I have a puzzle game for iOS and Android that is ready for beta testing...

Other than friends and family, what is a good source for testers?

Quick search will show: https://developer.apple.com/app-store/testflight/
or
http://erlibird.com/beta-testing?gclid= ... oCO9Hw_wcB

or for android you could build a google group then invite to test, small number alpha, larger number beta: https://support.google.com/googleplay/a ... 1213?hl=en

But they say if you're not embarrassed by your first release then you released too late.

It's a shame there isn't a Livecode beta tester google group for testing Android apps - [not checking your code - which would be even more embarrassing :oops: ].

for testing anything.

What about setting up a "testing circle" with a rigidly defined system of "Brownie points"
so those who test other people's software can rack up points towards having their own software testing?
