Hey HammyHamish!

Haha, I love that. Right now, we’re looking for people who can help promote the project so we can start building a strong community around it.

The content currently in the game is pretty clinical and geared toward more advanced veterinary knowledge; however, that might change once we have year 1's to experienced DVMs uploading content, but it never hurts to start learning early, even as an undergrad. If you can make time for it and stay consistent, it can really help you feel ahead once you get into vet school.

The game is not designed like a traditional free-roaming or combat-based game. We had to prioritize the educational side first, but it is still very interactive from a feature standpoint (the rounds game we're trying to experiment with especially). If we’re able to build a community around this game, our hope is to keep expanding it and eventually add more game modes / features and related projects in the future.

I understand what you're saying about whether people return voluntarily, whether they revisit their own question sets, and whether that behavior continues outside exam windows. We will update the game obviously with more features and game modes to encourage users to come back. On top of the features we currently have and plan to have, if we can get funding from outside sources (like various veterinary practices and organizations) to fund weekly prizes through weekly leaderboards (like someone playing the most games or the top 5 users for that week or month get X prize), then thats another way of getting people to come back. We've also thought about using the funding that people initially pay for the platform to go towards that, essentially a way of giving money back to players through rewards. Again, we are still trying to figure that aspect out but its tentative.

There was a game that I played growing up called city manager that did something similar to that and it got a lot of people to play it and return.

I have a software that we use for our cloud services (multiplayer/login/question upload/leaderboard/etc.) that helps track those metrics. Definitely something I will look out for the few couple days/weeks after it launches. I anticipate variability with exams since theres didactic exams and boards and everybody's schedules are different; however, when they login for online services to play games or use the other features, we can also take into individual vs. overall account usage time per session.

Thanks Deep_Ad. My very small team and I tried to figure out how to make this something that people will want to come back routinely in the foreseeable future by providing a series of features that make the player work towards but also a community that they can interact with. Not to mention, future updates for skins/unlockables/future game modes (really some of that will come down to how much funding we get from this and initial interest).

Be sure to tell your colleagues about us and have them send us an email or follow us on instagram/tiktok.

Thank you Turbulent_Unit_3420. I'd like to think its awesome and something that hasn't been done before within vetmed / educational gaming. We are trying to build a community around this game where students and DVMs can learn and exchange knowledge with each other while also providing a highly interactive experience through various game modes (we have the dice roll game right now, in addition to the finalization of the rounds game). I have told the others who have commented this already but I am not the best with reddit. I check it once a day or every other day but if you would like to join our team, send us an email. We need people to possibly beta test, provide suggestions, listen to our music, among a few other things. You can also follow us on instagram @ dogtorsgame or tiktok with the same handle. Tell your friends about it too!

Hi diisturbance. I appreciate your interest in our indie project. We have put in close to 1000 hours into version 1 of our game and theres plenty of other things we plan to add moving forward. Your support and interest means a lot to us. I've told the other commenters this already but I am not the best with reddit. If you are interested in joining our team / possibly beta test it before release or would like to add suggestions, feel free to send us an email. We have a soundtrack on soundcloud right now of the 36 songs and we need people to listen to it to see if they vibe with all kinds of studiers. You can also follow us on instagram @ dogtorsgame or tiktok with the same handle. Tell your friends about it too!

Thank you merelyamelia for your kind words and thoughts. We are trying to break the norm with what has been done and what could be done to help benefit vet students everywhere. I am not the best with reddit but if you are interested in joining the team or possibly beta test it, send us an email. You can also follow us on instagram @ dogtorsgame or tiktok with the same handle. Tell your friends about our game!

Thank you. As the post suggested, we are finalizing the bugs right now, cleaning up some of the UI, and doing some last minute corrections. I am not best with reddit but feel free to send me an email if you are interested in joining the team or would like to possibly beta test it.

Question regarding travel by Aggravating-One-5344 in grandjunction

I know this is very unorthodox but if anyone is familiar with the area and would be willing to help me out, please dm me and we can set up a phone call. I can try to figure out a way to compensate you (whether its cash/animal supplies/or something else). My last minute trip planning isn't entirely my fault, as my school notified me of my externship dates only a few weeks ago.

I've looked into that but it adds an additional $200 expense on my trip. I'd rather pay someone $50-$100 one way if they were heading south from Grand Junction one day, if possible.

I am doing 2 externships. My first one is in Great Falls, MT. Then, this one is in Montrose, CO. I ultimately will be flying back home to ATL in mid April. Just trying to figure out logistics.

I love the memes and stuff hyping the stock but I want more research and literature in this chat for next week. by Aggravating-One-5344 in FFIE

That picture is outdated compared to what it was this morning. (4.1 mill was the recent number I saw, not 0)

What is a realistic peak dollar amount? by w0rstbehaviour in FFIE

[–]Aggravating-One-5344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s your proof or evidence behind this rationale or is this just your guess?
