I had to fullscreen to play. The distance in which I could actually do anything felt off, was not as fluid as I had hoped, but who doesn't love beards?

Unfortunately those glitches were not able to get sorted by the deadline, but we do plan to finish it as soon as possible! Thanks for playing! :)

Unfortunately it seemed a bit glitchy as I couldn't actually grapple to anything or right click (just brings up the Unity right click options in a web browser)

That being said, the graphic design is amazing!

Seemed like it could be interesting, but like Lynx said, every time I right-clicked it brought up the Unity options menu, meaning the game was basically unplayable.

The instructions at the start disapears really fast, i had to refresh the page a few times to knows the controls :/
it's pretty annoying to play with wasd in a AZERTY keyboad, with not enough time to change the keyboard type :/
And each time i die the game crash, and chrome crash with it ._.
I'm sorry, games look fine, but i can't enjoy it like this :/

I love this concept, and the artwork. The controls are little bit rough, and on the web right-clicking brings up a context menu so that gets in the way. Good job though. It's fun, funny, and looks good.

Nice graphics and sound, but a little repetitive. Anyways, the game works fine. :)

had to go fullscreen to get rid of the right click menu. the art style and all seems real nice but i couldn't really make the gameplay work for me overall.

Cool art, music and beard! Would love to see the concept expanded. More forest critters! More levels! More beard!

- The instruction screen disapear after 2 seconds (I had to F5 multiple time just to know how I was supposed to play)
- The game froze my browser every time I switch tab (I write my comment as I play)
- Clicking does nothing as long as you don't play in fullscreen mode
- The game crashed everytime I died

...

I feel like all those problemes hinder gameplay and prevent me from giving it the rating it deserves. The compo version (which is the one we are supposed to play) is basically unplayable :/

could use some death animations and stuff
nice graphics
for web player you should disable right click context menu in web player build settings

Thanks so much for playing everyone, despite the difficulties!
We really appreciate all feedback and have put a post-compo version for anyone interested in trying a working version, however there's still a bunch we'd like to have done but just didn't have the time..

@Lynx Thanks for the kind words! :)

@JJEvil Thanks so much for not only including Beardo on your list but for choosing us as the winner! :) We were so stoked to top that list, it's a pretty great achievement in itself.

@dusho We did have the animations but no time to put them in.. :( Thanks for the feedback though!

To everyone else with constructive criticism thanks so much, we're gonna work crazy hard to blow your minds next year! First LD down and great fun was had!

Nice graphics, fairly buggy though.
