I noticed there's no sandpit category in Quest 5. Am I just too dumb to see it? Why isn't it there? I like sandpits...

That was intentional... if there are any "good" games in the Sandpit, they should probably be recategorised as something else.

But I'm willing to reconsider - there are quite a lot of Sandpit games though so they may not be easy to browse within Quest's game browser.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to delete sandpit-games automatically after a month

That would be a bit harsh I think. One thing I'll probably do though is add the ability to make games private, i.e. they won't appear in the listings on the front page or categories, but you could still test that your game works online, and send links to it to your friends.

Okay, I understand. There are a lot of awful ones indeed. I just like trying them and coming up with suggestions to improve them. I'll just do that via the website. There are good sandpit games though, and it would be a shame not to put those in the system.

Btw: I like your idea of private games a lot! Friends of mine don't want to download Quest, but I don't really want to put a game full of bugs out there.
