I love how pokémon originally took a lot of inspiration from bug collecting. Your irl Heracross is cute ><

I love when gamers, streamers do indie let's play and share them with the dev + with a positive message on their itch page. Their audience gets to discover a new game, and the dev knows someone actually played it^^

Yeah, I agree. It's sad how often QA gets taken advantage of. I've set my own boundaries: I only test public builds, and I don't accept NDA work unless it's paid. If you can't show the experience afterward, you need compensation to make it worthwhile.

Hey, that's really thoughtful of you. I do volunteer testing as well. Just make sure to set a cap. Do a few hours,or a couple days max. I found that games especially with regression type bugs can spiral into weeks. I usually stick to early builds or demos to keep it manageable. I wish you luck!!
