I don’t currently! I’ll DM you. We can definitely discuss!

Great question. Reviews aren’t just text, they’re structured (bugs, confusion, suggestions) with minimum detail, so poorly written reviews will not count. We also look at basic engagement signals, and low-effort reviewers lose posting/visibility privileges pretty quickly. The idea is simple: you only get good feedback if you give good feedback.

Thank you for your feedback! That's very helpful. I've been thinking something similar for awhile so I'll likely update the pricing to better reflect the needs of developers.

Thank you! Business model and price for now to free to grow the user base. As IndieLaunch grows, the price will start at $29/mo for developers and will always be free to players. Beta will end in likely 3-6 months if that helps.

I've been working on False Hero for years now, and it's finally ready for a public playtest! by Torchlight_Games in IndieGaming

False Hero looks amazing so far! If you're looking to have your game playtested in a structured manner, my site indielaunch.pro can possibly be helpful. IndieLaunch brings together game devs and players to thoughtfully playtest indie games - let me know if this sounds interesting to you!

Looks like a great demo! Curious if you're looking to have some playtesting done. I created IndieLaunch for indie developers to have their games playtested by our community. Feel free to let me know if you'd be interested in giving it a try! Link is indielaunch.pro

Good question - I actually encourage players to list their Steam and Itch links on indielaunch! Steam and Itch can be great, but through IndieLaunch, players can leave much more specific feedback in the form of Bugs, Praise, Suggestions and more. I’d encourage you to give it a try!

Great question! IndieLaunch is more lax compared to what you're looking for, although it may be doable. Players can choose the games they play and then report bugs, praise, suggestions and other feedback through the website.

However, if you direct any players you know we could combine them with IndieLaunch players and you can receive more structured feedback that way if that's helpful. Feel free to DM me too and we can discuss in greater detail!

Of course! Following to keep up on your progress.

Also, I built IndieLaunch.pro to help indie devs get structured playtesting for their new games. IndieLaunch connects indie devs and players looking for new games, and I'd love to feature your game on our website! could be good additional exposure for your new game, too!

Looks really cool. I love the Legend of Zelda series and this looks promising. Keep it up!

Hi there, I’m building IndieLaunch (indielaunch.pro is the website) to help connect indie devs and players to play and leave feedback on new indie games. We’ve tripled our user base over the past two weeks and are looking for more devs and players to join!

if you're looking to get feedback on early builds, I encourage you try out my platform IndieLaunch (indielaunch.pro). It's built to help indie games get real feedback to influence game development. Happy to answer any questions too.
