As announced at the beginning of this month, we’re now beta testing TextTumble with a select group of helpful volunteers. We’re going to be releasing several betas, so there’s still time to get in if you want! Just follow the instructions in the announcement post.

We’ve received very valuable feedback and playing statistics from our testers. One thing we’ve observed in person with several players is that people tend to just skip the introduction slide that explains what all the things on the screen are for — so we’ll probably be integrating an event-based interactive help system at some point that — as you play — gives you little clues about what to do the first time you run into a chained word, a pictoword, or some other event (yes, dropping little hints about game features there for those of you not in the beta!).

The last mile is the hardest, as they say, and polishing up TextTumble is certainly proving that true. But things are progressing, and once again we thank all our beta testers for their help. More to come!
