Project Existence Testing Environment (PETE) Playtest Review

Hi all!

We recently concluded a milestone playtest in our newly renamed Project Existence Testing Environment (PETE). It was a twelve-hour test, with participants establishing outposts, gathering resources and working together to rebuild a monument. This was essentially the same goal as the previous three playtests, though with substantial adjustments to the time it takes to accomplish the main goal to reflect a more standard gameplay experience. We also made UI improvements, performed some bug fixes and included the addition of rocks as a new resource.

Below is an infographic breakdown of the aftermath of the playtest:



We hope to add new features and functions as we schedule future playtests, with a goal of continually increasing the number of participants for each.

If you'd like to participate, or know anyone who'd be interested in helping us lay the foundation for our upcoming MMO, we'd love to see you on Discord. You can also follow us on Twitter for frequent updates.

For those that joined in, thank you so much for your help. We genuinely appreciate it. If you're new, we hope to see you in the snow very soon!
