Mr Bear Goes to Washington

A satirical hand-drawn 2D action platformer where a grizzly bear runs, jumps, and mauls his way through enemies in solo or local co-op. Blending fast-paced combat and platforming with a nostalgic, poster-inspired art style, every level feels handcrafted and full of character.

About the Game

He’s just a bear from Montana… but he might be America’s last hope.

Mr Bear Goes to Washington is a hand-drawn 2D action platformer about a grizzly on a patriotic road trip eastward to stop corrupted ex-Nazi scientists and one very power-hungry President. Equal parts satire and side-scrolling action, it’s a journey through an alternate 1940s America where the wildlife fights back.

  • Bite, claw, and body-slam fascists - because diplomacy is for those who can talk, not bears.

  • Travel across a hand-drawn America - from Montana mountains to Midwest farms, Chicago factories, Pittsburgh steel mills, and the steps of the Capitol itself.

  • Uncover secrets and absurd Americana - packed with lots of hidden things to discover and share with friends, just like the games you grew up on.

  • Bring a friend along — Indiana the wolf joins the fight in local co-op.

  • Play inside a poster — inspired by construction paper cutouts and WPA travel prints, the art is nostalgic, beautiful and tongue-in-cheek.

It’s a bear. It’s a road trip. It’s a side-scrolling smackdown of greed, corruption, and anyone foolish enough to stand between Mr Bear and the Capitol steps.
