📝 Summary
As QA tester, my role was to ensure that the game’s complex systems (farming, crafting and NPC interactions) functioned smoothly without breaking immersion.
With so many interconnected features, the biggest challenge was regression testing across dynamic systems and unexpected behaviors, especially in co-op mode.
Bug reports often focused on UI glitches and soft locks all of which I tracked closely using ClickUp.
