Interested in beta testing Malayalam? If so, then read on..
Sometime in July, we're planning to release some sort of an early beta to gather information mainly on bugs and glitches but also on general improvement ideas and opinions on things like the UI, difficulty level etc.
We are looking for people who would be somewhat committed to testing, a bit more than just to launch the exe, play 2 minutes, quit and say "nice" or "sucks". Instead, testing would take something like 5 hours of your time and you should be able to go through a certain checklist of features to see if and how they work on your computer. That can get boring, so patience is beneficial here as well as precision on details and skills to communicate the feedback effectively forward.
If that didn't scare you away, then throw an email to feedback(@)mjkgames(dot)com with the following information:
- how old are you & where from?
- what sort of system(s) do you have in use (Mhz, RAM, graphics card, Windows version)
- have you beta tested games before
- when are you available for testing
Then I'll contact you as soon as we have the beta available for testing. The actual testing of 5 hours should take place inside 1 week from the start.
A nominal reward for good testing feedback is something worth of $10.
Once I've spent my summer vacation. So in August we will start with the beta, there are still some things to be done before the game is ready for beta test. Sorry for the delay. :/
Wow it really is August. I remember the days when I said this game would be out in March-April...
But some kind of a beta test will definitely start "pretty soon". Maybe the test version won't yet be quite as comprehensive as I'd like it to be, but still sufficient for gathering bug reports and other feedback. In the end, it's pretty simple game with simple features - we are just so damn lazy to make things happen.
Also we need to sort out the bad object stuff from the mfa before we can really do anything more. Yay, I have another good excuse for the delay right there.
I will contact every beta tester via email as soon as possible to check their availability and to give information and instructions for the test. Beta test is not public - it is just for the selected testers.
Ok, every tester should've now received an email from me with some information about the beta test. But in case you haven't please send me an email to feedback(at)mjkgames(dot)com.
Yeah well maybe just a bit too late, we have already quite a lot of testers, but thanks for the interest nevertheless. Also the first public version should be available already in this month, so everybody can play then.
