| This is the board to do it. First, I do a closed Beta of the sorts pretty much, where I have a few real life people test it out as well as a handful of online friends (at most). Then I open it up and make a thread on this forum, asking people if they'd like to test the level out for me. Of course, I keep it password-protected. Even then, I keep it rather limited. I don't like having the general audience Beta test for me. I'm too much of a perfectionist and I want to showcase my full, bug-free work. | 2009-01-13 22:48:00 Author: aer0blue  Posts: 1603 |
| Another option is to publish a level but pui a "beta" or words to that effect in the level title. Post this level on the Showcase section, have it as F4F, and see if people will play it. I recommend adding some pics to try and encourage people as well. If not many people are playing it, then play other people's levels that are F4F and ask specifically for feedback on your own level. Then, when it seems everything is working well and the majority of people are happy with the results, republish the level but without the "beta" title. It's up to you whether you delete the original version or lock it or leave it as it is. You can then use the "fully working version" as the one to point people to, and do the republish shuffle to try and encourage plays on it. This is one way to try and get as high a rating as you can. Not necessarily the best or ideal way, but a method none the less. Hope it helps.  | 2009-01-13 22:59:00 Author: Elbee23  Posts: 1280 |

| As this is a question, I went ahead and moved it to Feedback. If you want to find others to beta-test a level, just make a new thread in Find Other Happy Gadders (http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=43) with your request. | 2009-01-14 04:17:00 Author: ConfusedCartman  Posts: 3729 |

| I have a level designed for allowing people early access to your locked levels..It's called Lock and Key! and it's copyable. Search my name and then look in Antarctica. The level has a tutorial built into it. P.M if you have any questions. | 2009-01-14 23:50:00 Author: Jaeyden  Posts: 564 |
