In preparation for the release of our MVP on June 30th, we wanted to give you an idea of what to expect, how you can participate — and be rewarded for! — the bug reporting process.

The MVP is a chance for players to test out a small portion of what Tiny Colony has to offer and, if you choose, take on the role of a Bug Bounty Hunter.

Tiny Colony will be relying on the User Driven Development concept we outlined previously, and emphasizing play-testing throughout our MVP, alpha and beta rollouts.

“It helps us write the rules of the game and teaches us how to better structure our tutorials for clarity. It will allow us to identify early on what the best strategies are for approaching the game and whether or not these strategies fit our intended vision. Finally, and most importantly, play-testing tells us whether or not our game is fun”- Game Producer, Ernest Cheung

During the MVP stage of development, bugs can be very common. Inviting play-testers to identify bugs and test the core functionality of the game will greatly improve the final product. This is when we want you — our incredible community — to search for and report issues you might come across.

Rewards

Users who report bugs will earn the Discord role of Bug Bounty Hunter! This is exclusive to play-testers.

This Discord role will be your ticket into a draw to win a Legendary Character NFT! Raffle date is TBA.

“With so much more to build in the Tinyverse, the team is elated to share the MVP of our first game! We love that we are able to build this as a community of gamers”- CEO, Arshia Navabi

How do I report bugs?

If you have received an MVP access code, you will also have a “play-tester” role in our Discord.

Navigate to the Game Info section and go to the bug-reporting channel. This will only be available for those with with the “play-tester” role.

You will find a Google Form. Follow the instructions to the best of your ability, report any bugs, enter your Discord ID, and you’ll receive the “Bug Bounty Hunter” role within 48 hours. Congrats! You’re entered into the raffle!
