should i just release the public beta already

(see image
transcript in alt text)

🤍 -> "yes!! release the files!!!"
🖤 -> "no >:C more playtest and improvement"

#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #solodev #godot #godotengine #pixelart 🎮
only a few of my playtesters actually did their job (rest were too busy or lazy) so i only had that much feedback to improve the game with (dont get me wrong the ones that actually did their work done did good) but ive tested the game myself and im pretty satisfied with how it is so far my main concern is whether or not the game is actually fit to be released into public beta watching a game is very different from playing it you guys might enjoy my devlogs but will you actually have fun playing the game in its current state i am afraid to disappoint my beloved supporters so what do you think i should do
September 24, 2025 at 8:49 PM
senseixiongmao.bsky.social
currently rolling out private beta to my playtesters
and once the game is deemed suitable for the public
public beta will be released

#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #solodev #godot #godotengine #pixelart 🎮
trashmageddon's thumbnail art for gamejolt the title "trashmageddon" is crudely written in the middle below it is the subtitle "recycled" in bold metallic text in the background are silhouettes of mountains of trash in the middle is the tallest mountain to its left in the sky is a faint image of a trash can with eyes (scavenger, the game mascot) to its right in the sky is a faint image of a home cleaning robot (vroomba, perhaps a secondary mascot)

#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #solodev #godotengine #pixelart 🎮
screenshot from the completed tutorial screen a trash can with eyes (scavenger) jumps forwards lifting its lid it has a speech bubble where it communicates through images and symbols it is showing a turret-like machine (six-shooter) shooting bullets at a home cleaning robot (vroomba)
