What indie developers say about working with me.

“Derek from D Rock Games sent us an incredibly detailed report for our game demo. His scoring wrap-up was incredibly helpful to diagnose the strongest and weakest aspects of the game. His two biggest suggestions were updating the font for better clarity, and uploading a new batch of screenshots for better color variety on the Steam page. Both suggestions were incorporated into the game and have significantly helped. His detailed playthrough notes were probably the best part of the report. Because of how the notes were taken, I was able to see step-by-step his thought process. Overall, Derek's report was very helpful and his feedback aligned with the structure of the game.”

“Derek's playtest report was very helpful and well organized. His feedback was clear, detailed, and easy to follow, which made it simple to identify areas of the game that could be improved. He also pointed out several important details that I hadn't noticed myself. I really appreciate the time and effort that went into testing the game and putting together the report. The feedback was thoughtful, practical, and gave me a lot of useful ideas for future improvements. I would definitely recommend his playtesting services!”

“Derek provided structured and well-organized feedback by breaking down his review into clear categories. This made it easy to understand which areas needed improvement and why they were important. His ability to quickly identify weaknesses was particularly valuable, as it allowed me to address issues efficiently and make improvements in a timely manner.

What I appreciated most was the clarity and specificity of his feedback. Rather than giving general comments, he clearly explained the strengths and weaknesses of each aspect of the game, making the review process more productive and actionable.”

“Derek's playtesting report was far beyond my expectations. His critical analysis of visuals, audio, and gameplay helped identify numerous areas of improvement and bugs that needed fixing. Using in-game screenshots and detailed explanations, his feedback helped to significantly improve the quality of my game.”

“Derek's notes were just what I needed to take my game to the next level. Derek pointed out issues my game had, like art that didn't match or performance issues; as well as showed me my game's strength, and therefore what I should lean into. Derek also found many bugs I wasn't aware of. 10/10 useful report.”

“Got the Review after a very short time and it's very good to read and explained.

Scored in every important point with recommendations in sight of a regular player.

Will book his QA for my future games :-)”
