Evaluation
Your Average Bear is a student capstone project developed by a team at the University of Utah's EAE Program as part of their 2022–2023 capstone course. The game launched on April 25, 2023. In the launch announcement on April 26, 2023, the developers were candid and clear: the full release represented their "full debut," and while they expressed ongoing passion for the game and openness to bug reports, they described this release as wrapping up their major polishing work. There are no DLC listings, no roadmaps, no announced future content, and only two news posts — both from launch week. This is consistent with a finished student project that shipped as a complete product. No further developer communication has occurred since April 2023.

About this game
Your Average Bear is a stealth comedy about a black bear trying to sneakily part campers from their food. This game was developed as part of the University of Utah's EAE Program 2022-2023 Capstone Course, in which students form small studios and develop a game from start to finish, ideation phase to full release, in only two semesters.
After moving into the scenic woods of Your Average Campground, this black bear needs to prove himself to his new neighbors, and what better way to do so than to bring them the human foods their hearts desire? With the use of an animal-exclusive food-delivery app, take orders from your fellow animals, use your tools to evade campers and rangers, steal the delectable treats, and bring them back to your creature customers, all without getting caught! Are you up to the challenge?
