One of the biggest problems that a game dev faces as they create a game is gaining a sort of "mothers love" for their game. This prevents them from being able to properly determine its flaws. Friends and family members tend to sugarcoat their feedback to avoid from being discouraging but this actually harms more than it helps. Roast My Game is a site created to help game developers gather 'sugarfree' feedback on games they are working on and to inspire other game developers by sharing development progress.
Anyone is allowed to post their game. Current games and games that you have worked on in the past are allowed to be posted as long as you have full permission from all the developers to post the game.
In popular culture, roasts are usually jokes used to point out someones flaws. Similarly, on Roast My Game, the goal is to find the flaws in games so that it can be improved. You are allowed to be 'rough' with your roast as long as it provides meaningful feedback to the dev on how and what to improve.
