Playtesting is an unavoidable necessity when you're making a video game.
In this video, I'm gonna walk you through the necessary steps you have to follow, when you want to let other people test your game in a one-on-one or one-on-few situation.

Game Design Focus is a show that revolves around the art of making video games.
