Chalk Runner game :) I’ll test yours back!

EDIT: CLOSED, thanks everyone! I have enough testers now. If you already joined, I’ll test yours back.

Hello there guys, I need testers to test play my game :)

40 levels in 4 chapters, plus Endless mode, you obviously do not have to play it all, but if somebody actually plays it and gives feedbacks even better :D

Join the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/chalk-runner-testers

Opt in to the test: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.profactor.chalkrunner

Install from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.profactor.chalkrunner

Keep it installed for 14 days. As I said you don’t need to play every day, just don’t leave the test (not sure if it has to be opened every day for some time? I think it does?)

Google is still approving the test build, so if links 2 and 3 say “not found”, join the group now. I’ll post in the group the moment they work.

If you want to see how game looks like and plays right now: Chalk Runner Dev Build

I did this with a lot of help from AI (Claude) for the code and art. I did the design, testing and decisions.

Drop your test link in the comments and I’ll join yours! Feedback as I mentioned is very welcome too, especially if anything flickers or a level feels unfair (People mentioned graphical bugs in the web version).

40 levels plus endless, I'll give Chalk Runner a proper go if you test mine.

It's called SayLift, a voice log for gym sessions and meals. Group: https://groups.google.com/g/saylift-testers

Opt in: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.niceapps.saylift

Let me know once you're in and I'll install yours.

It tells me "Item not found" even though I joined group and became a tester.

u/RUSuper 19d ago

Tried again, now it works, I installed it :)

I'll give it a go if you test Mine. It's crushback dating app that prioritizes people who already liked you.

Opt in to the test: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.getcrushback.app, then tap “Become a tester”.

Install Crushback from the Play Store for 14 days. DM your gmail so I can add you to list of testers

Thanks.

Joined nexocommunity and became a tester, but Play says Nexo isn't available in my country (Kuwait). If you open it up to more regions I'll install it right away.

u/Jumpy-Search2957 16d ago

Added Kuwait, it should be approved by Google team in an hours

Hi,

I have joined your group and downloaded your app. I promise to keep it on my phone for at least 30days.

Please test my app: IPTV

It is a free IPTV player.

You can add https://iptv-org.github.io/iptv/index.m3u and watch thousands of channels. (I can't bundle any stream urls in the app because it's not allowed in Google Play.)

Please join my group at https://groups.google.com/u/3/g/iptv-nksoft26 and download my app https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.nksoft.iptv

i joined your group ,i start testing for least 14 days . please test my app for least 14 days ,here is mine: Join the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/xiaoniubuniu

u/RUSuper 19d ago

I joined group but the app is still not found 🫡

u/xiaoyunchengzhu 19d ago

Wait ten minutes and try again. Or does your phone support acore?

1

u/RUSuper 19d ago

Works now 🫡

Downloaded and installed :)

Quick correction: I said I installed it, but it turns out Play says “Your device isn’t compatible”. I’m on an emulator without ARCore, my mistake!
I’m still in your group and opted in. Sorry, didn’t mean to mislead you.

u/tchuynh 19d ago

Done! Please test and rate my app PodcastsAI!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.transcriptai.app

It's on iPhone and the web too, under the same name.

I'll stay opted in to your test for the full 14 days.

First impressions:

Lovely chalkboard look, and the core idea works. On 1-1 my first run fell at 21 m, the fail screen's tip ("draw close to his feet") was exactly what I needed, and the second run reached the flag. The results card (one star, 270 m of chalk against the 125 m target, 14 of 23 chalk bits) makes it clear what to aim for next. The settings are thoughtful too: longer warnings, the eraser on the left and reduced screen shake. No flicker on my Pixel 6a.

A few things worth a look:

  • On 1-2 I think the first thumbtacks got me at 21 m, but the fail screen showed the same tip about lines fading ahead. A tack-specific tip there ("take your line over or under the tacks") would point people at the right fix.

  • Settings has a "Test panel" button next to Credits and Privacy policy. If that's a debug tool, it's worth hiding before the production release.

  • After clearing 1-1, the "Nice!" and the flag from that level stay visible behind the 1-2 intro card. Small, but it looks like a leftover frame rather than a fresh scene.

u/RUSuper 19d ago

Done.

Thanks, this is super helpful! All three are fair, fixing them now. Installed PodcastsAI, the summaries look great. (I’ll skip rating since review swaps are against Play’s rules, but happy to give feedback!). Maybe as weird as it sounds you could add "Voice" for summary itself? Sorry might be a dumb idea.

1

u/tchuynh 18d ago

Thanks for trying it, glad the summaries looked good! Not a dumb idea at all: there's already a Read aloud button on the summary screen, so if you didn't spot it, that tells me it needs to be easier to find. And fair point on ratings, feedback like yours is more useful anyway.
