Call for beta testers

At last, the Terra-Kojima Merlin-class cutter airship is ready for beta testing. That means we need a crew of testers to put it through its paces.

Steampunk airship

We need testers who are:

  • Familiar with SL vehicles, preferably aircraft.
  • Can methodically test a vehicle in a variety of scenarios (even unlikely ones that push the limits).

We can’t take everyone, but those who do qualify will get a free copy of the final version when it’s available.

Please IM me (Cubey Terra) in-world if you’re interested!
