I’ve been working on a simple 3D maze game for Android. The main idea is a daily maze: everyone plays the same maze each day and competes on a global leaderboard.
It’s designed to be quick and casual. Wordle-style sessions you can finish in a few minutes.
Features:
Daily Maze: same maze for everyone, resets daily, global leaderboard
Random Mode: no competition, solution button available
Duels: real-time 1v1 races on a randomly generated maze
I’d really appreciate feedback, especially on what features or modes would be interesting to add.
The app isn’t public yet because Google requires a testing phase, but testing is open. You just need to join a Google Group and then use the Play Store link below.
Google group: (It may show "you don't have access to this content" but if you login you can request access. It's unfortunately a necessary step for the App links below to work.)
(The App links above will only be available after joining the group. I'm very sorry, those are google requirements.)
Thanks!

Are you referring to the Google Group link?
It may show "You don't have permission to access this content", but if you are logged in to Google you should see a "Join/Access Group" link no?

Yes, but I'm not "logged into Google".
The two others are not working either.
Senior game dev here, Don't expect people to jump through hoops to check your stuff out, post screenshots, post a direct link to google play.
Make it as simple as possible to check out your game.
Good luck!
Edit: the general link in the post doesn't work either, welcome to the dreaded "demo effect" 😅

Don't even get me started on these requirements by google for personal developer accounts. This is a mandatory testing phase before they give me access to production. The google group is necessary for the app links to be unblocked for that particular google account.
I 100% understand the pain this is, but not sure I can do anything more to simplify the process.
My conclusion as of late is that I should just create a business google account to skip this haha.

You could just make it open source and post releases to gitlab/github or whatever

Make a max 1MB (maybe 2 or more, but do you feel lycky 😁?) image and post it right here.

I have images less than 1Mb, both jpg and png. The upload always fails either on the post or here in the comments. I'll try some different formats.

I made a free 3D Maze Game with a shared daily maze and global leaderboards!
