Coffee with Butterscotch: A Gamedev Comedy Podcast

[Ep442] Alpha Antics

In this episode, we discuss game testing, white lies, and samurais. Alpha testing is like hosting a masquerade ball for bugs— you never know who will show up in what disguise. Decoding feedback is a juggling act between psychology, sleuthing, and the occasional facepalm, but every glitch unraveled is one step closer to enlightenment.
