Beard Pixies

Description
Beard Pixies is a game about growing beards. As a beard pixie, your task is to grow a beard, whether the owner of the face likes it or not. As you purchase upgrades to improve your beard growing skills, so too the man will purchase new razors to combat the increasing growth. If you can defeat all 5 razors, you win.

Controls:

Planting
Click to move the pixie to a location. If the pixie is already there, it will drop hair seeds. You can hold down the left mouse button to make the pixie follow your cursor and drop seeds whenever it reaches it.

Shaving
Sit back and watch the man shave off your precious hairs. Any hairs shaved here will be unavailable for harvesting.

Growing
Any hairs which haven't reached the maximum hair length will grow during this stage.

Harvesting
Click to move the pixie to a location. If the pixie is already there, it will harvest hairs. You can hold down the left mouse button to make the pixie follow your cursor and harvest hairs whenever it reaches it.

Shop
Purchase upgrades in the shop using harvested hairs.

Level Order: Shop, Planting, Shaving, Growing, Harvesting

Razors will break after shaving a certain amount of hairs. Defeat all 5 razors to finish the game.

Haha I forgot I posted Beard Pixies on here. I've done a few other prototype games in the last year, and recently began remaking BP using everything I've learnt since then. I have a great game format, and will continue updating this section :D Anyone interested in seeing some of what I've been up to, check out www.parallelstories.net/blog . I blogged development of one of my other titles, codename "Tetrisk", before I decided to remake BP.

The European Boardgames makers know how to make situations fun like : farming, economy and even roadbuilding (Agricola,PowerGrid and Carcassone). So i can believe that a Shave game can be Fun and of course "Unique" with the Aproppiate effort. Good work!

It's not just a simulator, there's a game design to back it up. Watch this space, next week I'll be back from my holiday, and make it less of a sandbox! Different is what I'm aiming for though, so thanks! ;)
