      In your experience, what's the best way to test your game? My next game I'll be looking to test with a larger audience and I'm looking for the recommended way to go about it.

      Pay them. That is the easiest way.

      What do you mean by "large audience"?

      100? 1,000? 10,000?

      Let's go with 100-500. I'm assuming for those numbers I'll likely be looking to pay a service.

      The best way is to pay them. You could try running a cash contest try to get a few 100 people to play it.

      Have you considered a softlaunch in a territory like Australia?

      You should be able to generate those kinds of numbers organically.

      What do you want them to do? I have used SurveyMonkey to get people's opinions on screenshots, but that's not testing the actual game.
