About Your Average Bear
Your Average Bear is a stealth comedy where you play a black bear in the scenic woods of Your Average Campground. The bear must sneak past campers and rangers to steal human food and deliver it to fellow animal customers.
Developed by Your Average Studio as a University of Utah capstone project, the game features a low‑poly art style and a single‑player experience that blends humor with nature‑themed stealth challenges.
01 / THE GUIDE
Stealth Gameplay
The core loop revolves around evading campers and park rangers while pilfering food. Players must move carefully to avoid detection, using the bear’s natural abilities to stay hidden.
Success depends on timing and route choice, as the goal is to complete each delivery without getting caught. The comedic tone keeps the tension light, encouraging playful experimentation with stealth tactics.
- Observe ranger patrol patterns before making a move.
- Use natural cover like trees to break line‑of‑sight.

Food Delivery App
A unique, animal‑exclusive food‑delivery app lets the bear receive orders from other wildlife. This single app drives the mission objectives, linking each theft to a specific customer.
Delivering the correct treat to the right animal completes the order and advances the game, reinforcing the comedic premise of a bear as a courier.
- Check the order details before heading out to avoid unnecessary trips.
- Prioritize your orders carefully to keep deliveries efficient.

Low‑Poly Art Style
The visual presentation uses a simplified, low‑poly aesthetic that emphasizes the whimsical nature of the setting. Trees, tents, and wildlife are rendered with clean geometry and bright colors.
This style not only supports quick readability during stealth segments but also contributes to the overall comedic atmosphere, making the forest feel both charming and approachable.
- Notice how the simple shapes make enemy sightlines easy to read.
- Appreciate the contrast between the bear’s dark fur and the bright environment.

Single‑Player Experience
Your Average Bear is designed for solo play, allowing the player to progress through deliveries at their own pace. There is no multiplayer component, focusing attention on personal stealth strategies.
The single‑player mode encourages experimentation with routes and timing, as each successful delivery builds a sense of accomplishment without external competition.
- Take time to explore alternative paths after each delivery.
- Use the freedom of solo play to practice tricky evasion spots.
