Hiya!
\nWe\'ve been focusing intensely on battles. So much so that we\'re ready for you to playtest (if you want!) what we\'re calling THE GUANTLET. This is primarily a testing environment for us, but for you its a roguelike-ish, arcade-y, self-contained game that focuses on battles.\n\nTHE GAUNTLET will run August 22-September 5. To participate you\'ll just need to use this form to sign up , and then we\'ll email you a game link on the 22nd. \n\nYou can play through THE GAUNTLET as many times as youd like between August 22 - September 5. All participants will receive a credit in the game, a digital playtester badge (THE GAUNTLET edition), and have the chance to win PRIZES! Prizes include:
$50 Steam gift card to the overall highest score*

(*Steam gift cards will be purchased in USD and automatically convert to your local currency upon redemption if you live in another country).\n\nSo what will actually happen in THE GAUNTLET? Youll progress through randomized rooms, fighting three battles in each one, and then visit a hub where you canget an upgrade and some other goodies. You\'ll progress like this through different rooms until you reach the very end (and hopefully want to run it again and again). Here\'s a quick look at one of these hubs (which alsogives you a sneak peak at how we\'re using truffles as currency in the game!):
