dEvo open to testers

July 21st, 2009 20:48 GMT in Beta Changes Fixes Funding Publicity

I'm starting a new project, and I thought that it'd be good if I 'finished' Evolution 5 before moving on. Last time anyone donated was over a month ago, and the ads aren't really paying enough to keep Evo on the internet. I haven't put much effort into Evo for years. So, I've decided that instead of switching it off, I'll finally put some effort into ironing out the issues, change the advertising inside Evo to hopefully get more money in that way instead of relying on donations, and advertise the game on other websites to get a lot more players here. That way, it'll be able to stay on the internet, there'll be more players to play against, and I might actually get something for all my effort over the years for the first time ever. Everyone's happy.

dEvo is the development version of Evolution 5, located at http://ev5-dev.neondragon.net/. It is now open to anyone who wants to help with testing -- login with your usual username and password. If you know of bugs, or you have suggestions for things that can be improved, then now is definitely the time to go into dEvo and make your thoughts known.

Nice to hear Neon, and I hope you get the support you deserve.  Be nice to see all problems ironed out (is that ever possible though).  Anyway best of luck.  I wont help with testing, as my stats knowledge is poor, im more of a seat of pants gal.....  Shout if you need any help though.

That's what he said: "I'm starting a new project,"

Is it a new online game?

Oropher wrote at August 6th 2009, 21:19:

It is unlikely...Evo is a great game but so difficult to make it economically sustainable.

I'll be donating later in the year once i get some free cash, i cant help out with testing though as my stats knowledge is poor aswell.

Everything on dEvo is great. There are some problems though such as hyper links that take you to error messages.

Could do with a reset
