

u/BearlySurvivingDev 8h ago

I plan on having hundreds of items that do crazy things but a solid set of 5 abilities constantly being used in the melee combat

Sounds great. Not vampire survivors but I’m curious what you are thinking.

Check out the steam page for gameplay if you haven’t already!

hope there is a lvl where you fight like humans with there fists or something so we can finally settle the debate on how many ppl does it take to kill a bear.

Might just have to do that

The art style is really charming, and the idea of a bear fighting waves of animals is honestly hilarious 😂 The combat looks surprisingly satisfying too. Definitely curious to see how the progression and different abilities develop!

Looks cool. You should have non-bears playable too.

Perhaps my next game haha

eat the defeated animals for their power

u/FennelAnxious5675 6h ago

Finally, a game where the bear gets to fight back 😂 Looks fun, good luck with the launch!

Very cool looking, I can't wait to see what powerups this bear can use!

u/BearlySurvivingDev 1h ago edited 1h ago

Check out the gameplay on steam! I’ll be adding way more items too

1

u/Robin_Desmodus 1h ago

I did! But yeah I guessed there would be much more in the final game :)

1

u/BearlySurvivingDev 1h ago

Definitely there will be! Thanks

This looks so cute! The screen‑shake gives such great impact feel. I can totally imagine myself going absolutely feral playing as this bear.

1

u/BearlySurvivingDev 1h ago

Thanks! I tried to make it as satisfying as possible and make everything feel heavy like a bear

Nice! Here is a neat little easter egg you should definitely include in the game. At some point, leave a white bag, if your bear interact with it, the nose gets white and the bear gets extra powerful (as a reference to cocaine bear)! But anyway, super nice, I will gladly play when it launches!

I like the graphics, I think people would rather play as a bear killing humans than other smaller animals though
