Men with beards have been trying to prove their masculinity by attacking him with their fists for the longest time. Show them who is the boss by taking over their camp.\r\n\r\nI made this game because I feel that bears take a lot of beatings in indie-gaming, so I decided to unleash the feral madness. \r\n\r\nControls:\r\n\r\n< > - Move \r\nSpace - Attack\r\nCtrl - Unleash the special feral AOE attack\r\n\r\nEdit: Thanks to @zenmumbler who was faster at porting the game to MacOs than myself!
