Easily Communicate with Testers

You can now limit news updates to testers through key groups and gather their feedback on changes.


Remember when we rolled out different types of game keys last week? Well, we’ve already built upon that system.

Check out my post about managing game access through keys if you haven’t already!

The current news system allows you to send news to all of your followers, while also making the post public on your game page. This is great for announcing new releases of public games and posting progress as you work on your game.

But what if you only want to communicate with a specific group of people, like your testers? Well, now you can!

Simply create a news post as you normally would and select the User key group you’d like to send to. Far easier than pie!

Only the people in that key group will have access to the news post, and if they’re following your game, they’ll get a notification as well.

I think this is a really integrated solution for gathering feedback as you develop. Write up a news post on what’s new/what to test, and then simply send it out to a specific tester key group. Only they will have access to the news, and are able to offer feedback through comments on the post!

Ohh, what's this? You can see all the stickers in a sticker pack before buying/opening now. Finally.

My custom-made controller. Click click.

Look where I'm at

All right, time to place my haul. I need mastery of these stickers.

Ah yes, programming documentation.

Here we go!

Oof, got three sticker packs and got super unlucky with my drop rates for the star haha. I gotta master them all though!

After about 6 months, I started working on my custom controller again for retro gaming!

I designed the PCBs for the analog sticks, got them made, and check them out! They fit in perfectly.

Next step, building out the whole main PCB.

Modded a Game Gear! Took a long time, but I'm really happy with the results. New screen, speakers, shell, rechargeable batteries, all that. Even has an FM radio chip in it so that when it runs Master System games, it has better music.
