How should game developer access their own paid game?

Hello, what is the intended way for game developer to test downloading their own paid game? It feels weird having to pay for my own game to access the paid version page for testing purposes. Thanks in advance.

Heya,

You can download uploads of your game directly from editing the project page, by clicking 'more' right to that specific upload if that helps! You download it exactly as a user would who would have access to the project that way.

Hi there, thanks for the info!

Using the 'more' button does work, but it directly download the file instead opening the page which shows list of items like this one

My goal is making sure the paid version does show up in that page (and i can download it), but if i'm not wrong it will only show if i pay for my own game.

Might be unnecessary to test this, but I have a habit of making sure things works.

Ah, I see what you mean now--apologies!

Yeah, as far as I know the only way to truly test how it acts on the storefront is to buy it, unless I'm overlooking something. Definitely something I'd chime in support of as a feature for devs to test if such a thing is indeed not possible!
