    Thank you for all your ideas and suggestions.  A lot for me to think about.    I have added links on both the landing page and beta site so it will be easier to contact me in the future.  If you would like specific answers to some of your questions please send me your email (crystal@donttouchgame.com).  Thank you!

    1) Visit http://unbouncepages.com/donttouchgame. What is your initial impression of what you see? Are you immediately drawn to read about the game? The website? Becoming a Beta Test Couple? Why or why not?

    My initial impression of the website is that it is catchy.  It draws the viewers eye and made me want to keep reading more about the game.  The website is easily to navigate and it is easy to find answers to any questions.  I think based on the description of the game, I would consider becoming a Beta Tester for the game. To me, the description of the game was intriguing and it sounds like a fun game to play with your spouse/partner.  

    2) Did you visit the site at donttouchgame.com? Did you feel comfortable with what you saw?

    I did visit donttouchgame.com and I thought the site was done tastefully.  There was nothing that made me feel uneasy or uncomfortable about it.  It describes the game tastefully without giving too much away, and the website is not offensive in any way.  

    3) Are you encouraged to sign up as a Beta Test Couple? If not, why?
    I did feel encouraged to become a Beta Test Couple because the game sounds intriguing to me. I do think it is a good, and fun, way for a couple to add a bit of fun or variety to their lives.  The only thing that was not clear really was how to sign up to become a Beta Tester or for the game launch notification. 

    4) Are you encouraged to be notified when the official game/site is launched? If not, why?
    I would be interested to know when the lame is launched.  My only question regarding this is will the game be different when it launches than what the Beta Testers are receiving, and if not, will it be necessary for the testers to be re-notified of the game launch? 

    5) Do you have any suggestions on where Beta Test Couples could be found to help with my project?
    I would suggest a short Youtube video about the game which could help with not only the Beta Testers but also when the game does launch.  That is one good way to reach a large audience.  Depending on what you want to do with advertising for the game, maybe some ads on websites that appeal to adults, or small ads in magazines.  

    Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.
    The only thing I am a little confused about is the online membership fee.  Will there be different features if the game is downloaded as opposed to having the game mailed?  Or, is it for access to the site for discussions and such?  All in all, I think this is a good product with the potential to be very successful.

      Thank you for your great feedback!  You mentioned you did not see ‘how’ to sign up to be a tester or be notified when the game is launched.  Possibly you visited the site ‘before’ I added these features.  Or possibly they are not clear?  I would be very interested in knowing.

      As far as the beta version vs the final version, the test couples will receive every version of the game that is released as long as they are active testers.  I expect there will be 1-2 revisions in the beta phase and then moving forward, since the game is ever changing and evolves constantly there will probably be ‘updated’ versions as-needed (hard to know at this point the frequency).  Either way, testers will always get the current versions.  I will make this clear in the FAQs and on the Beta Tester Information Page. 

      Yes, you are the 3rd or 4th person to suggest the Youtube video.  I am working 24/7 trying to learn about many of the social media opportunities.  Clueless at this point about Youtube or Twitter but I will get there.  I am trying to reserve Youtube for the actual launch IF I get enough testers on board without it. 

      Lastly, membership fee.  You buy the game and get a 3 month free membership to the website.  I hope at the end of the 3 months, members recognize the value of continuing it not only to keep up-to-date with the game but because of the community itself and all the good stuff on it.  If that’s the case, you would be able to renew your membership for a reasonable annual fee.  The fee covers both partners.  I would expect to have a group of core test couples that will continue to work with me on suggested game revisions, rules, and website content (poll, contests, topics, etc.).  Testers would continue free of charge for all game revisions and website access.

    My initial thought of the homepage was this was not going to be an easy site to navigate.  I noticed that there is “home” tab, “About us” tab.  If this is the homepage, I would not join or look any further into it.  The idea of the site sounds good and does get my attention, but all I know about the site is what is stated on the page.  Before I join anything, I would like to know more and this is where the “About us” tab would come in handy.  I tried to click on “Entice your partner”, “Join the on-line community”, etc. since they looked like links, and I soon realized they weren’t.  When people are joining, they want to have a sneak peek into what they are joining in order to have an idea of what it’s about. (Since I have noticed that this isn’t the homepage, I would suggest that you have a link to your homepage on this page.)
     
    Did you visit the site at donttouchgame.com? Did you feel comfortable with what you saw?
     
    After seeing this site, I can tell that this is the “Homepage” which makes me question what the first page I saw was even for.  I think the layout of this page is good.  This is one of the best homepages I have ever seen.  I think it’s great that you have testimonies, and even a survey question.  The color use is very good.  The only problem that I can see on the page is there is not a “About us” tab which is very important.  “About us” can explain a little more about your services and a little bit of a background. 
     
    I took a glance at your other pages.  The signing up looked very easy.  I was wondering when you go through the sign up process, when exactly do you make a password?  From what I can see a password wasn’t asked.  Other than that, all your pages looked very good.

    Are you encouraged to sign up as a Beta Test Couple? If not, why?
     
    Yes I am.  It sounds like a very fun program or service.
     

    Are you encouraged to be notified when the official game/site is launched? If not, why?
     
    Yes, but the problem with that is most people wouldn’t want to wait.  When you first see a service and you want to join it, you want to join it now.  Most people will either not want to join something if they have to wait, or they end up forgetting about it.

    Do you have any suggestions on where Beta Test Couples could be found to help with my project? Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.
     
    The best thing for getting couples is through “Social” sites such as facebook, myspace, etc.  I noticed on your site you didn’t have any link to any social sites.  Socail sites are a BIG thing these days and they are the best way to advertise.    Another good way to advertise is team up with other sites.  Talk to these other sites about posting your link to your page on their site and you do the same for them.

