JLBH REPORTING FOR DUTY
Bored mod: you called?
Thank you, @Havenstone
You even capitalized my P for me. 
I was going to ask for that, but didn’t want to seem too needy.
That does suck. At least you had a few dedicated Beta testers who put the effort in.
It’s a very fun thing to do in my free time, testing games, and I feel awful if I don’t send feedback at all as I feel like I’m just taking advantage of ‘free full length demo’.
LOOKING FOR TESTERS!
Version 1.16 is now up! Thanks again, wonderful testers, lots of great ideas.
The doors are wide open. I’ll take anyone who will email me with errors/suggestions. Now is the time! Read the first post in this thread for instructions.
Some stats, if you’re interested:
I’ve had 50 people email me for the link. One person backed out due to unexpected events and politely told me so.
22/49 never responded with a single error or suggestion. They took the link, presumably played the game, and never actually helped with the beta test at all.
On a positive note, I’ve had 15 wonderful people who have replied multiple times with pages of great ideas and errors for me to correct. The remaining 12 responded with a single error or suggestion of some kind.
All-in-all, the beta test is going great! The game is polishing up nicely.
@Lucid
That’s horrible (but not surprising), the amount of people who didn’t bother making any comment at all. I think some people read ‘beta test’ as ‘free full-length demo’ 
I sent you an email. I promise to send feedback. In fact it would probably be impossible to shut me up.
if i can could i test the game
The testers who have responded have been WONDERFUL. I’ve gotten so many great suggestions and fixed so many errors. I simply can’t say enough good things about all these great people. Some of those who haven’t responded have had good reasons, and those that just did it to play a free game? Oh well, the good guys greatly outweigh the freeloaders. 
Version 1.17 is now up.
After much debate, I’ve decided to go with the American spelling of things to reflect the location of a fictional American city, instead of Canadian/British. So, if anyone sees anything I should change (ex. colour, centre, defence…), please include it in with the other errors.
I’ve also added a hint in the game about pushing your crew harder to make more money. It was a delayed result, so I suspect that those of you who were short on cash weren’t using this. From what I’ve seen, many players are finding the money needed for tribute, so they may have saw this delay easier than others.
Also, just a reminder to read the first post in the thread to join the beta test. My junkmail filter is empty and I have invited and responded to every email sent.
I’d like to be in it
i would like to test this please \m/
Version 1.18 is now up and ready. It features 2 new endings, the Bitter Boss Ending, which is a bit of a failed ending, and the super cool Senator Ending. Lots of stuff all the way through on this one.
As always, if anyone wants to beta test, please read the first message on the thread and follow the instruction.
I’ve emailed you.
Lucid am up for it
Well to be fair, some people might just not have any feedback, I’ve playtested some games which just didn’t leave me with much to say, others in which I’ve had oodles of feedback.
Sorry I wasn’t able to help much with errors Lucid. School has been keeping me busy. If I can find something to help with in the new wave, I’ll try to remember to send an email.
Monday I should be back to sending feedback, been on Spring Break all this week so no chance of wifi.
@savagescarface @JLBH Welcome aboard everyone!
@stsword I think that after 149k words, people would find something to leave feedback about. I understand that sometimes unexpected things come up, so I hold no grudges against those silent testers. I just thought I’d share my numbers because it’s interesting for other developers to see.
@MSox99 @Scrivener No worries, I appreciate all the errors/suggestions you both have already sent. If you find the time, I’m always looking for more.
Big new update! I keep telling myself that I have to stop adding new content. I really need to focus solely on the errors, but I just can’t help myself! Lots of new relationship scenes in this update. More options found all over the place and a new self-promoting opening. Here is version 1.23. Same link as before. Check it out!
I’M STILL LOOKING FOR TESTERS. Please read the first post in this thread for instructions.
I would like to participate-but I have to tell you in advance it might take a few days for me to send you back my review, since my college exams are going on right now.
