So many bullies! So little time!

Beautiful game, I LOVED the art! Controls were rather difficult, but the rest of the game made up for it. VERY well done!

Such beard, so testosterone.

This is great! I wasn't very good at avoiding those bullies though. Awesome presentation.

really nice gameplay, really fun and hard at the same time!

Nice beard and good gameplay!

hilarious good job

all of this in two days is crazy, awesome job duder

Sweet game. Interesting mechanics with the different items and characters. Good Job, really enjoyed that :D

Really good use of the theme but man is it frustrating to control. Also you seem to be guaranteed to get stopped by the bullies on the bottom because you have no room to maneuver for the items on the far left and right. I think it'd make it a little more playable if you went off one side of the screen and came back on the other. I wish I could see the endings but I can't get anything better than stubble.

The story!! Its so awesomeeeee!! hahahah...great narration...sound...art!! Nice game! :D

Just like real life!
Really fun game, I really enjoyed it.
Could be a tad more difficult, though.

Great game! Solid gameplay, clean graphics, and cute and fun story. Awesome.

Amazing... poor Danny was scarred forever by not being able to grow a beard. I'm 27 and no amount of mags has made me grow one :(.

Really exceptionally polished. Social commentary game on fleek, writing and sound is great. I did find the controls a little difficult, and having the cheerleader, with her huge penalty, so near the room made things unpleasant for me.

In terms of attention to detail and polish I don't know what more you could want from a LD game!

Very nicely put together game. Quite frustrating to control, though.

awesome !! it's very cute and funny ! I like the mood and the old school feeling, the controls are smooth and it's fun. congrats.

Haha, great game. Really good use of the LD34 themes too, growing a beard and moving with only two controls.

Brutally difficult for me though, I only finished with a stubble! :D

Fun game. Made me smile.

This is so cute! Beards FTW!

Lot's of features! Quite frustrating though. Cheers!

I think you've generated the best Autotracker song in existence.

Awesome game, yet difficulty is too hard, in my honest opinion. It's pretty impossible to avoid bullies in narrow passages, and they're everywhere! There's no place to rest =(

Really funny, good dialogues and artstyle!
We sort of had the same idea, but yours is way more fleshed out :)

The only negative I could think of is that the beating up animation lasts way too long, if it was 50% shorter it would be nice.

Good job!!

I read the instructions and thought this'd be a cakewalk. Wrong. Sooo hard. I got a goatee, at least. :(

I love single-screen arcade games so I automatically love this. Really funny and plays well too. Good job.

Controls were tough, but it was a fun game despite it. Like the humor of it!

Hi guys!

@FuzzyWuzzie: Controls need a bit to get used to, but once you master them you can pull off sick MLG moves :) Thanks for the kind words!
@yumaikas: Yup ;)
@irwatts: Thanks! Yeah it takes a while to get a feel for the movement.
@Ghen: Cheers! That's what I was aiming for :)
@jerry111zhang: Danny thanks you for the compliment ;)
@rosden shadow: I'm happy you found it humorous, I was worried only I would laugh at it :D
@fishtrek: Still honing the craft, this kind of feedback keeps me going, thanks!
@RadMcCool: Thanks! Cheers.
@doitle: Legit points, but you can actually jump over the bully on the lowest platform, even when you are in a corridor. It's difficult at first because Danny is slow, but the longer his beard, the faster he becomes, so you can definitely do it!
@mukult: Glad you liked it :D
@GenusNymphicus: Thanks for the kind words! It's rare to find someone that thinks my game could be more difficult ;) makes me happy!
@paraxite: Thanks, glad you liked it!
@madcoil: Hah, yeah, things life rarely work the way ninth graders imagine them to :)
@prymidion: Damn Kylie ;) I've learned to avoid her at all costs, even at the cost of falling down to a lower platform and getting rekt by a bully instead :P
@SomeKindOfOctopus: Yup, takes some getting used to, I agree!
@anael: Cheers!
@DivineOmega: Stubble isn't the worst, but it doesn't let you take Dora to prom ;)
@SecularBaron: Good to hear that!
@lekochen: Beards are pretty hardcore, I agree :P
@laFunk: Yeah, game can be frustrating at the beginning. Needs some getting used to :(
@danbolt: Well, you know what they say about a thousand monkeys on a thousand typewriters... I guess 1 monkey writing autotracker for an hour and going through the results is pretty similar, no :P?
@Firellon: Bullies can be tough, but there's only 1 that you have to avoid in the narrow passages below :P Even so, with some timing you can even leap over him inside the corridor! It needs some practice, not immediate by any measure :)
@Drtizzle: Thanks for the kind words, glad you liked the humor/story :D about the beating up, it's actually the "mildest" setback at only 3 second delay. The cheerleader shrinks your beard and Danny's mom and dad confiscate his contraband, so they are way more dangerous... which is why they are placed in positions where you are less likely to hit them if you're careful ^^
@fluidvolt: Thanks for your kind words! Yup, game isn't easy, I only managed to get the best ending once so far myself, haha xD
@jdoughty: Cheers!

