About the Game

Take control of a brave bear in this Third-Person Shooter (TPS), in true arcade style. Set in colorful fictional 3D environments, your objective is simple: select your map, choose your difficulty level, and survive the enemies until the stopwatch reaches 0.

SYNOPSIS

The game features a purely arcade-style gameplay structure, accessible directly from the main menu. Players select one of the two available maps from the interface, choose from four difficulty levels, and participate in a timed survival round with a strict 20-minute limit per session. Once the match ends, your final score is calculated based on your eliminations and displayed directly on a results screen before allowing you to return to the main menu.

Game Modes and Maps

The game includes three user-selectable game modes (Survivor, Town and Tournament) and two environments (Moon and Village):

  • Survivor Mode:

    A 20-minute time trial challenge where you'll fight enemies on four selectable difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert).

  • Town Mode:

    A peaceful, combat-free urban environment where you can freely explore the city map, practice your moves, and stroll through the streets without the pressure of enemies or time limits.

    One of the mechanics of Town Mode is the possibility to use OsoTV. By activating any of the multiple screens inside the houses, you can watch random videos.

    There are also some NPCs you can interact with.

  • Tournament:

    The tournament is a special event programmed in the game.

    It only runs on weekends (Saturday-Sunday. UTC).

    In tournament mode, you'll notice that you can't choose the difficulty; it's "expert" by default. You'll also notice that you have double the playing time (40 minutes per match), and the best part is that you have access to 4 additional maps (Fire Station, Forest Tower, Sequoia, and Cave).

    However, you can't choose the map; it will be randomly assigned.

Main Gameplay Mechanics

  • Fluid 3D Movement:

    Run to dodge enemies.

    jump for vertical advantage.

    and crouch to adjust your position.

  • Diverse Combat Arsenal:

    Counterattack with a dynamic combination of melee attacks (machete slashes and kicks) and four different firearms: Pistol, Shotgun, Submachine Gun, and Assault Rifle.

  • Explosive Artillery:

    Equip and throw "duck grenades" to inflict massive area damage or damage on groups of enemies.

  • Game Items:

    Stay alive by constantly moving around the arena to collect ammo boxes and burgers that restore your character's health.

  • 3D Comic Effects:

    Each successful attack triggers classic comic-style visual onomatopoeia like "BOOM!", "POW!", or "OMG!" that appear floating directly in the game's three-dimensional space.

  • Full Controller Compatibility:

    Instant plug-and-play compatibility with standard mouse and keyboard setups, as well as modern controllers (Xbox and PlayStation controllers).

EnemiesĀ 

Face off against four types of enemies:

  • Ducks:

    Annoying ranged attackers that fire egg-like projectiles from afar to whittle down your health.

  • Dobermans:

    Fast and aggressive ground pursuers that charge in a straight line directly at the player's position.

  • Cannons:

    Fixed, static turrets that pressure your movement by firing heavy, long-range projectiles.

  • Ties:

    They are relentless land pursuers that follow you tirelessly; they compensate for their low individual attack power with high aggression and persistence.

IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE

The Tournament button is only active on weekends (Saturday and Sunday, UTC). On all other days of the week, the button will be disabled in the game menu (you won't see it).

The four additional maps (Fire Station, Forest Tower, Sequoia, and The Cave) are not included in the base game; they only appear in Tournament Mode and are randomly assigned (you can never choose which map you will play on in Tournament Mode).

If you want to select any of the four additional maps (Fire Station, Forest Tower, Sequoia, and The Cave) to play in Survivor Mode on any day of the week, you must purchase the TomyTrouble - Additional Maps Pack DLC.
