Beta Readers?
So as I continue working on updates, I thought it was about time I consider finding someone/a few someones to beta read Gamebound. I’m gonna start slow here, so what I’m looking for is:
- Go over basic timeline of the session for gaps and inconsistencies
- Particularly events mentioned ir2 the dancestors (tho there are I believe 2 that I’m okay with not lining up)
- Go over outline for coherency in flow (different from timeline in not being strictly chronological)
- For this, I’m most concerned about explanations for mentioned events (Cronus losing faith in magic, Mituna burning out his powers, Porrim becoming a rainbowdrinker, etc)
- Possibly: Read over text for impending updates
I would at least like to just go over the timeline of events, if anyone interested only feels comfortable with a single aspect of the above, that’s perfectly fine.
If this works out, I’ll probably want to go more in depth with the characterization, slogging through the script (logs, narration, and proposed panels to go with them), the panel-to-text flow, filling it out with some more flavor, and expanding on some areas that seem lacking (and then the last level is all the background that won’t be main comic itself but that’s another story entirely (pun intended)). I do have a basic overview that hits the main beats on this, but I think a lot of my anxiety would go down and get more consistent in updating if I had people to defer to ir2 the story itself.
- If anyone is interested, you can send an e-mail to: gameboundcomic@gmail.com
If I’m not going about this the right way or am being unreasonable, please let me know. This is a first for me, so I want to be sure I’m not inadvertently being an ass about it. XD
