About Gummy Cat

Gummy Cat is an independent game development studio based in Bucharest, Romania. Established as a game development operation in 2019, it creates original games with an emphasis on cozy management simulations, narrative adventures, hand-drawn visuals and character animation.

Its debut commercial title, Bear and Breakfast, combines property management with a story-driven woodland adventure. Players take the role of Hank, a bear who builds and decorates bed-and-breakfast properties in the woods. The project brings together the studio’s interests in approachable management systems, distinctive characters and comedic dialogue.

Development and releases

Development of Bear and Breakfast began in 2019. Published by Armor Games Studios, the game launched for Windows PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store on July 28, 2022. A Nintendo Switch release followed on September 15, 2022, with PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions arriving on December 12, 2023.

Creative capabilities

The studio’s work spans game design, programming, art direction, 2D illustration, character animation, narrative design and scriptwriting. Its production capabilities also cover adaptation and ongoing maintenance across PC and console platforms. Bear and Breakfast was built using Unity, combining the team’s visual and writing disciplines with multiplatform game development.

Gummy Cat develops its own creative intellectual property while working with an external publishing partner. Its debut illustrates a production approach that connects management mechanics, hand-drawn presentation and narrative within a single game.
