Procedurally-generated FPS Stuffed launching in Early Access this December
Stuffed, thenew procedurally-generated first-person shooter from UK-based indie Waving Bear Studio, is entering Early Access via Steam on Thursday 9th December 2021. With Stuffed, Waving Bear Studio aims to introduce a new audience to the first-person shooter genre they love, creating an FPS game that can be enjoyed by all ages while still offering a fast-paced and slightly spooky shooting experience.
Stuffed takes place in the dreams of a little girl, Ellie. Players take on the role of Ellie’s teddy bears, defending her from endless waves of nightmares including sinister gnomes, fanged rubber ducks, menacing robots and eerie shadow creatures. At the players disposal is a wide range of unique DIY weapons, ranging from machine guns made from skateboards to shotguns made of wrapping paper and explosives made out of popcorn!
Procedurally generated maps offer players a unique experience every time they play, meaning no two games will be the same. Earn points to level up your bear, open new areas of the map and find new weapons to take out the enemy waves. Stuffed can be enjoyed solo or you can join your friends in up to 4 players online co-op. Players can unlock a range of furs and outfits that can be combined to give your bear a feel that’s unique to you.
Waving Bear Studio is committed to taking a ‘player-first’ approach to development, having put a focus on public betas, gaming conventions and conversations with their various social channels to shape the development of Stuffed up until now. They chose the Early Access route to offer them a chance to work more closely with their community to refine the gameplay experience and shape the future direction of Stuffed. An Early Access Roadmap is available on the Steam page but this is open to change based on community feedback.
The early access version of Stuffed will be available on Steam for the affordable price of just £10.29/$12.99.
“What they have also nailed, based on my hands-on time at EGX, is the super-fluid gameplay and smooth graphics. Tearing around the house, collecting weapons and fending off boss nightmares feels really good, even in this beta phase of development.”

“I had a lot of fun playing Stuffed, and I am confident that anybody who enjoys modern FPS games will love the challenge and the sheer amusement that Stuffed brings to the table.”
– Jordan Smith,

“As a father to 5 gamers, 3 of which regularly ask to play Call of Duty zombies despite being 8+ years too young, Stuffed might be a really great alternative for parents. It’s fast and thrilling but it’s thematically fun for kids to play and likely won’t cause any nightmares.”
