> Additional Notes on the Closed Beta:
> This Closed Beta will be under a Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA), and participants won’t be allowed to share any content–screenshots, videos, or any type of information–from the game online.
> Beta testers will have access to a private channel on Alt Shift’s Discord to discuss the beta with the studio and other beta testers.
Why are we doing a Closed Beta?
As with our previous game Crying Suns, for this final phase of production, we want to focus our efforts on gathering feedback from our community in order to adjust the gaming experience and make it as closely aligned as possible with players' desires and expectations. This beta will allow us to polish key aspects of the game, address any issues, and ensure the experience is as engaging as possible for everyone.
Testers will be chosen based on a qualification form (LINK), according to their player profile, and if they reflect the game’s target audience. As this is a private beta, the number of participants will be limited, and not all applicants will be able to join this testing round. However, even if you’re not selected this time, don’t worry, you may still have the chance to participate in future beta rounds.
Thank you to everyone who will be taking part in the closed beta – we can't wait to hear your thoughts, get your feedback, and bring you on this journey with us!
So say we all,
The Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes Team
