Prototype Playtest & Analytics Platform

A platform where indie devs upload their 'ugly cube' prototypes and get guaranteed playtime from anonymous testers. The platform tracks exact playtime, drop-off points, and requires testers to answer a short survey, solving the need for 'blunt strangers' and objective analytics.

Community Voices

Real quotes from Reddit comments that inspired this opportunity

  • Before diving headfirst into a project and spending months or even years on development, is it actually possible to gauge whether a concept has the potential
  • I say this as someone who failed to do this step and I regret it.
  • Internal debate has excellent graphics, but terrible user analytics.
  • A tiny prototype, one clear player promise, and a few blunt strangers will tell you more than a month of internal debate.
  • setup a single analytic that tracks the time a player plays your game... Anything less than an hour is a bust
  • Getting real players to test your core loop early tells you instantly if the game is actually engaging