Very nice game. Well done !

didn't know which one was me at start.. they all look similar
nice game.. had fun

Nice idea, but the controls are a little tricky ^^

I like the theme about beards. The game plays quite nice. The text sound does get a bit annoying.

I thought the game was hilarious.

Really well done, I loved this as it was funny and had a good goal. I think the only criticism would be that when you get blocked in at the bottom, there's really no escaping the enemies as you can't jump or anything to get away. The movement of the enemies feels a little unpredictable as well, for instance when they stop moving mid-jump and you land on them. This is one of the more original Ludum Dare entries my partner and I have seen! All in all it's definitely well made. Good job and good luck

Fun little game. I actually like the controls even though they are a little bit awkward. My main complaint is that the bully movement is too random, so it's hard to predict. And it's very hard to evade the bullies at the bottom.
Also it was a bit too hard. I wasn't able to woo Dora. But who wants to date that Dora character anyway? She doesn't even have a beard!

Rather Difficult but fun

Rather difficult, but otherwise quite a nice game! Really hard to get all the endings, though.

LOL that ending. This game was flawless! I did find it really challenging because of the two-button controls but that is what made it fun. All of the cutscenes and menu/text animations are what made it seem so polished. Thanks for letting the player speed up the text, I think that's a really good call. Great art, great sound, great game!

Haha funny story / objective! I am terribly coordinated and sucked hard at this game, but I had a lot of fun with it!

i feel bad because of the bully x.x
but fun game!

This was a fun game, and slightly harder than I was expecting! I love how his stubble starts growing the more manly items you collect! Really nice game.

Very frustrating game!!!!

Good entry still, I'm super angry, but I'll still rate 5.

You know what? From a lumberjack to another: Danny, you deserve better.

Funny concept. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/7EMaRu1rC0U

Cute game! I loved the story and the premise, and although I never quite got the hang of the controls, it was still pretty fun! Great work!

Enjoyed the humor and the ending. If that is what you need to do to be a man, I've been doing it wrong this whole time...

Stinkin' hard, but otherwise awesome: great story, art, music, and brilliant concept.

Hello fellow beard game maker! I loved your game. Simple but great graphics. Liked the back story. Good use of humur, true to both themes and clever use of limited controls. Nostalgic game play and quite innovative that you take the items back to your room to progress also found it quite addictive. Cheers!

Very nice game. I love the artwork very much. I mlove beards ;D +1 for that .... Good job man.

What a cute little game! It controlled very well. The sound effects were really great. I like that there were multiple endings! Nice job. :)

Controls took some getting used to, but overall a very fun game.

Good catch on the theme. Interesting story! A little bit hard to get used to the controls!

Nice game, I love the graphics, audio, and general idea!

However, I find it very hard and frustrating to play due to its control: you're almost guaranted to hit one or several bullies. They move way too fast on their platform to allow to make some kind of "planning" for the best time to jump, and as you continuesly move, it tends to get annoying to get hit so often. Maybe reducing the walking speed of the bullies would make it easier for newbie players like me :)

Anyway, a good entry overall!

Two themes into one game and funny as fuck! Crazy shit boys do for girls. Loved it.

Solid entry. Frustrating at times but thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Wahahah this was funny.

Fantastic job on pretty much everything!!
Although I found controlling the player kinda frustrating, I thought it was extremely well put together and quite fun. :D

This was great. Great use of both themes. Funny and amusing. Controls were solid.
