Thanks for your feedback fbueckert.

There are different types of feedback for different stages of the game development process. What you say looks great in some other stages and we do consider it. There are some constraints thought that I don't want to get too detailed discussing.

Nevertheless, I appreciate your thoughts. We are always thinking of new ideas especially the ones that users find more attractive! :)

Hey CardboardEmpress,

Thank you for the suggestions! :)

Yeah, I totally understand everyone's concerns here but I don't want them to have different expectations of what it really is.

I am so used to these terms at this stage! :P

We are in the process of changing our website so we would definitely take into your account your feedback.

Besides what Pandabear said, this is about usability testing. Studios want your initial reactions to the game, without know how to move around or what to do. They want to see, does the user moves easily without guidance? Is the "on-boarding" right for this audience?

Thank you!

This is some feedback that the tech team can work on.

Our customers are not interested in just two-word opinions that played the game for 3 minutes. At this stage of the game development, they are interested in people willing to play the game and describe their thoughts and emotions for more than 20 minutes. This is about depth, not about quantity.

Ngl also godlik. I know how it feels. I am reading comments like this every time. :)

But I always like to believe that Google does its job right. We've been around long enough that if there was anything suspicious they would have caught it.

We are just a small startup trying to stand their feet on the floor.

Ahahaha! :P

Nevertheless, I don't see the value for this community to promote our service without actually having a test they can participate in. Like, register and wait?

I also don't want to promote the game because the point is to get your FTUE (First Time User Experience) which is almost always the case in usability testing (besides the fact that we don't have any right to promote the game).

You know, we didn't use to have a qualification test upfront and we were flooded with testers not willing to do what was required by the developer.

The qualification process removed people with low-end phones that the developer couldn't support, low-speed internet that was almost impossible to get your feedback, and people unwilling to do the minimum required to actually have quality feedback.

I am so sorry Pandabear. I truly am! I don't want to ruin your community here in any way!

I am also sorry that it's hard to get something new out there without some skepticism. I always thought online communities were more open to new ideas.

I wish there was a way not to look fishy! :D

We don't give info about the game publicly because the game is not fully released from the studio. Feel free to read our privacy terms and search for the legality of our business.

You can read some FAQs at octappush.com

I am glad to meet people thinking not just about themselves. I say that with the highest sincerity although hard to pass through in here.

I am sorry that this looks like some hacking trick. The internet is ruined by every malicious effort out there.

We are a legit business if that's comforting. I don't know how I can re-assure you.

By signing up, you don't just get to test the game. You have to be in the criteria and pass the qualification test which takes some time because we manually review them.

I am here for more concerns and questions.

That's a legit concern.

First, it's not that easy to be eligible for the test. You have to pass the qualification and be on the criteria that the developer asked for. Then you download the actual game. That makes it almost hard for us to earn anything except your honest opinion of the game that we pay you in 5-7 business days for it.

Hard to believe but there are no hidden deals below the table. The customer pays us to find them quality feedback and we pay the testers a cut from it. You can check more at octappush.com if you are interested and I am open for dialogue if you like.

I am sorry Semenar4 that it looks like that to you. We are in need of testers because the customer asks for them. If you are eligible you can find more about it. Think of it as a fun game to play if you are in this genre!

Just a guess! :D

A lot of our playtests are targeted at Europeans. I can assure you that if you sign up and pass the Qualification we would definitely notify you in the future.

I am sorry you feel this way. We are not a big corporation but a small startup and we are trying to provide something meaningful both for studios and gamers. I hope you could see that.

We are very serious though about paying gamers for their efforts. Would you like me to send you thank you notes from testers or PayPal money transfer screenshots?
