— Malbear's description, Star.

Malbear is a Bear boss and skin that debuts in BEAR (Alpha) and BEAR*. Malbear released on March 9th, 2020 in BEAR (Alpha), and on July 26th, 2024 in BEAR*, created by PapaDoomsday. Malbear can be obtained by owning the @ badge in BEAR (Alpha), and by owning the X_X badge in BEAR*. As of February 8th, 2022, Malbear is unobtainable in BEAR (Alpha) due to Thomas Racing getting taken down.

Appearance[]

Malbear consists of multiple Window 98 tabs and various images that form the shape of a Bear.

BEAR*[]

In BEAR*, nothing changes physically about Malbear as a whole, except for the fact that the entirety of the skin is 3D.

How to Defeat[]

In the first phase, go on rocks and start shooting Malbear and the enemies. It's recommended to have more players help you. Once the rocks sink, go to another rock. If Malbear uses the bitcoin or head throw at you, move quickly away from the rock and go back. Try to collect the green bitcoin as much as you can. Once you get to phase 2, to avoid the lasers just stay on the rocks or the stairs of the portals.

Attacks[]

Stomp - Malbear will stomp on the ground revealing a red circle. Touching the attack will deal 15 damage.
Mouth - Malbear will throw his mouth. If the mouth bites the player, he will spit them out, flinging the player across the map.
Bitcoin - Malbear will spit out bitcoins at the player. Each coin does 10 or 20 damage. He will also shoot 1 bitcoin every attack, touching the green bitcoin will give about 20 or 30 hp.
Head - Malbear will throw his head at the player and if the head hits the player, it would deal 25 damage. If the player shoots the head while it's decapitated, it will deal 3 times the damage. It will then connect back to the torso.
Lasers - in Malbear's second form, lasers will spawn on the ground. If the player touches the lasers, it will deal 15 damage each.
