BetaComp 2004 was a minicomp organized by Jessica Knoch. Like the previous year's contest, BetaComp 2003, entrants did not submit games of their own. Instead, entrants were asked to download a game that was still being developed and submit a beta-testing report as their entry. The game used in 2004's BetaComp was Planet of Death, Neil Bowers' port of a 1982 game. The beta-test reports were judged by both Jessica Knoch and Neil Bowers in the following categories: Organization, Clarity, Thoroughness, and Ability to criticize.
There were nine entrants. The results were:
- Honorable Mention: Mike Jones
- Pulling No Punches: Mark J. Tilford
- Best Use of Undo to Try Different Approaches: James Bond
- Best Encouragement (With Appropriate Fixes): Apollo Hogan
- Most Thorough Listing of Missing Synonyms: Esa A. Peuha
- Funniest Report and Most Critical Without Actually Insulting the Author: Adam Thornton
- Grammar King: Andrew Walters
- Second Place and gift certificate winner: Andrew Krywaniuk
- First Place, Best Beta-Test Report, and gift certificate winner: Graham Holden
