RUDE BEAR ROLLOUT
=================

Rude Bear's been enjoying his retirement! Maybe a little too much!

Unfortunately.. it seems like someone's been at the fridge

Time to find some food to eat!

Your jumps are angled from the surface you come from! Remember that! I told you!

==== HOW TO PLAY ====

Roll around, bounce around, Loco Roco it up!

=== CONTROLS ===

Using Rewired which nowadays is sabotaged by Steam, I suggest you shut down Steam if your controller doesn't fully work
(But I expect it to work here tbh because it's only A and stick)


Keyboard:
Space = Jump
Left/Right or A/D = Move
Hold Space = Crouch and Charge Jump
Your jump is angled from the surface you jump from

Xbox controller:
A = Jump
Left Stick = Move
Hold A = Crouch and Charge Jump
Your jump is angled from the surface you jump from

Dualshock:
X = Jump
Left Stick = Move
Hold X = Crouch and Charge Jump
Your jump is angled from the surface you jump from

== Background ==
This is the 30th Ludum Dare extended Rude Bear universe game, wow! The theme was "Limited Space"

A jam game by Alex Rose, Lowri Bowden and John Pennington.

Rude Bear was created by Alex Rose and Antony Dewar.

Loved the intro, great way of telling a "story". Had a big smile going around as a "jelly bear". The arrows helped me out to know which direction to go in. I felt crouching didn't do a lot compared to finding a good slope. But overall I had a great time playing this. Nice concept.

Fun game! Movement and physics are hard to get used to but it brings satisfaction on overcoming obstacles. Good story too.

It was super fun! Animations, humor, gameplay, everything is on top!!! I kindly ask you to make shift acceleration in the next version of the game, otherwise it’s just a bomb!!!

Absolutely glorious, a blast to play through, a bit of a shame that the theme wasn't used more because imo that could have been a perfect entry. Hoping to see more from this dev !

This was quite a funny experience, the graphics and audio are very well polished and the controls were tight. It was quite easy to move through the environments. The game was a bit longer than I anticipated though, I think the pacing could be improved by having less down-time between key platforming segments, and the theme could've been used a bit more in my opinion. I also had to make several leaps of faith due to the very small camera size and just trust that I was going to end up in the right spot. Other than that the game was great, good job!

It was really funny seeing Rude Bear's dumb face as he's rolling around. The body is often glitching out, but that's understandable considering it was made in 72 hours, and it adds to the humor. The jumping mechanic is fun, and there are some tight jumps which make it challenging. My only complaint is, maybe not make the player walk all the way back for missing a difficult jump. Another banger, Alex.

@sheepolution yeah the reason I had to make you walk all the way back up is it's really hard to make it so you can get back up to the previous platform without making it also possible to jump up to the next platform unless I make the jumps really tight. maybe I should've added a conveyor belt to get you back faster haha

Really enjoyed it! A simple take on a platformer but feels so different from other games. The music is a cut above too

Really enjoyed the intro cutscene, and the liquid bear was just hilarious. Just a really enjoyable entry to play. Great work!

VERY well done! Polished and funny idea. Puzzles are interesting. It feels like getting over it. I really like the little details with the bear's feet coming out in air, where his face is facing, all these little things that make it feel more alive. I love the story board scenes and the transitions. Excellent!

It's always a pleasure to dive into another rude bear game, a Ludum Dare tradition that never disappoints and this entry was no exception. I was hoping to be able to eat rad boar at the end, thus getting all my stolen food back :smile:

The physics were very cool, impressive work! My favorite part was the intro comic strip sequence, which was glorious!

All in all, another fantastic addition to the 'rude bear' tradition. Well done

The song is cool and I really like the game. The idea is a bit silly but that also made me come back to this game. Well done and now everyone knows: bears are basically fluids.

Ha this is like the Foddian version of Loco Roco! Fun level design and nice work on the softbody physics. I wish the camera zoomed out when I increased in size but it was very funny to see myself take up the entire screen! Music was funny but I wish it was more than a remix of the original loco roco music. Overall great work!

Haha, as usual, this is dope. Such a silly little idea that really well done! Heavy metal Splatoon music is also amazing! Sometimes got a little difficult to build up momentum but what do I expect for a fat Sonic the Hedgehog-esque game! Haha amazing as usual!
