Hi! I am looking for Android testers for FishPond, an evolving ecosystem game.

Google Play requires 12 people to join the closed test and remain opted in for at least 14 days. The build is free. I would especially value people who can actually open the game, try the ecosystem, and send honest bug or usability feedback. No rating or public review is requested.

Because this closed track uses an email allowlist, please comment or DM me the Gmail or Google account you use in Google Play. I will add it to the authorized list and send the opt-in link:
