Only a week left on the campaign for my next horror solo journaling game, Sample. It’s about an obsessive EDM musician who samples a cursed song. You get to transcribe the music from the book to create your own score at the end. Based on the melodies you choose, that determines the story’s outcome

Playtests were mighty promising, I'll tell you that much!

Implemented an ingame bugreporting form for future playtests. Makes it easier for us to collect reports and for the player to make reports. Inspired by Subnautica :>

I've played (and abandoned) several of those weird licenced versions. And hoo boy, *nobody* playtests or even proofreads those.

like trying games before they're finished? make a free WEBQ3 account and sign up as a playtester: you'll hear when a new playtest opens, and notes a studio uses count toward your Helpful mark. one is open now in your browser: https://webq3.games/playtests #indiedev #playtest
WEBQ3 card: chrome Q3 logo and “WEBQ3 Gaming”. Left copy reads “Be a playtester”, then “Sign up free — you'll hear when a new playtest opens. One is open now in your browser.”, footer “webq3.games”. Right: screenshot of webq3.games/playtests showing “Open playtests” (“View all 1 playtests”), the Nine Lives Network open-playtest tile (title “Nine Lives Network”, creator Mu5tbenice, RPG · Simulation, “Open playtest” button, PLAYTEST badge), “Upcoming projects” (“No upcoming projects have been published yet.”), and the “Be a playtester” box (“Sign in to sign up as a playtester: you’ll hear when a new playtest opens, and feedback a studio uses counts toward your Helpful mark.”). Far-right edge shows a partial What’s New sidebar with a HODL thumbnail (HODL is a Windows download).

devs: how do you decide a build is ready to show strangers? when it stops crashing, when a friend gets through it without you explaining anything, or when you just can't look at it anymore? #indiedev #gamedev
WEBQ3 card: chrome Q3 logo and "WEBQ3 Gaming". Left copy reads "Running a playtest?", then "1 open playtest · 0 in development. When is a build ready for strangers?", footer "webq3.games". Right: the /playtests hero over dusk lawn artwork with the title "Playtests" and the tagline "Play games while they're still being made, and see what's coming next. Your feedback shapes the release.", then "1 open playtest" and "0 projects in development". Below, a "Running a playtest?" box with the full line "Give your project a page in Creator Studio, upload a build and invite players to try it early." and a "Create a project" button.

You know I am, haha. Realizing now that you called out the Our Town reference in one of our playtests a month or so ago.

what is WEBQ3? a social platform for indie and browser games and the people making them. play free without an account, follow creators, join open playtests, or publish your own build. https://webq3.games #indiegames #gamedev
WEBQ3 intro card: chrome Q3 logo and the line "WEBQ3: a social platform for indie and browser games," plus "play free · follow creators · join playtests" and a webq3.games button. Right side shows the webq3.games homepage featuring HODL (Windows download), then three game tiles labeled Touch Grass Cat (browser), Nine Lives Network (browser playtest), and NASUBI (Windows download).

Not yet but It's planned, I don't think It'll be too tricky currently but when I eventually do playtests we'll find out and I'll correct accordingly lol

PlayStation has cancelled its online shooter FairGames after playtests delivered "mixed" results when it came to player feedback and retention.

The studio will now collaborate with other PlayStation teams, while exploring new creative projects. No job cuts are being made at this time
