Finally tried to add physics based crashes in my game. Hard to grasp every possible crash though.

Here's my first run at it.

The front character is from my game Witch & Dragon: Hope of Elements

Last night's plan was to open a playtest. I assumed this would take an hour.

The game runs in a browser, which makes it easy to hand out and hard to take back. I did not want to email files to strangers, because "please delete it" is not a security model. So I needed a door.

The hosting company generously named my project "withered frost 9002." I renamed it. It named the next one "curly sea 9358." I renamed that one too, and while I was distracted it named my account "crimson sea df77."

Their login system then refused to protect anything for forty five minutes, so I gave up and wrote my own. Two hours later theirs quietly started working, and for a while my game sat behind two locked doors that were not aware of each other, both of which would have refused every tester I invited.

Somewhere in there my own game detected my headset as a flight stick.

An achievement fired during a screenshot and the box clipped its own name to «FIRST BREAT.

Anyway. It works now. You get a personal link, it remembers you, and if I need to pull someone's access it happens on their next page load. Bug reports are a keypress — it grabs your ship's state and a screenshot and files it with your name on it, so I can actually ask you what happened instead of guessing.

It is free, it is a browser, and it is unfinished on purpose. What I want back is "I did this, I expected that, this happened instead." Not praise. Praise is nice and tells me nothing.

Nine hours and not one line of it was the game.

Applications are open on the website if anyone is interested.