      Thank you for your comments.  Since I am in the beta stage, the 1st is my landing page that I am using to solicit test couples.  I have added clearer links to the actual site.  Best I can offer during the beta state is a ‘Notify Me’ option for when the game is officially launched.  At least some people provide their email to be notified even if they forget all about it until that happens.  Great suggestions ‘About Us’ and ‘Links’.  Thanks again.

    1) Visit http://unbouncepages.com/donttouchgame. What is your initial impression of what you see? Are you immediately drawn to read about the game? The website? Becoming a Beta Test Couple? Why or why not?

    My very first thought was that I wanted to see a bit more spice to the page but in reality I like that the page isn’t overly sexual. Even though my intrigued I think that this page needs to do more explaining about the game itself, it’s a little vague. I also liked the simplity of page because it was more on an information page and not a showing of the main site itself.

    2) Did you visit the site at donttouchgame.com? Did you feel comfortable with what you saw?

    It describes the game tastefully without giving too much away, and the website is not offensive in any way.

    3) Are you encouraged to sign up as a Beta Test Couple? If not, why?

    I did feel encouraged to become a Beta Test Couple because the game sounds intriguing to me.

    4) Are you encouraged to be notified when the official game/site is launched? If not, why?

    Most people will either not want to join something if they have to wait or they end up forgetting about it.

    5) Do you have any suggestions on where Beta Test Couples could be found to help with my project? Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.

    All of the site interaction is great, and it’s everywhere you look; it’s a great tool for newcomers to be able to see others talking about a taboo subject openly, and this could lead to more curiosity about the product and a willingness to contribute to the site and product that might not have been there before. This is often a critical aspect of marketing, and though you seem to be willing to work to “catch up” on it, don’t neglect the possibility of hiring an expert to work on these matters for you. Consider doing away with your splash page; I’m not sure that it really did anything for the product, and it made me feel like it was a different kind of product altogether.

    1) Visit http://unbouncepages.com/donttouchgame. What is your initial impression of what you see? Are you immediately drawn to read about the game? The website? Becoming a Beta Test Couple? Why or why not?
    I have clear that it is some kind of game as I can see the big letters and also that it is a game that I can’t play on my own but that I need someone to play with me. Although I get the feeling that touching is not involved (unless the  url lies) the pictures and graphics indicate that there is some kind of sexual game.
    This makes me think that it may be either a game that I can play with my partner or that it is a game that I can play using webcams. I haven’t read the text just yet, only looked at the site.
    Those impressions turn me off for various reasons.
    1) because I’m fed up with being sold sensuality and sex all the time (directly and indrectly)
    2) because it is a bit tiring to see that everybody uses what’s easiest to succeed… sex.
    3) Because you’ve got to be in the mood to play this kind of game (that is, if my first impression was right which I don’t know just yet) and I’m not
    4) Because if you play this, you should play this with your partner. This kind of games can lead to difficult situations if played outside the safety of your own couple.
    Now I’ve visited the site and I confirmed that my suspicious were right… although I’m glad to see that it doesn’t seem to involve webcams and all that.
    Still, I guess that people that are into this kind of thing will like it.

    2) Did you visit the site at donttouchgame.com? Did you feel comfortable with what you saw?
    I did feel comfortable with the graphics. I don’t like them but it is for aesthetic reasons. That’s not my type of drawing. I confess that I didn’t like the design in general either. Too crowded and too much stuff going on there. It would need more negative space and more leading for the text.
    The black\white design with touches of red is not my style either. I like the colors but no the implementation.
    I guess I would have expected something much more minimalist… and since it is a game that tries to suggest and spice up your sex life, I would have expected a design more suggestive, more hide-and-seek, showing the right pieces of information at the right times and in the right places, not all in just one page.
    I don’t know if I’m explaining myself properly but the idea is “leave them wanting more”. I know that it is a hard compromise with getting the idea clear and being honest from the very star. Still, I think that the web could be a bit of a game itself.

    3) Are you encouraged to sign up as a Beta Test Couple? If not, why?
    No, I’m afraid. Again, this is not my thing or my style. And this kind of games just rise my skepticism. Can’t help it.
    I just don’t believe that it can do anything for me or for my relationship. At least, not for me. I’m sure that it can be great for someone that is predisposed to it.
    It is a niche site.
    And, of course, since the aesthetic is not my style, I’m not visually tempted to give it a try
    4) Are you encouraged to be notified when the official game/site is launched? If not, why?
    No. Read nbr. 3 to know the reasons (in short) This is a case of personal preference.

    5) Do you have any suggestions on where Beta Test Couples could be found to help with my project? Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.
    It depends on the type of public you’re addressing this site to. This can be tricky. People get the wrong ideas too easily and think that it is something a bit more… explicit or confuse it with a way to meet new people\couples more than simply sexing up their sex life with the current partner.
    I would simply buy ppc ads to Google or try to contact lingerie and erotic shops or places like meetic.com, or advertise in web sites from reputable sex doctors.
    Even if you don’t care about the morality of the users of the game, I would certainly avoid advertising in porn sites. It would reinforce the idea that the game is more than erotic.
    By the way, it takes ages to load and my broadband is really broad! (100mb)
    Improving the CSS and the HTML code is a must. 30 imported CSS files and around 30 Javascript? that’s over killing!

      Thank you for the additional comments.  Appreciate it.  Just a note, if you signed up recently, I didn’t get anything…. and I’d hate to see a glitch get you lost.  If it was over a week ago or if you heard back from me, great!  and…Thanks again!

    5) Do you have any suggestions on where Beta Test Couples could be found to help with my project? Please share any additional feedback/comments you may have.
    How about adding some erotic music lol and CHaractors acting out some of the games. As well as adding a bit more color to the website. Too much grey and very little red and hardly any color.
