The time has come to start sharing Watch Out for Goblins! with the world. We are looking for players interested in helping us playtest in advance of our early access release. If that sounds like something you want to help with you can now sign up for the WOFG! Playtest from our store page. [b]You can sign up to be a playtester right now, but first here are some things to keep in mind:[/b] [list] [*] The playtest will be time limited. This means you will eventually lose access to the playtest build. We plan to run the playtest for several months before replacing it with a publicly accessible demo version of WOFG! [*] Save data is not guaranteed to carry over between playtest versions. You might lose all your progress (but that’s okay because the current game is very sand-boxy, there’s not much progress to make). [*] You may run into performance issues. We are trying to strike a balance between big open levels with lots of things to interact with and maintaining a consistent framerate. We’ve done some optimization on this build, and we have plans for more, but you should be aware that the game may not run well, especially on older hardware. [*] You will encounter some bugs. We think we’ve squished the most game breaking ones, but there are likely still some lurking here and there. We are hoping that playtesters can help us find and squish more bugs before we launch the game properly. [/list] With these warnings in mind you should head over to the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2887920/Watch_Out_For_Goblins/]Watch Out for Goblins! store page[/url] and sign up for the playtest. [b]But what can you do in the Watch Out for Goblins! playtest? [/b] [list] [*] Be a Goblin! Walk, run, jump, grab, punch, shove, and kick. All using an active ragdoll character blended with motion capture animations. [*] Explore a sandbox level to collect over thirty power cogs. [*] Interact with dozens of obstacles and contraptions for wacky physics interactions. [*] Discover minigames: Smash yourself into obstacles to rack up points in a Goblin Ordeal, race through the checkpoints in a Goblin Footrace, and challenge your friends to competition with a rousing game of Goblin Sacker. [*] Meet aggressive goblin NPCs that chase you down and give you a shove. [*] Drown in some sludge, knock yourself out with a barrel, fall off a mountain and land head first in a pile of dirt, and do it all with 1-4 players in split screen multiplayer. [/list] If you made it this far, thanks for reading. :) We are very excited to start collecting feedback about the game we’ve been working on. I hope you consider joining the playtest. If you do, I hope you enjoy playing this early version of WOFG! I hope it makes you laugh. Most of all I hope you share your feedback with us so we can continue to improve the game as we work towards an early access release. We will keep our eyes on the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/2973890]Steam Community page for the playtest [/url]for any feedback posted there. We also [url=https://discord.gg/a5GtRbtnUe]have a humble discord server[/url] where you can chat with us (the developers) directly. Thanks again for reading all the way to the end. For now, there’s nothing more to say except this: wherever you go and whatever you do, always, always, Watch Out For Goblins!
