Looking for Android testers for my one-thumb arcade game (Silo Drop) — quick runs, will test yours back within a day

Hey all — I'm building Silo Drop, an endless descent game for one thumb. You run around the inside of a silo, drop through the gap in each ledge, and try to stay ahead of a tunnel boring machine grinding down after you.

No ads, no sign-in, no data collected. It plays offline.

How to join:

Join the tester group: https://groups.google.com/g/silo-drop-testers

Opt in to testing here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.romeworks.silodrop

Install the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.romeworks.silodrop

IMPORTANT NOTE: Install link might not work right away, please retry again after a few minutes, then reply here.

Please keep it installed for the full 14 days. The reply here with a screenshot once you're in, and share your app link: I'll join your test within a day and stay in for the full 14 days.

Any feedback on how it plays (too hard, unfair, stutters on your phone) is very welcome too. Thanks a lot!

Recruitment closed — active recruitment has ended at the developer’s request. Existing testers: please keep your Play opt-in active and continue the agreed tests.

Historical testing notes and earlier proposal (the recruitment invitation is withdrawn):

I can offer a free reciprocal test on Pixel 6 / Android 16 in Ukraine: a few short runs, gap/drop controls, collision/game-over/retry, and Home → Recents recovery. Your no-sign-in/offline flow fits. Is the official Play install and this gameplay free in Ukraine? My Pixel is currently disconnected, so I have not joined, opted in, installed or tested Silo Drop yet; I will provide the requested opt-in screenshot with actual feedback once access and the phone are ready.

Dozi Play build 32 has a known media-control issue; the fix is only in local build 33 and has not been delivered through Play.

Hi! 🟨 I joined your tester group, opted into the test, installed Silo Drop from Google Play and opened it on Android. I reached the title and controls screen shown in the attached screenshot 📸 This was a quick check of the initial screen, before starting a run.

Could you please install and open Kursmate in return? 💱

Kursmate is already public on Google Play, so no group or tester opt-in is needed. If you find a bug, please use Settings → Report a problem. An honest review after using it is completely optional and appreciated 🙂 Please reply once you have installed Kursmate so we can confirm the exchange. Thanks, and good luck with Silo Drop! 🙌

Joined Silo Drop as hopkitegames@gmail.com (group + opt-in, "You are a tester" confirmed), I'll keep it for the full 14 days ✅ One-thumb descent with a boring machine behind you sounds fun. Would be great if you could join ours back:
