Hello all,
We're on the home straight with developing 'Rhiannon' now, so it's time to start looking for potential volunteer beta-testers from among the gaming community. Here's what we have in mind.
1) We think we need about half-a-dozen testers. For fairness, I'll be trying to post this request at AdventureGamers, GameBoomers, JustAdventure and Mystery Manor.
2) We're a trio of part-timers with no budget. We can't afford to pay you so you'd be working as a volunteer. Those who join the project and submit a complete test get a copy of the final game signed by the team and a "I beta-tested Rhiannon" t-shirt.
3) Testing will be formal - there are certain things to look for - plus opportunities for free text to tell us about stuff we've missed. You'll have to fill in a form as well as advising us on the fly.
4) You'll have to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement - we expect that you're going to see our dirty laundry, so we'll be asking that you keep it to yourself.
5) Testing is expected to be over the fortnight of first two weeks of August 2008. It will be intense, because time is tight, so we'll be asking you to tell us about bugs, gremlins and assorted discombobulators as you find them.
Are you up for it? If you decide to apply, please tell me at info at arberthstudios dot com why you think you'd be a great beta-tester.
Cheers,
Noel
