History VideoGame / NaughtyBear

* DropTheHammer: One of the many tools of mayhem you can wield is a large mallet. Unsurprisingly, its Ultra Kill involves reducing the unlucky victim's head to the approximate flatness of a pancake.

''Naughty Bear'' is a 2010 action game developed by Artificial Mind & Movement (later known as Creator/BehaviourInteractive) and published by Creator/FiveZeroFiveGames for the UsefulNotes/Xbox360 and UsefulNotes/PlayStation3. The game tells a story about Naughty Bear, a teddy bear who is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin very naughty]]. There's a birthday party on the [[SugarBowl Island of Perfection]], and Naughty is not invited. Upset by this, he decides to exact revenge on everyone on the island by scaring the fluff out of them and/or killing them.

* CoolGuns: Magnum, Uzi and a RayGun, just to name a few.

** The Episode 8 DLC introduces the "[[Franchise/XMen X-Bears]]", who fall somewhere between this and AffectionateParody: superpower-wielding crimefighters with names such as [[ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} Bearverine]], [[ComicBook/IronMan Iron Bear]] and [[ComicBook/TheFlash The Flare]].

In October 31, 2023, Behavior Interactive would reference their roots by adding Naughty Bear to VideoGame/DeadByDaylight as a Visceral Legendary outfit for
the Trapper (even featuring the Narrator). Watch the trailer for the cosmetic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOUNI7hkq4I here]].

** The other bears vary from being petty and unpleasant [[KickTheDog dog-kickers]] (Daddles, Giggles, most of the bears) to outright villains ([[MadScientist Episode 6 Fluffy]], [[DealWithTheDevil Episode 10 Stardust]]), so it's pretty hard to feel bad for them when Naughty goes on a rampage.

* BigBrotherIsWatching: One level starts with Naughty discovering the VictimOfTheWeek is strapping cameras to the heads of birds in order to spy on him. Even the name of the level, ''Big Ted Is Watching'', sort of tips one off.

** [[spoiler:The bears' KickTheDog moment at the end ''after'' Naughty went out of his way to save them all from the [[AliensAreBastards invading alien-bears]] audibly disgusts him, and he seems legitimately concerned for Naughty's emotional state after they KickTheDog and reject him yet again.]]

* GoodOldFisticuffs: Executing somebody unarmed is no harder than with a weapon.

* GroinAttack: Naughty Bear can kick other bears in the crotch... or whack them there with an axe during a kill animation. It even works on robots.

* HarmlessElectrocution: Subverted; all the bears can be electrocuted by tampering with an item [Arcade machine, Conveyor belt computer, DJ booth, Power supply, TV] and shoving them into the exposed wires while they attempt to repair it.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Naughty is often killing the other bears, but considering how nastily the bears treat him ([[UngratefulBastard even after he saves them from their own mistakes]]), it's hard to feel sorry for them. [[spoiler:After the incident with the party above, Naughty responds by launching an RPG into their cabin (killing everyone again) before returning to his hut.]]

** [[spoiler: Reaching HundredPercentCompletion unlocks a sequence in which Naughty seemingly suffers from one, dreaming that he's a Unibear having his horn cut off by Daddles. Dream-Naughty abruptly awakes and begins to advance on a suddenly-fearful Daddles, only for him to trip and awake in the real world as regular Naughty. Confused, Naughty looks down to the floor, revealing he was {{Sleepwalking}} and tripped over a saw on the floor before he slowly raises a hand to his head.]]

* NeckLift: The Vampiricorn's signature kill (in story and multiplayer) involves lifting a bear up by the neck, then biting their throat and draining their body of fluff.

* PaperThinDisguise: Most of Naughty's 'disguising' skins are this. Sheriff Naughty is a particularly obvious example -- it's just Naughty wearing a cheesy fake moustache, a cardboard box with the word "POLICE" scrawled on it in marker, and a lamp strapped to his head.

* RedRightHand: Naughty is missing a huge chunk of his left ear.

* TakingOverTheTown: A one-teddy version; some players attempt this by sinking the boat, [[VehicularSabotage disabling the car]] and phones and setting up traps at the dock that the police use. This is usually successful at keeping the others from escaping.

* {{Unicorn}}: The Unibear serves as this, being a grey-white bear with a fluted horn that's described as being "mythical" and one of the purest creatures of the Island.

* YourHeadAsplode: Unarmed bears that are DrivenToSuicide will make their own heads inflate and burst.
* ZombieApocalypse: In "Night of the Living Ted", Nibbles accidentally summons the Zombears by reading a cursed book. The episode revolves around Naughty slaughtering his way through the Zombear hordes while destroying the book's pages to undo the summoning.

* AntiHero: Naughty stops a zombie outbreak and an alien invasion and also stops Fluffy from inadvertently destroying the universe with his experiments.

** A two-fold example during [[spoiler: the ending.]] The bears seem to be throwing a party to [[spoiler: celebrate Naughty beating back the Alien invasion and have seemingly accepted him for once]], but then [[spoiler: they smash the cake into his face and run him off, laughing at him all the way. Following this KickTheDog moment, Naughty is shown from the back, seemingly crying to himself in the woods as the Narrator gently asks if he's alright; Naughty promptly turns around, revealing that he's been loading a [[{{BFG}} RPG-7]] and is aiming it at the cabin where the bears are.]]

* {{BFG}}: [[spoiler: Naughty Bear gets his hands on an RPG-7. And he uses it in the ending cinematic as revenge.]]

