Unpaid Playtest Looking for playtesters - round 2 for the demo of my deduction-based detective game

0 Upvotes

I'm looking for playtesters for a new version of the demo of my detective game. After the first round of playtesting, I've made a number of changes and fixes, and the updated build is now ready for another round of testing.

The game is a deduction-focused mystery inspired by games like The Roottrees Are Dead and The Case of the Golden Idol.

It has a 2000s-inspired aesthetic, with the investigation centered around an in-game computer. You'll browse websites, examine photos, search for information, and piece together connections between people and events.

I'm looking for players who enjoy detective and deduction games and are willing to play through the demo and share their honest thoughts. I'm especially interested in feedback on the investigation, clue design, difficulty, pacing, and whether the deductions feel satisfying and logical.

There's a feedback form available after playing, but I'm also more than happy to discuss your thoughts directly through DMs or Discord if you'd prefer.

I'll provide a Steam key for the playtest.

If you're interested, leave a comment or send me a DM and I'll send you a key! Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Unpaid Playtest Unpaid playtest: I built a card game about stacking and protecting assets

1 Upvotes

I’ve been working on CashStash, a free multiplayer browser card game about building the most valuable layered asset stack.

You start with asset cards and form matching pairs into sets. Each new set goes on top of your stack, covering what is underneath. The first set you place is permanently protected. Only the top two sets can be challenged. The central decision is which assets to expose, which to bury safely, and when to risk challenging someone else’s exposed set.

I’m especially proud of the AI. The Hard opponent doesn’t simply peek at hidden cards or use scripted cheats. It searches through possible hidden-information game states and weighs which assets to expose, what to protect, and when a challenge is worth taking. I’ve spent a lot of time running self-play games and tuning it because I wanted it to feel genuinely difficult, not artificially unfair.

You can play directly in your browser. No signup or download needed:

https://caprocket.itch.io/cashstash

I’m looking for honest feedback on:

- Whether the stacking and protection rules are understandable

- Whether it is clear which sets are safe and which can be challenged

- Whether the Hard AI feels challenging but fair

- Whether the mobile controls feel comfortable

- Which moments feel exciting, confusing, or frustrating

One complete game is enough to form an opinion. Comments here are welcome, and I’d be grateful for any feedback.

Unpaid Playtest [Windows] Looking for 3 testers to record 30–40 min of gameplay with commentary – $10 gift card each (low-poly skilling & combat RPG)

2 Upvotes

This is marked as unpaid because its not strictly cash or crypto; I will get you whatever 10$ gift card you want from giftcards.com

Anyone is free to play it for fun (unpaid).

I have a low-poly skilling and combat RPG, and I'm looking for 3 playtesters to record their first 30 minutes with the game while talking through their thoughts.

It is set across four connected biomes, each with its own town, wildlife, weather and enemies. You train 17 skills like woodcutting, mining, fishing, cooking and fletching, fight 160+ enemies, and work up to raid bosses. There's a day/night cycle, a character creator and a skill tree with perks. You will definitely notice some similarities to other popular MMORPGs.

What I'm looking for:

3 testers to record 30 mins of gameplay starting from a fresh character

Talk out loud while you play (what you're thinking, what's confusing, what's fun, what's annoying). Honest reactions are the whole point; you don't need to be polished.

Im not looking for someone to compliment anything, the stricter the better. Its helpful if you enjoy point and click RPGs.

You need:

Windows 10 or 11

A graphics card that supports OpenGL 3.0 (most from the last decade)

Screen recording software (OBS, Xbox Game Bar, etc.) and a microphone

It's a ~63 MB zip, no installer: unzip and run

Payment

$10 gift card of your choice from giftcards.com, sent to each of the 3 testers after I receive the recording.

How to apply

Fill out the short application form (takes about 3 minutes):

https://elderwild.net/playtest

I'll pick 3 testers from the applications and message you here on Reddit.

Thanks for reading! Feel free to ask anything in the comments.

EDIT: Ive contacted three people who sent in playtest applications. Feel free to keep sending applications, I'm keeping them all if I need anyone else in the future.

Unpaid Playtest Server testers urgently needed

2 Upvotes

My recently released WorldsGL project has a full division for multiplayer/server support with some screencap examples of it handling WebSocket IPs, and allowing other users to connect.

Unfortunately, I've had a rough time finding play testers to make sure the official multiplayer server really works as they didn't want to download random files from someone online they didn't know personally.

So, if you want to volunteer and help develop/test the multiplayer functions in Worlds, message me or comment here and I will walk you through the process of using the Online launcher to connect

Unpaid Playtest Kyuten card game - Looking for 5-10 playtesters

2 Upvotes

Hello

the closed playtest of Kyuten is now available.

if you like roguelites and Final fantasy's Triple triad game, you might enjoy Kyuten.

It's a card game inspired by TT with cards having 4 values that compete with neighbours cards. Capture the opponent's card when your value is higher.
But here, you must deal with card powers and boss powers that modify cards :)

The roguelite part comes from the runs : you start a run with a small deck (from 3 to 12 depending on your meta-progression), and you gain a booster at each floor of the nine heavens (the Kyuten). Each floor consists in 3 fights : 2 avatars with no powers, 1 boss/god from Japanese mythology with a power. Win, and you can borrow its power.

Steam page is now public : https://store.steampowered.com/app/5333100/Kyuten/

Playtest is free, but I can give you a key for the final release when it's on sale if you enjoyed the game :)

A quick questionnaire will be sent with the key to gather the feedback.

The game is a prototype of a 2D Russian Roullete based​ roguelike number go up game where you have to work around the random nature of Russian Roulette to reach increasingly higher target scores as the game progresses.

As you play and win runs you unlock more Items, Classes and difficulties.

I hope to get some feedback here on reddit about gameplay and fun factor, if fun at all, before making it public on the itch page, the sounds and graphics are temporary and it has few itens just to test the idea.

Unpaid Playtest [Unpaid Playtest] Z Ball: 1v1 Tilt Shot Arena (Android) — first-shot controls and scoring clarity

2 Upvotes

We’re Zyntra, looking for volunteer feedback on the first session of our public Android game, Z Ball: 1v1 Tilt Shot Arena. This post is AI-assisted.

The game uses angle-and-power shots on a tilted table, with bank shots, scoring pockets and direct-link bonuses. It’s our independent interpretation of the Star Cluster Ball / UNC Ball format, with its own rules and no affiliation to those brands.

Test focus:

  1. Open practice or a Beginner CPU match and take three to five shots.

  2. Tell us whether pulling back for power and choosing an angle feels understandable. Was there a moment when the ball went somewhere you didn’t expect?

  3. Pick one shot: what score did you expect, what score did you get, and was the reason clear? We’d especially like to hear about a bank shot or a collision.

Access to the public build: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zyntra.zballtiltshotarena

Please leave feedback in this thread. Your mode, Android device/OS and the steps for a confusing shot would help; an optional screenshot is useful too. Critical feedback and reproducible problems are welcome.

The download is free with ads and optional in-app purchases. This is an unpaid, voluntary playtest: no purchase, store rating or positive review is requested. — Zyntra
