Need 3 or 4 testers

**MBchrono** · 09-28-2011, 01:52 PM

Yes, another thread requesting testers. I have a few buddies testing, but they have never played any other custom story. So I figured I would get a couple people that have had experience with other people's stories.

I wanted to create a unique story and somewhat unique setting. The key thing to remember is obviously this isn't done. I want things to be polished as possible, so I want every step of the game to be right. The first level, and about a third of the second level are complete, with 2 more levels planned. I have a buddy with professional sound equipment that will be doing voice overs. Until he completes them and an original score, I have placeholder sounds. My voice overs are awful, but just in there mainly for fun.

Anyways, enough with the disclaimer crap. The working title for the story is "Mobbed". Below I have a couple screenshots of the first level, as well as the brief outline I wrote when we first started. I am in the Air Force and work fairly long hours during the week, so the bulk of the work is done on the weekends. I am off to work now, and will answer any questions when I get home tonight.

Opening Scene:
You are involved in organized crime. You eventually get in too deep and it looks like you
are about to be killed. You are taken to a graveyard, tied up and in a daze from a blow to the head.
As fresh earth is being dumped on you in your shallow grave, you hear screams of terror. After passing out
for a length of time, you awaken and pull yourself out of the grave. To your horror there is the blood and bodies of your would be murderers.

I'd be happy to test your map for you. What I can do is make a video of my playthrough, which can then be sent privately to you. In my video, I will offer suggestions and opinions through commentary. I've done this a couple times before and have had some pretty good results. PM me if you're interested. Smile

The first pictures looks nice, I'm not really sure about the others since they all look the same outside area.

I can test, I love testing maps or betas and give your nice feedback then Smile

Yeah that is just kinda showin the outside area. The second map takes place in the prohibition era tunnels under the graveyard. That level isn't complete so I didn't want to take shots of it yet.

*Edit* Uploaded a couple more pics.

I would absolutely love to test your story.

I have played a number of custom stories (about over 15) Last week I tested a custom story beta called "Family", and gave a 700 word response to the creator, full of how it could be better and what I liked about it.

Also your screens looked really fresh and interesting, if you don't pick me I definitely look forward to playing, when you release the full story.

PM me, or reply on this thread if you are interested. =]

Seems like something fun to do. If there is any more room for testers i would be interested.

I had Obliviator check it out and he made a video commenting on everything about the story so far. Much was already being worked on, but I decided I want to get the story a little further along, and add some of the polish to the first two levels. Everyone who requested to test will get a PM, hopefully this weekend. I have a bunch of BS to do over at work the next couple of days so it will probably be the weekend. Thank you for wanting to help out, appreciate it.
