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
Sent a friend request just now.
I would buy that without testing anything but I don't have Windows. Do you plan to make it available for macOS or Linux?
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
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
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.
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 : )
yep, I will make sure to drop a review on steam by than. Best of luck to you
would you be okay if it were played on a livestream? or would it have to be a one-on-one sort of thing?
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 : )
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?
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.
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.
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 : )
I wanna press the button
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.
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? : )
Sounds easy enough, sure, what are next steps from here?
Add me on Discord and we will schedule there depending on our schedules : ) My discord name: evotheseusgames
Done, you will see a request from this same username.
