The very first playtest of Survivesmith has concluded successfully after exactly one week!
We expected zero results but hoped for the best when going into the playtest. The results have far exceeded our expectations!
The Results
A total of 26 players have actively participated in the playtest.
Those players have played the game for a median playtime of 32 minutes.
Received very valuable feedback from around 10 players.
2 new members joined our discord, making the total to 6 members.
Got not one, but 2 awesome review/gameplay videos from YouTuber NerfedReflexes.
...and a load of newfound hope and confidence for working on our game!
Conclusion
While these are very rookie numbers, it was the most appreciation and value we've gotten for Survivesmith ever since we announced the game in public. So we consider this a big win!
With all your feedback, we thrive to make the next experience a much smoother and fun one. We hope you enjoyed this playtest. We will work double time to bring out the Playtest #2 as fast as we possibly can. But this time, we want to make sure you don't get lost figuring out what to do or where to go next (as that was our biggest complain in this version).
Until then, have fun! Don't forget to join our discord if you want to follow the development of our game.
Cheers!
