Role

Alpha Play Tester

A puzzle horror game developed by MangledMAW Studio, in which the player interacts with a series of VHS tapes to solve the mystery behind a cursed cartoon show. As an official play tester, I assisted the lead development team on quality assurance of the game's puzzles and user experience.

I tested various sections of the early game, including a storyboard puzzle centered around an unfinished tape and a fridge puzzle in which various food items needed to be sorted by food groups based on a poster on the kitchen wall.
During my testing, I suggested that a visual indicator could be added to the wall hinting to the player that the pins of the storyboard could be attached together, as well as a button indicator since it was not clear what to press. This hint ended up making it into the final release of the game.
When testing the kitchen puzzle, I found a bug that could have soft-locked the game and informed the development team so they could fix it before the public release.
