Hello there, Era!
So, this question is probably more relevant for small indie studios or lone programmers, who are active in all areas of the development and not just, for example, music or art.
I myself have been working with various RPG Maker engines since 2000. Since then I have created various games and while I no longer have my oldest games, the ones I have am still playing even today on a fairly regular basis (at least if those are actual games and not just 5-10 minute concept design thingies). I do know of other people from the german RPG Maker scene that only play their games for testing purpose or maybe once when it's done, but beyond that they basically never touch their own games again.
So, what about the developers here on Era? Do you actually play your own games, more than once, even after they have been completed for a few months or even years? Or do you only play them maybe once and then never touch them again?
