Hello, I'm close to releasing my third game called Do Not Press The Button (To Delete The Multiverse) so I would like to get some feedback from players. My only conditions is that you let me watch you play because I need to see player reactions and ask questions at specific moments (whether a level works as intended, or a joke lands properly). Usually it's very chill, fun and we have a great time! Here is the game's Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2336120/Do_Not_Press_The_Button_To_Delete_The_Multiverse/

Comment here or message me if you want to try it and give me some feedback!

If you are still looking for playtesters, I'd be willing to try it out. I'd also be running it using proton

Can you find me on Discord please : ) my name there: evotheseusgames

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Uh, what method are you planning on using? I have my phone and a super 8 as far as recording goes. I mean I'm down, but I need to know what's involved.

Hi, the way I've done it before is we get on Discord or any other screen sharing site and you share the screen and play the game and we discuss in real time what you like, what you don't. What work, what does not so can get the feel of someone else of experiencing the game for the fist time. : ) If that is okay with you we can do it

If you're still looking for folk to playtest your game, I'd be down to give it a go! I've not done that kinda stuff before, but I have played an unhealthy amount of games, including the Stanley Parable. c:

Perfect, can you please add me as a friend on Discord so we can figure out the best time for both of us. My Discord name: evotheseusgames

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Sent a friend request just now.

I'm not sure if the steam link worked, so here it is again:

I'd be willing to try it out! I have not played the other games you've listed, though I am very aware of them and play a lot of other games besides.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thank you the way I've done it before is players share their screen on Discord or any other screen sharing site and I watch them play and we discuss the game in real time. It's fun. Are you willing to do that? : )

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sounds easy enough, sure, what are next steps from here?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Add me on Discord and we will schedule there depending on our schedules : ) My discord name: evotheseusgames

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Done, you will see a request from this same username.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I wanna press the button

I love Stanley Parable, I played the original when it released on PC but switched to console gaming since then, where I played the Ultra Deluxe.

Is a console release planned for your game?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That depends on the success of the PC version. I read somewhere that porting a game costs between 10k and 30k and that is if Sony even agree to have you on their store. So I would love to do it if these conditions are met.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What are the conditions on Xbox? Shouldn’t it be easier to port from Windows to Xbox, they have this ID@Xbox indie program, I don’t know much about it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I don't know I haven't researched that, but I assume they want quality projects with proven success. I would have to contact them at some point. Thank you for the idea : )

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I would love to try, I can also test linux/proton support

Voice chat is lil bit of a no no due to personal reasons. Still, good luck finishing your game! I have already wishlisted it on steam.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Thank you so much for the wishlist : ) Sorry for the voice thing, but it's very important for me as it is the best way to get feedback. I've tried doing recordings with playtesters and it's just not the same. Hope I will get your opinion on the full game when it's out. Warm regards : )

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

yep, I will make sure to drop a review on steam by than. Best of luck to you

[–] best_username_ever 0 points 4 months ago

I would buy that without testing anything but I don't have Windows. Do you plan to make it available for macOS or Linux?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

would you be okay if it were played on a livestream? or would it have to be a one-on-one sort of thing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

One on one, The full game is not ready yet and I'm not ready to show it to the public. If you are okay to share your screen on Discord or another screen sharing site, we can play and discuss the game : )
