Ok, thx for clarifying, but I still have questions


Yourself said that small game devs are not willing to pay anything for their games, and that's true, unless your help is really ground breaking for them (preferably if you can help they earning money as well). If game devs aren't willing to pay, why they would pay you if you just play games? Also, you mentioned your testimonials, but let's be honest, people will always call you an angel if you help them, even more considering you said that you just play games, while they are saying you really boosted their game (I read your whole post btw)


And more, you said that if I don't see value in your stuff, I can just ignore the post, but every game dev sees value on playtesting, except that as I mentioned before, why would I pay you to playtest if there are whole communities for that? And you said for me to comprehend your work, that's why I'm making questions. You can try to convince me your work is better than I think, and then I can consider paying you one day (I need active players for my games, but 10 minutes isn't quite enough), or you can just ignore me if you really consider my questions useless...

Not a problem. Happy to clarify. 

Okay, look here at what you wrote. You answered the question for me so, thank you kindly.

1st Paragraph

"If game devs aren't willing to pay, why they would pay you if you just play games?"

2nd paragraph

"but every game dev sees value on playtesting"

Haha that's why.

Re: Testimonials - "You mentioned your testimonials, but let's be honest, people will always call you an angel if you help them, even more considering you said that you just play games, while they are saying you really boosted their game." 

Not true. You can't force people to do anything they don't want to do. Even if you ask or beg.

I'm not sure what your goal is as a game developer. If you're hobbyist, the service may not be for you. If you are hobbyist wanting to transition to be professional then, that's good. I looked at your catalog of games, but do not see any comments on any. Not that it means anything negative, it's just interesting.

Ok, I'm just a hobbyist anyways, but I'm considering to start getting a more professional role in game dev. You mentioned that I don't have comments on my games (true 😭), but paying for that still feels off. But you have a point, I need playtesters if I want to do something more serious to my games. Thx for clarifying!

Not a problem. If you have more q's , let me know. Happy Developing!
