Very cute game! I included it in my Buddy Up Jam: Winter 2022 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Really cute game! The athmosphere has something of a children's book, really well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The children's book vibe was something we decided early on, nice to hear it showed!

One day bear will eat enough to get over that hill. Nice little game incorporating the theme well!

Developer

Never give up on your big dreams, bear..! Thank you so much :D

Seems that other commenters also ran into some issue playing this game. Man, I wish I could see the bear rolling without the blur, would have been looking real adorable. Either way, the music is fun to listen to, very playful :)

It's too bad really :/ Thanks for playing though, and sweet that you enjoyed the music!

I also had the blurry issue. I'm on chrome. Ran pretty choppy on my laptop.

Developer

Yes, it's a real shame :( Thanks for trying though!

I tried it again on my desktop. Using chrome again and it worked fine!

Developer

Oh, wonderful to hear! :D

Very artistic, I like the visual presentation a lot and the music lends itself well to the charm! It's extremely cute. I would have liked to explore a little more, as I was surprised when it abruptly ended though.

Developer

thanks for the sweet words! we sadly did not have time to implement the whole story we prepared. :c

Nice bear! Enjoyed rolling, just wished I could free roam

Developer

thanks! endless rolling mode would be fun, yes! :D

Absolutely love this game! Such a satisfying feeling to rotate the bear and munch munch munch! Everything about this game is charming from the writing, to the text font, environment, music, and of course the hungry rolling bear! Kudos to everyone on this project, great polish and lots of fun!

Lovely game. The visuals were giga blurry for me, though

seems to be a bug in some browsers, thanks for letting us know!

This is so cute and beautiful and wholesome! Really lovely artwork and generally a pleasant experience <3

I adore games like this. I could really see this being a beautiful narrative story through all sorts of landscapes if you chose to develop further. Unfortunately the game didn't look like it does in the screenshots - everything was blurry which made it difficult to make out what was going on - which I assume is a bug. The writing is lovely though, and it still feels good. I'd love to play it through if you developed further. Hope to see more of rolling bear <3

thanks! and yes, it seems to be a bug in some browsers, thanks for letting us know!

Oh we had a similar problem! Last minute found issues effecting how the player accessed the game, between browsers and also whether they played full screen or not! It's been a learning curve!

I got around 2-3 FPS and couldn't see much. I really wanted to play the game - the title made me smile.

Developer(+1)

yes there seems to be a bug in some browsers, thanks for letting us know!
