I really enjoyed the game. The controls were responsive and the game can get pretty challenging. I'm not sure if this was done on purpose but it reminds me a lot of super meat boy in certain aspects. The music is very catchy. My only complaint is the view that the game is at. Every thing is so small and in turn it makes the things look ugly at points. You could have made a closer view without sacrificing gameplay.
Reviews for "Quin's Quest for a Beard"
the second jump was not high enough, the control were a little bit too hard (when i tried to walk left he walked too far to the left) and why not using the arrow keys too?
the music was catchy and i enjoyed it as far as i came.
The graphics were simple and small, but they worked just fine. The gameplay was fun. From what I played, it wasn't too challenging, but I think there should have been some checkpoints so the player doesn't have to restart the whole level because of one mistake. The sound is pretty good; the effects fit and the music is appropriate. The "story" of the game is funny, and I love the fact that you collect golden beards. Overall, it's a pretty solid game.

Check points were left out deliberately in favour of shorter levels that the player could master as they progressed through the game. But looking back, I do think check points could've been a placeable object that you earn through the collection of beards, similar in the way the game "They Bleed Pixels" handles check points. Thanks for writing a review.
im sorry it was just too small for anyone to see good but i did give you a little something for creating it cause i know its hard to make games but it was just way to small. Cant hardly see the character or the environment make everything a lot bigger and try again and i will be able to give it a shot sorry i couldnt do nothing with it this time around hopefully i can see some more from you later that way i can give you a better chance im really sorry that i couldnt do anything more. :(

Thanks for the feedback, that's definitely something I'll keep in mind for games in the future.
