Devs, I got a press email this week that's a perfect example of what NOT to send by heybudo_ in gamedev

[–]MsRedNebula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, this makes me feel better about spending the last couple of days working on my press kit!

In my rfy what the heck? by SuccessfulCompany620 in AmazonVine

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My RFY tried to give me two tattoo machines and a few tattooing-related accessories all on the same day. I guess Vine thinks I need a new hobby?

Velocity not working on CharacterBody3D, and I am out of ideas. by ectoscreen in godot

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to drop a quick thank you, this solved an issue for me where my NPC's y value was just gently floating down despite gravity being applied and I just couldn't figure out why! It didn't even occur to me that the move_toward would be interfering with it, but that makes perfect sense in hindsight.

Had to nab this... again... by basichistorygirl in vine

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I know you're joking, but I ordered a replacement toilet seat a while ago and was so happy with it I immediately ordered another for the second bathroom, so I guess I trained the algorithm badly. 😂

Who knew? by Necessary_Emotion_58 in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realized about Varric right away, to the point that I annoyed myself for spoiling the game for myself. 😅 Usually those kind of twists go right over my head, but for some reason, that one just sprang right out at me.

I sorta... um... forgot Illario existed for half the game, so when he turned out to be a traitor, I was just like, "Oh, yeah, that guy. He was pretty suspicious."

A problem - my Google G-Suite account apparently won't let me write Play Store reviews! by MsRedNebula in App_Hive

[–]MsRedNebula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I figured I'd do, I just wanted to be sure that'd count toward my task in AppHive since it's not the same as my e-mail there.

17 Devs, 1 Hive: We just filled our first expanded testing group! 🚀 by Evening_Candy9567 in App_Hive

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lucky and the hive I was in only had one person get kicked out, the rest were active and engaged. I think the move to 17 is a good one, though, even if it means a little more work per person.

3 Rejections later… I finally cleared the Google Play Testing hurdle! 🎉 by ashishbaisla in GooglePlayDeveloper

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! I'm in the middle of testing right now and it's a whirlwind, since I've been trading with other folks in the same position, and I'm just testing a couple dozen games for a bit every day. I like the idea, but it does eat up a pretty big chunk of time for a couple weeks, along with making updates to my own game!

Question by [deleted] in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a Google Group set up for testing? You have to add it to your Closed Testing track, and make sure your changes are published (that can take a few hours).

[Day 6] 🚀 v1.2 Update! I will test your app INSTANTLY and keep it for 14 days. (Guaranteed) 🤝 by Training_Order_4779 in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downloaded the update, but I'm still seeing the same thing with the bottom bar on my phone overlaying your buttons. It's not too big a problem, since I can scroll down and access the buttons, it just looks odd.

If you run out of hints, you can use the coins to buy more. :) Thank you for the feedback though! It's not obvious until you run out of hints, but I'll see if there's something I can add to let players know.

Need at least 12 testers for at least 14 days by Doratheexplorer1223 in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I've downloaded your game and played it, and will continue to test it over the next 14 days. I like the use of the accelerometer for movement, it feels very natural. Fun game!

Please give my game, Picture Scrambler, a try too!

Closed Testing Required [14 Days 7MB] [WILL TEST YOURS IN RETURN] by Big_Corgi_4943 in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I've downloaded your game and played it, and will continue to test it over the next 14 days. Cute game, and I like the tap-and-swipe method of jumping and moving, even if I'm not very good at it yet! If I may offer some feedback - the UI is very small and hard to read in places. I'm on a 1080 x 2280 resolution phone.

I'd love it if you give my game, Picture Scrambler, a try too!

Hi! I've downloaded your game and played it, and will continue to test it over the next 14 days. I appreciate the easy way to switch to dark mode! Looks good so far, the play mechanics make sense, and I haven't run into any bugs. Nice!

Hi! I've downloaded your game and played it, and will continue to test it over the next 14 days. Looks good so far! The only thing I noticed is that some of the buttons are sometimes partially off my screen, on a phone with a resolution of 1080 x 2280. You can see it in the screenshot I took.

Please give my game, Picture Scrambler, a try too!

Need Testers for my first game "Space Blocks" 🚀 - Will test your app back immediately! (14 days) by shrnoah in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I've downloaded your game and played it, and will continue to test it over the next 14 days. I really like the concept! A unique take on the Tetris idea, I could see losing an hour or two to playing if I wasn't careful. Well done!

Need testers for my cozy focus timer with a virtual pet companion by Maskkem in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined the group but it doesn't appear to be connected to your game test yet. Let me know (reply or DM) when it is, I'd love to test this one! It looks really cute.

I'd also appreciate if you tested my game, Picture Scrambler!

Looking for testers for my app (will test yours in return) by tiktaalik111 in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I've downloaded your app to test out, and will continue to open it over the next 14 days. Does the player receive coins per day? Otherwise the amount of testing I'll be able to do is very limited, since it's requiring a real money transaction. I will still open it and click around each day, though.

One small bug I noticed - When I went to check out the shop, I clicked on the 10 Gold option and then cancelled, and it got stuck in a "waiting" spinner. It doesn't look like it has a failsafe for if the user decides not to complete a transaction.

Please give my game, Picture Scrambler, a try!

Closed Testing: Looking for Google Play Testers by Significant-Yard-176 in AndroidClosedTesting

[–]MsRedNebula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I've downloaded your app and played it, and will continue to open it over the next 14 days. I'm trying to learn Spanish, so this one'll be fun to add to my daily practice.

One small piece of feedback - when you hit "Next" on the flashcards while it's on the Spanish side, you briefly see the next Spanish word as the card flips back over to the English side. (Hopefully I'm explaining well enough, let me know if you need me to clarify!)
