Very Good and funny, really enjoyed playng this, only comment is it would be nice to have some sound fx so it is easier to notice if you are hit

alexrose 2012-12-18 08:54

Yeah, I thought that about the sound effects, but I ran out of time before I could add any.

sonnybone 2012-12-18 09:07

OK... SO... THIS IS AWESOME.
The 'puppet on a stick' art style is freakin' astounding. Well animated and hilariously presented. I love it. The attacking is a bit hard to understand and it needs some very obvious sound effects for cues and such. But yeah... awesome innovation here. Great entry!

moomoo112 2012-12-18 10:05

This has to be the most interesting graphics style I've ever seen, nice work

vonzippenstein 2012-12-18 10:14

What SonnyBone said. Everything about this game goes together beautify. Just needs a couple audio cues. Could play as this villain erryday.

I love the art style! I also liked how there are many different enemies, all of them having their own tactic to beat. The Protip thing when dying was a nice idea, really helpful (especially if you didn't want to bother reading the whole entry description before playing ;D). I agree with what the others said about sound effects, I was confused at first when I died because of a piggie-thing. Apart from that, very nice job, well done!

As a game, I don't know... But what a delightful experience. I clicked that mouse like a real MF G.
I gave you 5 stars on all artistic criteria.

blockbrains 2012-12-18 14:10

Really unique style :)

fishbrain 2012-12-18 18:17

haha!... graphics and sound A1!

jlauener 2012-12-18 19:52

Graphically unique. That bear is an epic character, really :)

juniorus 2012-12-18 21:05

Not really hooked by the gameplay but the original graphics(and the nice soundtrack) and the SwaGGG meter put a smile on my face:D

dek 2012-12-18 23:14

Well that was amazing.

bigbadwofl 2012-12-19 05:30

I can really appreciate the effort you put into drawing all those creatures. I also enjoyed the music and the way characters move (on sticks).

pereubu 2012-12-19 20:33

Hilarious idea, i don't have anything more to say than what have been said by the others, great job D:

kharza 2012-12-20 06:28

Haha this really made me laugh

caranha 2012-12-20 15:00

This game has a lot of style! At first I was "WTF", and then I got into the swing of the bear, oh yeah!

But why is the bear coming out of the water? Is it a princess bear or something?

I liked the game! Only complaint is that the relation to the theme was kinda thin.

sonnybone 2012-12-20 19:21

Caranha obviously doesn't know the villainy of #yoloswag

alexrose 2012-12-20 20:37

The whole game idea was actually built around the theme!

You're a gangster bear and you're killing innocent civilians, members of the police and army, superhero lions, vigilante bats and bears who think you've misrepresented their community (originally I was going to have a speech bubble pop up on a stick and say this, but I scrapped the idea).

And the reason the bear is "coming out the water" is because of this:

I didn't expect anyone to get that, but it was funny to me. There's a lot of stuff like that in there.

Oreganik 2012-12-20 23:31

Great potential! Little bug where holding down attack moved me down,seemed to affect my ability to hit, and better feedback would be key. Still! No game HAS EVER looked at the plight of the young and modern urban bear (YAMUB). Congrats.

vandriver 2012-12-21 04:03

ill

char68 2012-12-21 06:10

Wow, I am just blown away by the animations and design of the characters in this game. If there were any way I could give you higher than 5 stars on graphics I would do it. Absolutely amazing. I really look forward to playing more of your games in the future.

dtg 2012-12-21 11:10

Well crafted with an endearing aesthetic.
Interesting typography in the menus.
It is difficult to tell if you are attacking or getting hit at times, a drawback from your art style, perhaps sound effects could have aided with this too.

ace 2012-12-21 11:43

Very nice game, loved the puppet on a stick type of graphics, though it could really use a better attack system. Very confusing how to kill some of the enemies at first.

dray 2012-12-21 22:36

Wow, awesome game, why don't you have more review?! this game is so cool! yeah soundFX and feeback are missing, but not much to make it very cool!

mikemacdee 2012-12-23 02:49

absolutely hysterical. the puppet theme is fantastic and the over-the-top hip-hop music just makes it perfect.

floko 2012-12-23 16:38

The puppet idea was fun, but couldn`t really play it for long. It lacked a bit of feedback so i understand what`s happening . When I attacked , I didn`t really know if I was dealing damage or not. And when I was attacked, I didn`t knew when I was being attacked , and that made it really hard for me to understand when I should dodge or not...
the idea was awesome,but a bit more feedback would be nice =]

sclark39 2012-12-23 17:27

Player feedback in this is awful. I had no idea when I was getting hit vs. when I was successfully attacking. Graphics are amusing but I feel are part of the problem (since if there was an animation associated with attacking / getting hit, it would provide some better communication to the player). The audio was great, and I think the problems I have with it wouldn't be too hard to fix (by just adding some particle fx, sfx, and maybe some movable arms on the bear).

mangosarecool 2012-12-23 23:55

this is so funny so many goats art is great nothing to complain bout this and the bear wears bling

matthias_zarzecki 2012-12-25 13:08

This is lovely! Also, nice choice of music :)

coffeeonimal 2012-12-27 14:27

Love the stick-puppets motif. Really great work.

rawbits 2013-01-06 14:48

Wow, this game is amazing! Awesome idea, funny gfx and good music. Thank you!

Although it needs a hit indicator.

Also I like how Rudey don't like to be evil. :)

alexrose 2013-09-05 02:17

The web version of this has now been relocated to http://vorpal-games.com/rude-bear-1/WebPlayer.html if anyone from the future wants to play it.
