Rightfully, Beary Arms is a bullet hell shooter coming later this year
from Daylight Basement Studio. This is being shown off next week at PAX East,
but there's also a playable Windows demo right now
on
Steam. The
PAX East 2023 shows off the game's retro graphics and the kind of carnage a
bear with a gun can wreak. Here's word:
Honey, we're home and we brought
plenty of ammunition! Guide Beary, a gun-toting teddy on a mission to purge
waves of wacky alien scum. Navigate the open cosmos in true dungeon-crawling
fashion. Cock a weapon of choice to obliterate mobs of sneaky space spiders,
pistol-wielding bumble bees, and fierce Yellow Jacket bosses, each with unique
traits in this lively 2D top-down adventure.
Strategically plan a path to success fursomely clearing rooms of mobs, in cute
fuzzy style. Unleash a bearrage of lead and lasers, eliminating waves of
aggressively quirky creatures to the beat of an original chiptune nu-metal
soundtrack. When the dust settles, pawcure random loot drops carrying honey
money, barbearic buffs, weapons, and other helpful items.
As Beary grows stronger, so do his interstellar foes. Select the ways in which
enemies level up, then rise to the occasion as they gain new factions, higher
health, increased accuracy, and other traits to be reckoned with. Once your
piggy bank is full, hit the shops to amass a destructive armory including a
Mosin-Nagant bolt-action rifle, FoamBall gun, Finger gun, Catling Gun to shoot a
flurry of rainbow lasers, and more.
