Getting ready for v0.6.10

As you might have read elsewhere, the v0.6.10 release is getting really close now. Most of the parts needed for the release is completed, but before we can release it to Android market, we still need to do an alpha & beta period with those of you here on the forum that want to help test the game. With all our combined efforts we should be able to find most of the critical bugs before we release the new version to the larger audience at Android market. Your help testing the new version is greatly appreciated, not only by me but by the thousands of players on Android Market.

Now, to make the upcoming alpha & beta period as effective as possible, I would like us to assign different responsibilities in what we focus our testing on. For example, some of you might be more interested in the new skill system, finding all the bugs in that. Some others might be more interested in focusing on the new quest content.

If you want to help make the game even better before we release it, please pick any of the following items that you would like to focus on. Also, please post a reply here so we know who focuses on what.
  1. Verify spelling and correct English wording on new dialogue
  2. Verify that none of the new quests are un-completable.
  3. Verify graphical glitches in the new maps.
  4. Verify game balancing of new monsters and items. Too hard? / Too easy?
  5. Verify that the new skills work as advertised.
  6. Verify gameplay with the virtual d-pad.
  7. Verify that the bulk dropping/selling interface works as expected.
I will post the first alpha as soon as we have a couple of people focusing on different areas of the new content. Might be this weekend even :)

Thanks in advance! Let's make this game even better together.

Excited! I would love to help out. I'd look at No. 7, the bulk buying and selling. I don't want too much responsibility. And that seems the easiest one for me.

Excellent work Captain Awesome. (even though you keep spoiling our number game)!

I'm also really looking forward to this update, I can do whatever is needed (Except Number 1, I think a native speaker should do that). I'm only a bit scared not to find some huge bug
but let's hope for the best :D

I will take #5!

As a software engineer, its a change of pace to wear my QA hat.

I have a "test" save game that has an extremely massive amount of items. I would be happy to test the bulk dropping/selling interface works as expected.

I would be more than happy to keep an eye on #1- English and #6- using the d-pad. I usually have a pretty good eye for spelling mistakes/mistypes, and I'm looking forward to playing with the d-pad.

Woo-hoo for testing phase!! :D

Excellent. Thank you in advance to everyone that wants to help alpha and beta test the new version. Please report any bugs and issues that you might find on either this thread or the "alpha test v0.6.10"-thread.

Together, we are making this one of the best open-source RPG:s there is on Android Market.

Looking forward to releasing the real version on Android Market soon!
