Hello everyone,

I was wondering, since i am also building an audiogame what is perhaps known in the community as your_adventure. but the guidelines in the forumlist of this topic, tells early alpha. but your_adventure is heading for alpha 3 with various solid mechanics and after alpha 4 or after this alpha 3 i will head for beta. not sure yet.

so my question is, can i post alpha version 3 in new releases or should this belong in this room (developersroom).

appologies if this topic is in the wrong place, i thought that questions to developers can be asked here. if it is, please dark move it to the right place.
i'll await the answers.

Hello,
the question is:
why would you not want it in new releases?


second question is, why is it still in alpha?
from this form you would get players with more of a technical background playing your game.
from new releases you would get a lot more people playing your game, but you would gather a reputation and have to deal with people not knowing what to do if they broke your game.
Here no one cares if your game doesn't go anywhere, but in new releases you may get some people who will bug you if you don't update.

hello,

the answer on your first question is pretty simple, i don't know why i don't want to post it in new releases. i got confused by the look of a new releases room and a developers room and started to ask myself where i can post the release when it is ready ...
but now it is clear to me.

the answer on your second question, why it is still in alpha. that answer is also pretty simple. however the game contains several solid mechanics now there are still some i have to experiment with. as soon as i know that i have hammered all the difficult parts out and that all the mechanics i need are solid, i will continue with beta, wich is hopefully soon.

hey there
I don't know if its still unclear but basically the way I do it is I ue this forum for coding problems that those technical nurds, er, very nice people will maybe answer *offers cookies*

Usually if I have a stable version that works, does what I want and with minimal bugs, i'll release it on the new releases room.
New releases really means if you have made something new and want to release it, put it there!
anyways see you later as I have developers from this forum chasing me with torches and pitch forks!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
