Moonbear Smash

By Alex Vasiliu, iOS Solution Architect

iOS gameNo longer on the App Store

Moonbear Smash is an arcade action game centred on a fully animated bear character whose idle, attack, and reaction sequences were crafted frame by frame in SpriteKit. The core loop tasks players with smashing incoming targets in rapid succession, with a combo multiplier that rewards sustained accuracy and resets on a miss, raising the stakes of every streak. AVFoundation drives the sound design, matching each hit and combo milestone with audio feedback that reinforces the physicality of the gameplay and every impact on screen. Levels grow progressively harder by introducing faster targets, tighter timing windows, and new obstacle types that force players to adapt their rhythm under pressure.
