About

Battle Bears -1 is a single player action adventure game. It was developed by SkyVu and was released on December 23, 2020. It received overwhelmingly positive reviews from players.

Battle Bears -1 is a quirky 3D shooter game with humor-filled campaigns, giant bosses, and a variety of eccentric weapons. Players control Oliver, Riggs, or Wil, defending the Ursa Major spaceship from bizarre cosmic enemies.

  • music
    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Shame since this soundtrack is great.”
    • “But overall, if the stutters and weird pitch shift of the music is gone, it's definitely a great way to goof off with this game.”
    • “The music actually loses its pitch over time, becoming more and more distorted by the end of a level.”
    • “I have both music and SFX up to max, but sometimes I'll open the pause menu and see that they've changed to a lower volume, seemingly all on their own.”
    • “Only issue I've had so far is that music seems to distort in-game sometimes.”

  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally well-received, with strong shooting mechanics and charming cutscenes; however, transitions between gameplay and cutscenes can be glitchy, and some users express disappointment over the absence of RPG upgrade mechanics from the Android version. Additionally, minor issues like the mouse cursor remaining on screen after unpausing detract from the experience. Overall, the gameplay holds up well despite these flaws.

    • “But to be totally honest, I think the gameplay and cutscenes have held up fine.”
    • “Still a very good game, the shooting mechanics are really good and the cutscenes are really charming.”
    • “- Transitions from gameplay to cutscenes (and vice-versa) are generally really glitchy looking.”
    • “- Unpausing with Esc will leave your mouse on the screen in gameplay.”
    • “It's a bit of a shame that they didn't make a game mode with the RPG upgrade mechanics from the Android port.”

However, some still experience bugs, particularly on the iOS version, which has been affected by compatibility issues with 32-bit games. Despite these concerns, players find the game enjoyable.

    • “I love this game to death, but I needed some way to let the devs know how buggy it can be.”
    • “Especially when the iOS version was buggy, but even then you can barely catch it when Apple keeps messing over 32-bit games.”
