We are seeking additional beta testers to thoroughly put TNW through its paces ahead of release in mid-February.
The job involves frequent play sessions, making good bug reports, and close text-based communication on Skype. We're releasing soon so being able to start ASAP would be a big plus. Previous testing experience also a plus.
What you get in return is a set of permanent Steam keys for not only The Next World but also other AAD Productions titles such as cult hit Euclidean ( Store.steampowered.com ) and FRONTIERS ( Store.steampowered.com ). That's over $30 worth of games, plus a credit in the game as an official QA tester.
ABOUT TNW
Summary:
TNW is a visual novel/strategy hybrid in the vein of The Banner Saga, King of Dragon Pass and Oregon Trail, with an emphasis on planning and decision-making over combat. Keep as many colonists alive as possible by making the tough decisions which will determine how your adventure unfolds. Build colony structures, salvage wreckage, resolve problems with multiple branching outcomes, and manage your colony’s dwindling supplies; all while playing through an intense story of intrigue, sabotage, desperation and survival, by writer Ryan A. Span (FRONTIERS, Mount&Blade;, Euclidean).
Engine: Ren'Py
Style: Hard-ish SF, with a retro bent reminiscent of late-70s/early-80s science-fiction
Work communication will take place on Skype. A good command of English is required.
