Howdy ya'll, and welcome to the DBS Playtest! I am excited so many of ya'll have joined me for this game dev journey. I am looking forward to hearing what you think!
Ideally I'll be updating the playtest 1-2 times a week. I'll do some basic testing to make sure stuff doesn't crash, but these builds may be unstable. This is a great way for me to practice updating the full game, so I'll be including a post like this each update with a list of the updates. Anything marked as "Feedback Requested" means I would love to hear your opinion on it if you test out that feature in the game.
1/13/2025 Update:
[FEEDBACK REQUESTED] Added NPC chance to ask to sharpen if its unlocked
[FEEDBACK REQUESTED] Rebalanced upgrades for smithing
Repriced fruits and smithing items according to economy balancing
Adjusted book buy button for the pink error reported - ty Lich
Prototyped secret area - Added hide 2nd row of farm plots during FTUE
Playtesting Notes:
If you submit a bug report or some in-depth feedback, I'd love to include you in the credits. Just make sure to include your username or name in your submission.
If you do get a crash that is repeatable, when submitting your bug report it'd be super helpful if you run the "Console Debug" version of the game you can find in the Steam folder alongside the EXE. That'll let you screenshot the game engine's output and help me resolve the crash.
Screenshots / Videos are extremely helpful with identifying the issue and helping me replicate it.
For any visual issues, including your CPU / GPU specs is super helpful
To wrap, thank you all for your help. Even if you're just playtesting to check it out, this process helps keep me accountable and making progress! See you on the next update :)
