How PlaytestLoop works
A credit-based playtesting loop for indie games. No subscriptions. No money. Just feedback.
Browse and play
No account needed to browse. Go to the games page, pick something interesting, and hit "Play". The game opens in a new tab — play at your own pace. We track session length to give developers useful data.
Leave feedback
Sign in and leave feedback after playing. The form asks three required questions: a star rating, "Was it fun?", and "Would you replay?". Expand the optional section to add a written comment (30+ chars earns a bonus credit) and flag bugs.
Submit your game
Costs 10 credits. New accounts start with 10, so you can submit right away. Fill in title, short desc, full description, URL, platform, and tags. Check the AI-coded box if AI tools wrote a significant portion of your code.
Boost your listing
Spend 5 credits to boost your game for 7 days. Boosted games show a ⚡ badge and get a 30% multiplier on the trending score, making them more visible on the homepage.
Abuse protection
We auto-flag suspicious feedback (submitted too fast, repeat patterns, brand-new accounts). Flagged reviews are hidden from public averages. Admins review and can revoke credits from bad actors.
