    v44 v45  
    3131   The stage of development during which production has started in full, and prototypes of levels and assets are being iterated on. Voice acting should not be done at this point in development, although placeholder voice acting assets may be done. Gameplay changes should be tested and iterated on during this phase. 
    3232 Beta:: 
    33    The stage of development at the start of which general gameplay has been determined to be finalized. The script should also have been finalized by the beginning of this stage, so voice acting assets must be recorded at some point during this stage. Gameplay changes (and script changes) during this phase should not occur, and if they do occur, the changes must be extremely minor. (An exception may be made for script changes due to improv by voice actors.) During this stage, most development will probably be focused on aesthetic refinement.

    3434 Release Candidate:: 
    3535   The stage of development during which the project is in a state that is potentially releasable to the general public. Any Release Candidate build may be released to the public at any given point, if deemed to have no game-breaking issues (although only ONE build shall be marked as a "gold final" and released). If a game-breaking issue is found in any Release Candidate build, that build must be disqualified for release. Developers must not make any changes to the build that are not bug fixes.
