How can we test it?
One idea to test out our ‘beat the box. not your boss’ game is to install it in a break room in an office building. That way people will see it and feel safer to use it instead of putting it outside; by putting it inside a break room it’s in their environment so they may feel more enticed to play it and also we will be surrounded by our target demographic. Also if its inside we will be able to easily hook all the components easily without having to use an external cable if it was outside.
We can ask a member of our families or friends to help find a more exact building/location/industry.
Another idea for where we can install the game to test it can be in a park around lunch hours. We can have someone/people stand outside the game entrance to both explain the game to them and ask them to test it out.
The reason I think a park will be a nice place to test our game in is that we will be in a calm area where many of our target audience will be eating.
There are only two problems we will have to solve if we were to put our game outside; one is that we need to have the power to make the game work and cables will be a health hazard if not properly prepared and the other is that our target demographic may be less likely to play if it in their lunch hour as that may be the only time they have to eat and rest from their job so we may have to either extend our duration of time while we’re their or we will have to come after work hours.
