Tactichord: Glam Strategy First Playtest
[p]The guitars are tuned and the smoke machine is ready. We're going to do our first private play test starting November 1st. It's time to try out Tactichord: Glam Strategy.[/p][p][/p][h2]What is a play test?[/h2][p]A game demo is a complete package to give a taste of what the full retail version of the game is like. A play test is less than a demo in that the content is usually more restricted, and it's much earlier in the development process. It's a way for you to try the game while we're still working on it and tell us what works for you and what doesn't. It has bugs. It may crash. But there are certainly fun things to enjoy.[/p][p]![]()
[/p][p]There are many aspects to help new people all around the world try the game and make it as easy as possible for them to give feedback. So when you start the game you'll get asked if we can use anonymized metrics so we can record where you get stuck, how easy it is to clear the levels, etc. Then we pepper the game with ways to contact us when something goes wrong (or hopefully right!): a couple links to our Discord bugs channel, a way to wishlist the game, a survey where we can collect satisfaction data quantitatively, etc. And we're going to sweeten the deal by giving everyone a chance to win free copies of our other games. 🏆🥇[/p][p][/p][h2]How do I join?[/h2][p]To join the play test you need to do only two things:[/p]![]()

Once you get the mail, you'll have at least several days to try it out before the play test period ends the game stops working so we can go back to improving it.[/p][p]Let's have fun together making Tactichord as fabulous as a David Lee Roth karate kick.[/p][p]![]()
