Bear Chuck is mash of concepts that can be best described as Angry Birds meets Super Puzzle Fighter with a good dose of Bomberman thrown in. It’s also in super early alpha prototyping, so it’ll probably become even more :)

Do you remember those days when you were up into the wee hours, battling tooth and nail with your friend sitting right next to you on mad frantic games like Puyo Puyo? Tetris Attack? Bomberman? Bear Chuck is one of those couch versus games where the stakes are high, the action is fast, and skills make ‘em SCREAM – and come back for more! Boom! BOOM! BOOM BOOM BOOM! ARRRRGHGHHH F**K YOUUUUU!!

As I’m mostly focusing on mechanical prototyping for the moment, I’ve not gone into graphical polish much yet, and as such a few bits are borrowed from elsewhere (Thanks gorgeous Metal Slug explosions!). All observations and feedback welcome!

Controls (I just realised I've failed to keep the control screen in this build, oops):

Mouse + Keyboard:
Click to pick up, release to throw.
Move mouse to aim.
A and D to move/climb left and right.
Gamepad:Any shoulder button to pick up, release to throw.
Move right stick to aim.
Left and right dpad or left stick to move/climb left and right.

Stuff I'm still working on:
☑ AI opponent
☐ Better AI opponent
☐ Score system
☑ Combo/chain system
☐ Much improved graphics and theme
☐ Different characters with different abilities
☐ Single player tutorial into levels with…
☐ Boss battles!
☐ General polish!

All questions, feedback, bugs, comments suggestions, hate mail, ransom letters and bear thoughts welcome (and reuqested!) :D
