Background: The vertical slice has just passed acceptance, and the studio is still checking whether players can get into its card game smoothly. Friday’s playtest doubles as a celebration, while the team watches to see how many people the build can handle together.
Today: BTC stands at 46,000, and the market is still moving, but the studio does not change its plans. The celebration and playtest are held together, with more than 400 people online; testing, conversation, and festivities share the same event, giving developers a direct view of players’ reactions.
Impact and next: The playtest grows from an internal acceptance exercise into a gathering the community can join. The turnout shows the team that people are willing to come, while creating feedback to sort through. The next task is to turn comments into specific changes; no public test date has been announced yet.
