• Thank you! - 21 September 2025

  Hey everyone, After a long run in Early Access, I’m excited to announce that Bearzerk is officially launching out of that phase. A final small patch is on the way to squash a few bugs and polish up what we’ve done so far, and then that’s it: Bearzerk hits its “full launch” milestone. I want to take a moment to say thank you. If you backed, played, tested, shared feedback, or just hung around, it all meant a lot. I’m really proud of what Bearzerk became: the world, the atmosphere, the art, the ideas. It’s been a journey. That said, I also have to be honest. Interest didn’t grow in the way I’d hoped. Sales weren’t massive. The scope I initially envisioned, grand and ambitious, isn’t something that seems sustainable for the return. After weighing things out, it’s not worth stretching myself thin on a project that isn’t getting the traction to support it long term. So Bearzerk reaches its n…

• Patch Notes – July 25: "Numbers Go Up" Edition - 26 July 2025

  Player stats now shown in the between-round item menu Selecting an item/weapon shows how it affects your stats Most requested feature so far—now live! Under the hood: a ghost test-bear simulates the stat changes for preview Hey everyone! Still plugging away here—it's been 11 days since launch, one hitbox-fixin’ patch later, and now I’ve got something new for all you min-maxing chaos enthusiasts: The between-round item menu now shows your player stats—so you can finally answer life’s most important question: “Wait… what even is my crit chance right now?” Even better, when you select an item or weapon, the game now previews how it’ll affect your stats before you buy it. This has been, by far, the most requested change, and I totally get it—guessing how a 12% Attack Speed boost interacts with your current build was not exactly ideal. Now, you can make smarter decisions, regret different th…

• Patch Notes – July 25: “Whiff This” Edition - 24 July 2025

  Hitboxes tightened for both mobs and players Collisions should now feel more fair and intuitive New audio cue when taking damage Hey everyone! Quick update today focused on something many of you pointed out (and I very much agreed with): Hitboxes were chonky. Like, "why did I take damage from that dude’s toenail grazing my scalp" kind of chonky. This patch tightens up hitboxes across the board—player and mobs alike—so collisions should now feel a lot more fair and readable. Specifically, I’ve adjusted the collision shapes to better match the visible sprite bounds, especially vertically. In 2D games like Bearzerk, everything collides in screen space, not depth. So when the bottom of an enemy overlaps the top of your head, it’s technically a “hit,” even if it visually feels like you were on different planes. That’s what was happening before. It felt off. It was off. That’s fixed now. Also…

• Bearzerk Has Officially Launched into Early Access - 15 July 2025

  Hey there, chaos connoisseurs!Pinch me (but not too hard, I’m delicate): Bearzerk is now LIVE on Steam Early Access! The caffeine-fueled, plush-shredding dream is finally real, and you can jump in right now to join the fuzzy mayhem. The Road AheadEarly Access is only the first paw print on our honey-sticky journey. Over the coming months I’ll be adding working on a roadmap of additional contents and bosses. There's a lot of stuff in the works and while I won't spoil too much too early, let's just say the first content patch will bring more weapons, more characters, more enemies and a new kind of map that is a bit more... floaty? Your feedback will drive every tweak, polish pass, and outrageous idea. Leave thoughts, memes, or carrier-pigeon messages (seriously, I read it all, probably at 3 a.m.). Thank You, You Beautiful ManiacsI’m one person with a dream, a bucket of espresso, and a swo…

• 🎉🐻 Bearzerk Early Access: COMING SOON! 🐻🎉 - 28 March 2025

  Hey there, fellow chaos enthusiasts! I'm beyond excited (and mildly terrified) to announce that Bearzerk is coming soon to Early Access on Steam! As a one-person team fueled entirely by caffeine and questionable life choices, I can't wait to kick off this wild adventure with you all. Early Access means you'll get a front-row seat to the delightful madness as the game grows, breaks, improves, and evolves—hopefully in that order! If you're as pumped as I am (or even mildly intrigued), please wishlist, follow, like, share, shout from the rooftops, or send carrier pigeons—every bit of support helps immensely. Let's get weird, let's get fluffy, and let's make something hilariously awesome together! Stay tuned, and see you soon for the plushy apocalypse! Feel free to stop by on Discord or Reddit – Your friendly neighborhood solo dev
