Internal Approval Process
G.Round has limited testing slots and has to uphold a certain quality standard to keep our community
happy. Each game that comes on G.Round has to be approved by our Internal Testing team. Things
our team considers are the overall quality of the game, the build’s stability, sufficiency in content,
suitability of public test, and many more considerations for the community. Bonus points are awarded
if the game lends itself to entertaining content creation. Only games approved through this process
will be invited on the G.Round platform.
