Hey Deevs!
We have a big update for you! It’s playtest time! Development on Rootknot is going really well! We're incredibly excited about the progress and can't wait to show you more.
Now we need your help! 😎🫵
We're planning to start playtesting over the next week. Join our Discord Server and get the beta tester role. This will make it easier for us to keep you updated and tag the right people when playtest sessions are ready. Here’s the link to our server:
Playtests happen in a Discord voice channel.
You can pick a time slot from our calendar when you’re available.
We’ll be testing the game on Steam, using a beta branch. As a playtester, you'll get more instructions.
If it’s your first time playtesting Rootknot, we’ll message you a few days before the session with everything you need, including the key and extra instructions. Please don’t play the game before the session, though; we really want to capture your first impressions and reactions🥹
The playtest sessions take approximately 60 minutes.
We would love to record your screen and your voice during the session for future reference, but only with your permission.
At the end of some playtests, there may be an optional feedback survey to fill in.
You’re free to play the latest version of the game on your own after the playtest, as long as the build is accessible.
Looking forward to playing together and hearing your feedback. Thanks so much for being here and supporting the project!👹
To add some flavor to this news, here’s a sneak peek at the new design of our in-game shop (the mole won't always be so angry! promise!):
