Fun concept, the music and graphics were awesome. However it could've been a bit longer. Good job!

Good humor, nicely done, the gameplay is a bit too basic though.

flip120 2015-12-15 20:34

Good game, it is very funny

thelasthour 2015-12-15 20:46

Very simple gameplay but the art is great and the concept and execution are very funny.

dmecke 2015-12-15 20:47

Very nice take on the theme! Graphics and audio are absolutely fantastic.

I had so much fun bearding! The final round was hard, mainly because my fingers started to get tired.
Great idea, great game!

ittaimanero 2015-12-15 21:08

Hahhahaha, loved it. Really cool and funny idea and pretty well executed! Congratulations :D

So much beard power!!!!!

As an adult Asian male though, this game made me self-conscious.

Well made game,I hurt my fingers though trying to hit the keys so quickly so shortly after participating in a LD. But I suppose that's just like growing a beard in real life though, right?

Simple, but good music and funny art it makes a fun game.

teamcalin 2015-12-17 01:08

Really fun game! Nice interpretation of the theme :) Loved the ending music as well.

Epic Beard Game!! very funny, love those taunts after each match!

fussycashew 2015-12-17 02:29

I loved the art style in this! Really nice use of the theme, too.

freaknarf 2015-12-17 13:54

Funny game :) i beat the turbo mode thanks to years listening to death metal... Nice original choices on visuals ans music, and nice match with both themes!

xanjos 2015-12-17 19:59

Absolutely hilarious concept and great use of both themes. Loved the subtle Street Fighter references too :D

nirabazgames 2015-12-17 21:36

great idea for game!

andyman404 2015-12-17 23:48

Awesome job on Beard Victory! Hilarious drawings and theme.

firetwin 2015-12-22 23:14

Funny use of the two themes! It's also quite fitting for the current beard growing craze these days!

I loved the Street fighter style you got going there, especially that referee voice :D Would have been cool to see some sort of combo system though, but that might have been kinda hard to fit into this game. Nice one!

Haha, I have the same beard for the Santa's mood on holidays)))
After hilarious "Coffee Quest" I was looking forward to play your next game. "Beard Fighter" is funny and artistic, too, and I liked B/N button titles. A gameplay was pretty simple, though.
5 for Humor and Mood. Good work!

This is such an amazing idea. I don't like button mashing, but this whole scenario just had me grinning. I made it to the final boss on turbo, but kept losing by half a meter's margin. The graphics and soundscape are so perfect though.

Loved the hand drawn art and was rather tickled by the 8-bit pcm audio samples - very authentically retro arcade. Gameplay is obviously somewhat simple but as a quick fun little distraction it works perfectly

kanedaxiii 2016-01-02 15:17

Haha, very fun idea for a game! Awesome graphics, and well cared GUI. But I think I've got my finger broken ;D haha. Fantastic overall!

rodobodolfo 2016-01-02 16:50

This was awesome and legitimately fun! loved the audio and music too.

"You must defeat beard long to stand a chance"
I laughed sooo hard hahahahaha

It's a very funny game, it's worth for the laughs. Also, very tight controls and the difficulty is well ajusted - you mash buttons, but not with insane speed that ruin your keyboard or your wrists.

The only thing I would change is the shake screen effect on the growth stages, it gets kinda annoying to see. Maybe it would be better a sound response.
Something like "BEARD GROWT WAAAAAAARGGHH!!1" xD

Simple yet effective gameplay, I had a huge retro feel with this. The graphics were fantastic and the whole thing was my type of humor! Very thing works well together! Love it :D

pixelpotions 2016-01-05 00:56

Cool game! It was really funny to notice and compare the it with the old Street Fighter game feeling hahaha!
Nice one.
