I’m looking for some beta testers for my game. It’s parser and puzzle-based.
A little background: I’m a math professor at a liberal arts college, and my hope is that the game is something I could give to my students as a way to explore mathematical concepts in a different venue (interactive fiction) than they usually see. It’s not designed to be a tutorial like “Lists and Lists” but more like “The Chinese Room,” so that the player engages mathematical ideas by solving traditional IF-style puzzles.
Length: It depends on the player, although my guess is that the game takes 4-6 hours to play through.
I’d like a few testers who think they have the time to play all the way through the game over the next couple of weeks. I’d particularly love to have testers with a wide range of math backgrounds so that I can see how well I’m doing at translating mathematics into IF.
I’m also willing to trade beta testing.
If you’re interested, please reply to this message or PM me.
Thanks!
