Cactus Game Design Message Boards

Hi everyone,
I posted about a year ago about my online version of Redemption.  Unfortunately the design was based on SQL which was too slow so I had to redesign it. That took a very long time and often times it felt like I was making no progress.  Well, thanks to God I finally got about 90% of the original game converted and it is operational and basically playable (not all things work perfectly yet obviously).  I am looking for 1 or 2 testers to help out.  The game will only be running, at this point, while I am here running it.  So the hours are not yet certain.  If you are interested in helping out, let me know. 

Hi Ironisaac,
The best way to help is for you to play the game and make notes of what cards do not function properly and what things are allowed that should not be, or vice versa.  Also make suggestions on what design changes would make the play go smoother.  (Keep in mind that I can't do everything at once, and that not everything is doable or feasible for me to do.  There are a lot of things I want to do, but time constraints are a major bummer.  Also suggest what things might be show-stoppers from your point of view (IE: should not open the game for play until they are fixed) and what items you think are best to let slide.

I think you not being up on tech knowledge would be a benefit since you would see things from a new (different) perspective.

You will be able to play the game against the computer, or you could run two accounts and play against yourself, (or me  at times.)

Not all enhancements are programmed yet, and some might be broken since the conversion from SQL so don't expect everything to be smooth!

I haven't programmed much in C#, but I'd definitely be interested to see what you have and help out if I can. I've done some front end web design so I could potentially help out with that as well.
