What do you think?

The jumping was a bit quirky at times, but the icebergs were really cool. Good work for just a 48 hour gamejam. Sad to learn all that stuff about polar bears. :(

okarowarrior @okarowarrior

i like the message but kinda cant like the game itself to be that reduntant and excesively dramatic invoking people to say "aww poor bears. you are the better person in the world"

Y U DU DIS OP? ;-;

(Re-added this game due to too many irrelevant comments and discussions about a different game. Let's keep it about The Last Polar Bear this time.)

Made in only 48 hours for The Arbitrary Gamejam 9 (April 2014). The themes of the gamejam were "runner", "expedited", and "decay". There was a special optional bonus rule: "teach something". This game was the winner of The Arbitrary Gamejam 9.

(See all the games from The Arbitrary Gamejam 9 -Judging thread: http://redd.it/22hgp1, submissions thread: http://is.gd/V6Bk23)

This is a blatantly educational 3D Third-Person Endless Runner/Jumper where you are guiding a polar bear and her cub across a dangerous sea of rapidly melting/collapsing/decaying icebergs. It also teaches the player about the effects of expedited global warming on arctic life.
