If you are looking to help out and shape upcoming games still in development, G.Round is a new platform to do just that. It’s currently in the pre-alpha stage and is now inviting would-be playtesters to register.
New titles in development will be added in G.Round every week. Each game available will be in the platform for four weeks, so eager testers interested in a specific game can test it within that timeframe and provide critical feedback that could affect the development of the game. The platform caters to different studios all across the globe.

“This is an opportunity for players to check out awesome games and take action to help them see the light of day,” said Rick Nahm, Co-founder and COO at G.Round. “We hope G.Round will be a place for gamers to enjoy curated fantastic games, provide productive feedback and be part of a journey in helping more talented teams and games succeed.”
It’s an interesting platform for those eager to help out the development process of a game and it seems they are working on an On-Air feature where content creators can stream them testing the game, bringing along their community to provide feedback. Most of the games available for testing are either for the PC or mobile platforms.
Those interested can sign up via the G.Round website and is available to all testers globally.
