In Shady Bears, you will accompany cute and mischievous bears on adventures full of surprises. Get ready to discover the secrets of the bears!

Shady Bears Collection Mechanics

Your basic goal is to be the bear that collects the most acorns, while surviving the time limit.

Acorns act as the player's score.
The player controls the bear moving on 2D platforms, jumping over gaps, and climbing floors to touch and collect acorns scattered around the map.
Areas with a lot of acorns are often difficult to reach or have many obstacles/shadows appearing, forcing the player to weigh the risks and benefits.

The Honey Element

Honey acts as a boost, but comes at a price:

Increase Collection Points

When eating honey, the bear will receive an effect that increases the value of each acorn collected for a short period of time. This is key to achieving high scores.

Activating Danger

At the same time, eating honey will attract a swarm of bees to appear and chase the bear. These bees are a separate danger, forcing the player to collect acorns, avoid the shadow, and run away from the bees chasing them.

Shadow Boost

As you collect more items (especially acorns and honey), the number of shadows chasing you will increase. This quickly turns the screen into a dangerous maze where you have to avoid not just one but multiple copies of your past actions. Any collision between your bear and any shadow will result in the player losing and having to start over.
