How does the game fit the theme?
The trust people put in their barbers is often unfounded, especially when the barber in question is drunk.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Everything was made from scratch

Fun game and funny interactions! I felt a little bad for some of their cuts but that's probably pretty accurate to how I'd be as a real barber tbh. The monochrome art was great; it gives it a classy vibe which contrasts nicely with the wackiness of the game
I love this tipsy little vibe — after playing, I felt like I'd gotten drunk too XD
I'd say mission accomplished! :]
This game is a vibe, impressive for sure. Really goes for the true barber experience where I can butcher peoples haircuts. Controls feel responsive and the attention to detail is nice, I particularly enjoyed the tv interaction with the saxophone guy hair request. Visuals are great and pair well with the satisfying sfx. Music is also really nice to have in the background and fits the aesthetic so well
We're happy you mentioned saxoman! It's quite the hard cut for this one. The wanted man on the news is also hidden somewhere! Hehehe >:) thanks for playing the game!
I love this idea and how nice and responsive the game feels! Very impressive that only two people worked on this too!
Thank you! we are very proud of how it came out, been a crazy week!
That Game Boy green palette and the little barbershop set are so charming - I gave her a haircut she absolutely did not ask for.
It's times like this I wish we had an online gallery for all the results so far, I feel like y'all are wild...
Thank you so much!
i really like the concept and the fact that i can relate to barbers giving bad haircuts reflects the theme. the sounds, the music and visuals are so satisfying. i really enjoyed cutting and buzzing to create the most
horrendousamazing haircut you will ever see.look how he loves that haircut!!!
I'm sure they were all thrilled, lil guy so excited he doesn't know where to look anymore!
This is SOO good!! The art is gorgeous and the music helps to give a great atmosphere. The gameplay loop is also pretty fun and innovative. Huge props on making it!
Music to our ears! Thank you so much. Hopefully, in the future, we can add a whole lot more clients for a longer playthrough, but I'm very proud of what we achieved.
Very FUN Game!! looking at the art it reminds me of original gameboy color but it has more green colors! the music is also Cool! Good Job for making this game!!
Thank you! We were going for the retro look but ended up adding a bit more color than the original Nintendo games. I'm glad you had fun!
I had genuine fun with this one! The music and graphics are top-notch. Really, keep up the good work!
That means a lot! I hope you have the best time rating the rest of the games!
Lovely casual game! I really like being able to take control of what haircut they have, and being drunk makes the results moreeee hilarious. Nicely done!
We're glad you enjoyed it! Nothing like disappointing people with new haircuts! :>
Oh gosh, I wish I could cut the hair of even more charming characters. Great game!
It's all we could manage for now, but we sure have tons of ideas for more characters cooking... Thanks for playing our game!!
WOW! Love it! Manipulating pixels is really cool and I love that you added the screenshot/photo step there! Plays well and art is amazing. Well done both of you!
Hearing that makes all the challenges we faced worth it :3 thank you truly!
This is great! I like the art, the music and the game in general its really good and have great potential.
The only downside is that there's no way to fail the challenge (or maybe i missed something?) but apart of that I really like what you've been working on. Great job!
Im glad you enjoyed your time! At the moment it's just a simulation/sandbox type of game, we plan to add a grading system based on provided client references in the future and a bunch of other stuff, but the deadline kicked our asses :<
Hope she likes it.
This is awesome! Really funny, good art and good music
I'm glad you like it! I remember your game from the rating, really beautiful.
I like the graphics and the characters! fun mini game :D
Aywaa thank youuu
It’s impressive how good everything looks! I ended up making everyone bald while testing the tools, lol. /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4950346If you get a chance to check out and rate mine, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!
I'm sure they love being bald. Definitely 100%. Thank you for the support! I'm checking yours right away!
Absolutely incredible guys. Quick, clever, really fun. And visually stunning. Likely the most impressive art direction I've seen so far.
What an incredible thing to read! Thank you so much.
I can't believe this was all made from scratch! This is so polished - definitely could be on steam. Now I know for sure that I shouldn't be a barber, so thanks for that. I felt really bad about this client... I was trying to go for a toad from mario vibe but forgot that everything is green. So now she just looks infected.
Infected works great on him! Thank you for the validation, really!
We plan on launching a demo on steam once we address some bugs, add features like shops, news weird clients, new tools, client reference images etc... i hope you have the loveliest time rating the rest of the games.
My best attempt looks like a pencil:
rly good stuff, love the pixel art! Keep working on this for sure (:
Once we recover from the game jam sleep deprivation, we have LOTS of ideas ready. Thank youuu
