Rank every playtest problem, fix the top 5 and prove the fixes worked.

The testers found the rage spot, the boring bit and a hole in the wall. Patch 1.1 fixes it all before launch.

What you’ll build

Score every playtest problem by how bad it is and how many testers hit it, then fix the top five, starting with the rage spot. Retest it, write Patch 1.1 notes in a book and put a version sign on your title screen.

Finish line: Your top five problems are fixed, the retest proves it and Patch 1.1 notes sit on a lectern.

Bonus challenge: Add one brand-new mini secret as a thank-you to the testers, and hint at it in the patch notes without saying where it is.

You’ll need

  • Your score sheet from Mission 798
  • Book and Quill
  • A lectern
  • A tester for a retest

You choose

  • My patch's codename
  • The riskiest fix
  • My target: fewer than ___ falls at the rage spot

Stuck?

  • Small changes first: one block shorter or one more light often fixes a rage spot.
  • Draft the patch notes on paper. A signed book can't be edited.
  • Count falls before and after on the same spot to prove the fix worked.
