Universal Bears vs. Art - (by Halfbrick Studios)

Spend $6 to unlock vip. You won't be disappointed. This makes it so you can play as much as you want and earn tons of coin. I already have maxed out everything. Game is awesome and can't wait for more updates!

 

Thanks for your feedback extreme472000. Also thanks for the nomination for game of the week. It's nice to know people are enjoying the game we have made.

 

I'm still really enjoying this game - have been playing every day since release! I think more costumes would be great. New locations and new enemies as time goes on would also be be very cool. Just more of everything please!

 

I'd like to see new modes, levels, and a better hint system. Also the removal of costume timers (or at least make it always 100% chance) for VIPs and other ways to earn upgrade points would be nice.

 

Thanks for your feedback guys. The hint system has been improved and we will be rolling it out very soon. Pun intended

We are working on improving a lot of areas, so your feedback is very good. Thanks.

 

I'm really enjoying this game. It's good to see the application of the free to play model on something that isn't just another match 3, kingdom builder, or endless runner. I enjoy the puzzle aspect of Bears vs. Art. I haven't spent any real money on it yet, and so far I don't really feel like I need to.

The only thing that I've found frustrating is the chance for success on upgrades. I would be okay with raising the price of upgrades if it was always a success.

Also, it would be nice to have the option of selecting from all the colors I've unlocked on a piece of gear, but I understand this is probably a calculated decision to act as a gold sink.

 

I have to agree with the chance for success on upgrades point - I bought the VIP IAP and it does feel a little off when you're still faced with a 'chance' system. Everything else feels pretty fair for a F2P title, though.

 

Hi guys

Thanks for the feedback about the Chance of upgrades. Are you guys aware at all that you can increase the chance of success but the cost per coins goes up? Is this not apparent to you or do you mean it should always just be fixed at 100% with a set higher cost?

The idea behind this was people could take a gamble and pay much less with a low chance. It was ultimately up to you guys.

We could always default this to 100% as well. Would love to hear your feedback. Cheers

 

I think if you purchase the VIP package you should be able to do costume upgrades with no timers and they always be 100%. It was clear but it's annoying to have to pay for 95% For an upgrade and have the costume upgrade not work

Also on a side note anyone else notice that this thread has said "29 posts" since the game released and it hasn't gone up? Weird.

 

I was leaning more towards fixed at 100% with a set higher cost. It doesn't really feel like something you need to gamble on IMHO. I think it's more of an issue for those of us who've paid for VIP, though.

 

Can anyone tell me if the game ever gets difficult? I have enjoyed playing through to level 40 so far, and only a few of the levels have provided any sort of challenge. Even level 40 was about as simple as you can get, so I would expect more 40 levels in. I am on the fence about unlocking the timer because if the difficulty doesn't ramp up significantly I am not in a hurry to play for long stretches.

 

I answered my own question, the difficulty does start to increase as you move up in to the high 40s and 50s. I ended up uninstalling because the way the monitized the game is crap. There are 25 levels that you have to pay 2 bucks to unlock or get "help" from 3 people on Facebook. So just to get all of the levels and remove the timers you are looking at 9 bucks, which puts this game at a price point with much better, more expansive games like xcom, grim fandango, etc. It is definitely not worth that cost. The timers are annoying and if you don't use Facebook you can pony up 2 bucks for 25 levels, or just not have them. Good luck with this one HB, I doubt I will install anymore of your new games if this is your plan for making money going forward.

 

So the game has started lagging on me really badly. It started around infinite level 375. Now it is near impossible to play and I can't figure out what could be causing it. I have made sure there is plenty of memory and hardly anything running in the background. I'm running it on an iPhone 4s. Any suggestions?

 

Here r sum tips: wait a few mins to see 5+ coins appear on the map. For the anniversary perks i used Grassy Woods lvl #18- Keys to the city. Roary iz @ lvl 5 in his cool Pineapple Suit