* ChallengeRun:
** Beating the main "story" level unlocks four "challenge" versions of it, which you can then beat to unlock new costumes and reach HundredPercentCompletion.
*** [[LeaveNoSurvivors Killer Challenge]]: ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Every bear on the level has to die, not just the [[ArcVillain episode villain]], and no-one can be allowed to escape. If the bears manage to call for help, the poor schmucks answering their call have to die as well.
*** [[PacifistRun Friendly Challenge]]: Don't fight them! You're not allowed to strike, shoot, or SetAMookToKillAMook -- doing so means an instant loss. However, traps, super-scaring an insane bear [[DrivenToSuicide into suicide]], or [[FinishingMove ultra-killing]] a bear wounded by a trap are all fine.
*** [[DrivenToMadness Insanity Challenge]]: Drive them all mad! Killing a bear who hasn't gone insane is an instant failure, as is [[SetAMookToKillAMook letting non-insane bears kill each other]], but once they're insane it's open season on the poor, deranged sods.
*** [[OneHitPointWonder Untouchable Challenge]]: Naughty's health is limited to the absolute minimum, turning all attacks into {{One Hit Kill}}s. Other than that, the level plays as normal. Better be good at dodging!
*** [[DontLookAtMe Invisible Challenge]]: Don't be seen doing naughty deeds. If you get spotted five times, it's an instant GameOver, so pack your best costume and sabotage everything you can get your hands on.
*** [[TimedMission Speed Run Challenge]]: Complete the main level's objectives while on a time limit. Fast costumes and frozen multiplier bars are your greatest friends here, as they'll let you hit the score needed to open the next area quicker.
*** [[HarderThanHard Top Hat Challenge]]: This is going to be painful. All the bears have beefed-up health and wield powerful {{Ray Gun}}s rather than their usual weapons, as well as sporting rather stylish top hats. Your goal is to find the story mode antagonist (identified by a snazzier, unique top hat) and kill them.

* DeathTrap: The bear traps and mines can become this if you choose to deliver an Ultra Kill, with Naughty either [[NeckSnap snapping the victim's neck]] or [[GroinAttack kicking them in the family jewels]] , causing the mine to blow them up.

* EvenEvilHasStandards:

** [[spoiler: The bears' KickTheDog moment at the end ''after'' Naughty went out of his way to save them all from the [[AliensAreBastards invading alien-bears]] audibly disgusts him, and he seems legitimately concerned for Naughty's emotional state.]]

* EverybodyDiesEnding: [[spoiler: After the bears publicly humiliate Naughty one final time - despite him saving them from their mistakes yet again - he waits for them to gather in their cabin before launching a RPG into it, blowing all of the bears up at a stroke.]]

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: You can step on your own bear traps and land mine if you're not careful.

* KickTheDog: Many of the bears' actions towards Naughty fall into this category, ranging from Chubby and Giggles mocking Naughty after he tried to be friendly for once to [[spoiler: inviting him to a party after he saved them all only to smash a cake into his face and run him out of the gathering, all while laughing at him]]. This almost invariably results in a case of TheDogBitesBack, as Naughty swiftly replies to their abuse of him with violence.

** The ''[[Literature/TheRing Ring]]'' trailer features Naughty recreating the iconic "crawling out of the television" scene, scaring a sleeping Giggles into waking up. The ''Jaws'' trailer features a massive Naughty attacking a boat with Daddles and Trembles on it, with Naughty brutally biting Daddles to death before dragging him into the water as he retreats; cut to Daddles [[CatapultNightmare jerking awake]], then breathing a sigh of relief as he realises it was AllJustADream. [[spoiler: And ''then'' cue the real Naughty exploding out of the water behind him and dragging Daddles to an unknown, but presumably grisly fate.]]

** The Alien-Bears all lack fur of any kind, instead having a smooth, greenish-yellow 'skin' and much larger, pitch-black eyes. They also leak a similarly-coloured foamy substance rather than regular fluff. This is presumably to play up their alien appearance next to the regular bears, fitting their theme,

* SugarApocalypse: Perfection Island is a pretty SugarBowl full of cute bears, happy wildlife, and sweet confectionaries. It's also home to a psychotic SerialKiller who regularly goes on rampages, the bears are all arseholes who love BullyingADragon, and at least three apocalypses [[note]]Nibbles accidentally causing the Night of the Un-Ted, Fluffy's Zero-Point Quantum Grid Resonator-using Superbrain, and Emperor Xoon's AlienInvasion[[/note]] have to be averted during the game's events.

** In the ending, [[spoiler: the other bears invite Naughty to a celebration. As soon as he gets there, they smash a cake into his face and laugh at him, without trying to kill him or anything. [[EverybodyDiesEnding No surprises as to what happens next]].]]
* UnexpectedKindness: At the end of the game after Naughty has saved the island from the aliens, the bears who usually mistreat him hold a ceremony for him, and the narrator notes that this is quite a surprise. Naughty appears to be surprised and touched by this. [[spoiler: It's soon subverted when [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk one of them throws a cake right in Naughty's face and the others laugh at him]], meaning that they only brought him here to set him up for humiliation and [[UngratefulBastard they are not the least bit grateful for what he's done]].]]

** This is practically enforced by the Insanity Challenge -- the ''only'' way to proceed is to torment every bear on the level until they go insane.

* ZombieApocalypse: In "Night of the Living Ted", when Nibbles accidentally summons the Zombears by reading a cursed book.
