Testing Phase Initiated Immediately!
A Billion Suns, the upcoming tabletop wargame of interstellar fleet combat from Osprey Games, is offering an open beta, and players are invited to take part in shaping the game's quality. The open beta process for A Billion Suns resembles the one used for Gaslands in 2016-17, aiming to achieve a similar level of improvement in outer space.
To participate, follow Osprey Games' official channels, such as their website and social media accounts, for announcements or sign-up forms for the beta. Joining any community or mailing lists they offer will keep you updated on the latest developments. Since A Billion Suns is a recent or upcoming release, the open beta phase might currently be limited or by application only. Checking Osprey Games’ official website or contacting them directly will give the most accurate and current information.
The open beta offers early access to game materials, including rules, miniatures, and scenarios, and encourages playtesting while giving feedback to the developers. The objective is to gather feedback on what is not fun, what doesn't read right, or which rules are confusing or unintuitive.
Mike, the game's designer, welcomes questions from readers, particularly those related to the beta manuscript of A Billion Suns. His design blog serves as a platform for readers to engage with him about the development of the game and offers insights into its ideas and objectives. The beta rules can be found on the Osprey Games website for download.
Mike encourages readers to share their thoughts and questions about the beta process and the game of A Billion Suns. He also invites readers to share their ideas for topics they'd like him to cover, especially those who have read the beta manuscript. He expresses gratitude for participants in the open beta and looks forward to receiving feedback about the game.
Interested individuals can sign up to download the beta rules and receive email updates. The author of the article, who also ran an open beta process for Gaslands, notes that this is an excellent opportunity for players to contribute to the development of a new tabletop wargame.
