Beta Game Testers Needed: Paper

There are a lot of reasons why someone might want to check out a guide like T Dub Sanders'. One might be interested in the underside of the game testing field. Others might just want to know what they can gain from a guide that is written to help people understand their role in the gaming industry. Others still are just pining for that ultimate career working alongside game developers and designers.

Whatever the reason, T Dub Sanders has put together one of the biggest and best game testing guides on the market – one that shows the underpinnings of the career in their raw, real format. There are no false promises of automatic testing or sitting at home and playing the newest games for hundreds of dollars a day.

That stuff is all pretty much a pipe dream and most people know it – yet many guide writers try to tell everyone that they can become the biggest and best new game testers in a field that doesn't really exist every day and too many fall for it. On the other hand, what T Dub has put together is a much more realistic, much more comprehensive look at what game testing is really about – the hard work and dedication that goes into becoming someone in charge of all that code each day.

By showing what it really takes to be a game tester, T Dub opens up an actual, realistic path to getting into the industry. He showcases skills needed to get started as a tester, the classes or college majors that people better be willing to invest in if they want to be a professional in this field and much more to help them figure out not only if the career path is right for them but if they are going to be cut out for it. That means a great deal for someone who may or may not know exactly what a game tester does and how it operates.

For anyone that is thinking about taking the path toward becoming a game tester, one of the first things that needs to be done is to learn more about what the career entails. Those people should pick up T Dub's newest guide and get a real insider's look at the job and how it really works. If you're serious about doing what T Dub shows you, you'll be on the fast track toward game testing in no time flat.

Pin ItArticle EditDiscussYou don't have to have a tent, a box, or a light table to take close up and macro shots. You can get by with nothing more than two pieces of paper and some tape.

Edit Steps1Take the first sheet of paper and make it more narrow by a few inches. Precision isn't necessary, it just needs to be more narrow.

2Tape the front of the piece of the paper wherever you will be taking the picture at. You will be adhering it to the table or box.

3Tape the back of the paper and tape it to something that has some height to it. A small cup or glass.

4Bend the second sheet in half.

5Fold each half towards the middle.

This will be to create a 'tent' over the first sheet of paper. This will diffuse the light over your subject.6Set up your light above your paper studio about a foot. Start experimenting with it to see where you want to position your lights for your shot.

Edit Things You'll Need2 sheets of paper, about the weight of copy paper. You could use tissue or wax paper for different diffusion.Scotch tapeat least one source of light, off camera (off camera flash or desk lights)

Pin ItArticle EditDiscussMaking a paper cube is easy to do, and fun for all ages. Here's how to do it.

Edit Steps1Take a piece of paper. The bigger your paper, the larger the final cube will be

2In the center of your paper, draw a long rectangle and divide it up into four 2 inch squares.

3Draw another square to the right of the second square from the top.

4Draw another square to the left of the second square from the top.

Now it should look like a cross with six equal sized squares and the the longest part should be closest to you.If you have a printer, you can print out the image below to use as your pattern. Note the “ears,” or tabs, on the sides and top of the cubes—these are useful if you wish to glue your box together.

Cube Pattern5With scissors or a hobby knife, cut along the outside edges of the shape. If you printed the pattern and are gluing the box together, be careful not to cut off the tabs!

6Fold the paper. Follow along the inside lines, and fold the paper inward.

If you’re gluing, make sure you fold the tabs inward as well.7Align the folds. The square on the very bottom should be folded so it is parallel or directly across from the square that was in the middle.

8Finish up your box. Tape all of the sides together, and you’re done!.

If you are gluing, apply a couple drops of hobby glue or paste to the tabs, and then press the outside of the box against the glued tabs.9Finished.
