subROV News

The subROV playtest is open!



Sign up now and Steam will send you an email as soon as you're granted access to the playtest.



What we expect from the playtest

We have overhauled the game's controls and the game now works with keyboard/mouse/pads/joysticks. The tutorials' texts adapt on the fly to the controller you are using, and there's a new help system to give you information on the controls without having to look at the manual. We have also addressed most of the feedback we received from the previous playtest, and made improvements across the board.

The purpose of this playtest is to check that the new control system works fine, and to get your overall impressions on the game so far.

How YOU can help

Play the game and give us feedback, any feedback! We'll take your opinion into consideration and will do our best to improve the game based on it.

You can send us feedback in many ways:

• Straight from the game at any time by pressing F8,
  
• Through our Discord Server,
  
• Through Twitter,
  
• By email (info 'at' sqr3lab.com)
  

Seriously, keep in touch! we'll love to hear from you.

Other things to Keep in mind

• The game is still in early development. Both features and content will change between now and release.
  
• You can stream and record the game, but please let people know that it is a playtest from an early version.
  
• subROV has a manual! Give it a look if you want a full explanation of how the various game systems work.
  

ALL SYSTEMS ARE GO! THANK YOU!

We are happy to announce that a new Playtest is coming!



Playtest starts next Saturday. Sign up now and we'll let you know when it goes online.

The subROV Playtest is now over, and we'd like to thank everyone for their help!



The Playtest has been a great experience, and we've received lots of useful feedback. We are already working on it and we look forward to organizing another playtest soon. In the meantime, do get in touch: add the game to your wishlist, follow us on Twitter, and don't forget to join our Discord Server!

Again, thank you so much, and Happy New Year!

Over the last week we have received a good number of applications to participate in the subROV playtest, and we're now closing new entries. If you didn't make it this time, though, worry not! the experience has been very positive and we look forward to organizing new playtests in the future.



We will keep access to the Playtest open until Thursday, December 30, to give everyone extra time to play it during the holidays.

• Through our Discord Server,
  
• Sending us feedback from the game at any time by pressing F8 (include your email if you'd like us to reply back),

How we're going to organize the playtest

Since this is the first time we do a playtest, we're going to grant access to a small group of people first. If we see that everything is going fine [UPDATE: everything went fine :)], we'll grant access to everyone in the queue in a few hours. Then we'll keep granting access to people in batches until the end of the playtest, in about a week from now.

What we expect from the playtest

We want to see what people think of subROV, and we want to make sure the tutorials work (you don't get stuck, don't get bored, and actually learn how to operate the ROV).
