Spread love through hugs! You're a forest bear which carries a curse. Your oxygen comes from people's hug with you, problem is that you're still a bear and if you hug someone for too long, it'll be dead in no time. In order to break your curse and make the world a better place, hug the old corporate owner in the center of the city, who has no love in his heart at all.

This game was made during the Molyjam competition (Game Jam with 48 hours duration in which you should create a game based on one of Peter Molydeux's tweets, a parody of Peter Molyneux, for more info google 'Molyjam'). The tweet we choosed was: "You are a bear but for some reason your oxygen comes from hugging people. Problem is that hugging people breaks their bones."

We enjoyed the result, and decided to post it here. We hope you enjoy it too.

We still can't believe it! "Daily 4th Place", "Frontpage Featured Games of May" and thousands of views! This is a lot more then what we were expecting! Thank you very much, guys! :D

We don't pretend to change anything in the game, the intention here was to show what we've managed to create during the game jam. Though, in a last modification I've added some more instructions about volume control and how to pause the game, which already was possible before since it's a flixel default feature. Sorry, our bad, we forget about letting it clear.

Thanks for your comments, we've read them one by one. And again, we thank you all for playing.

Nice concept

I love the whole idea here especially with Hugs and a bear form that was pretty good, A well engineered game you have here but it was a very good game to start off with anyways I must say this was a pretty fantastic game for the mostpart it was a highly entertaining game, nice graphics some fun gameplay and just a good game

~X~

its a good game, but i wanted to have a "genocide" run in the game

Cute game! Not sure how the scoring of the final hug works! Any clue on the secret medal?

It reminded me of one of the new pokemon in Pokemon Sun and Moon. It's so cute!

It's fun and cutesy at first, but gets exhausting and boring when you start going after the medals.
