Steve ran a study for one of our games to understand the impact that usability and accessibility issues were having on our players. Steve’s work was excellent.

He made a huge positive impression with our team and helped shape our future roadmap for game improvements.

Steve’s support throughout the whole project was amazing and we’re looking forward to possible future collaborations

We approached Steve in the middle of our dev cycle to validate our controls and difficulty on a platform that we were unfamiliar with.

Working with Steve was incredibly easy and very useful, watching the testing and reading the breakdown gave us great insight into how players were reacting and what they were learning. This led us to make great strives, improving overall quality and player comprehension.

I have found Playtesting to become a vital tool in making good development decisions at different times in the project from concept to finishing. It is an additional data point that helps prove out and support ideas and assumptions we have created. It gives me additional information and insight I didn’t have before which is useful both for internal and external discussions around the game.

I worked with Steve on a title where we had many thorny issues that only playtesting could aid us to make headway on.

He has a real clarity of understanding of how to translate your questions and needs into practical unbiased tests and programs to get the understanding you seek.

When Wish Studios created the PlayLink concept for PlayStation, we developed a new gameplay paradigm in which casual players would use mobile phone apps as controllers for console games. Such a radical shift, aimed at a non-technical audience, naturally required in-depth playtesting to ensure we got it right.

Steve’s test team provided the answer, delivering well-structured, informative, actionable feedback for our development team to work with.

Steve clearly understood our goals from the outset, and to gather the most thorough feedback, he recommended a mix of lab and remote playtesters with a targeted recruitment profile. This thorough approach resulted in clear data that validated our assumptions with genuine insights.

Steve skillfully transformed our hypotheses into concrete, actionable findings, which have had a direct impact on both our strategy and the user experience we’re creating. Thank you Steve!

We asked Steve Bromley to help playtest and analyze the FTUE of our game to improve it, and the experience was exceptional. Steve’s attention to detail and keen observation skills during the playtest gave us valuable insights into the user experience and what was lacking in the game.

What sets Steve apart is not only his expertise but also his clear and insightful communication.

The analysis report we received was comprehensive, highlighting strengths and suggesting actionable improvements. We are very happy and grateful to have worked with him.

Steve is an expert in his field, and his exceptional manner is very suited to working with a range of clients. I don’t hesitate to recommend him.

We contacted Steve after conducting some playtests, as we wanted a more objective viewpoint on our data that didn’t come with the biases we had after working on the game for so long.

After a quick chat, we sent over all our footage and data to Steve, and he quickly generated a full report which exceeded our expectations in terms of detail and execution time.

Steve was able to provide an external, unbiased viewpoint which was invaluable to us!

We worked with Steve on a playtest for our early beta, and he was incredibly helpful and adaptable to our needs.

The process was timely and thorough, providing us with valuable insights. These insights are now shaping Spellscaper according to our players’ needs and desires.

We highly recommend Steve’s expertise in user research to anyone looking to improve their product.

When we approached our game’s positioning, we had several gameplay features we could focus on, but we needed to figure out how significant each was to the player. We sat down and discussed the problem with Steve, who devised a plan. The result was a series of in-depth player interviews that delivered fast, actionable insights to help us develop a strategy, putting the most compelling game elements at the centre of our campaign.

Steve helped us get much better insights into our sales funnel, understanding where potential buyers leave, where we can improve our marketing message and what untapped potential there might be. 10/10 would do again!
