Test Version
In order to avoid the potential problems of the new version in the future, which will seriously affect the game experience of the players, Geometry Arena now has opened a test version.
Benefits: experience the new version in advance, and help producer find potential bugs in the first place.
Disadvantages: potential bugs, instability, etc.
Including all kinds of new mechanisms and new content in the future, they will be tested on the beta for a period of time (about 1-5 days), and then released normally.
Depending on the actual situation, in case of serious problems or unreasonable design of the new mechanism, the content of the beta may be rolled back or redone at any time.
Then the beta version may be a version divided into multiple updates, with a little content added each time. After stabilizing, it will make a summary and move to the normal version as a new version.
Recommendation
New players can play the normal version, and old players familiar with the game can try to enter the test version.
Methods to enter the test version: right click the game name in the steam library→ properties → "test" tab → select the test you want to participate in → select the "test", and then the game will be updated to test version.
Notice
Due to technical reasons, the tentative test version and the ordinary version share common savedata and leaderboards.
