Comic Transcript
PHIL: So, Alex, how are you feeling?
ALEX: I’ve shaved, taken a shower… I feel much better.
PHIL: Good, because we’re going to need you to put in some overtime this week. UberQuest went gold Friday, and should be hitting the stores any day now.
ALEX: What, already? We barely tested it.
PHI: Alex, beta testing is not, as some might suppose, the part of game development devoted to fixing bugs. Oh, sure, we fix the occasional show-shoppers, but that’s really not what a beta program is FOR.
ALEX: Well, what is it for, then?
PHIL: It’s for determining whether or not the game is addictive enough to compel someone to play DESPITE the presence of bugs.
(Silence.)
ALEX: If you’ll excuse me, I’m late for an appointment with a bell and some powdered meat.
