Hi all,
Finally, Shades of Doom 2.0 is ready and out of beta.
What's new:
- Changes have been made so that sounds again represent the direction of the
monster or object. After a previous version of Windows was introduced,
sounds did not well reflect the actual position of the monsters and objects.
The sounds seemed to center when the monster or object was close to the
player character.
- Changes have been made to remove a few problems arising with the
introduction of Windows 8.1,
- The user data files are now kept in the user's documents folder instead of
being kept under the program files folder. This removes quite a few
problems when trying to locate where Windows saved these files, especially
for those running versions of Windows starting with the Vista version. This
change should also eliminate problems related to privileges.
- You may now use the mouse to play Shades of Doom.
- Most of the sounds have been improved.
- The EVA has a new voice.
- You can select EVA's voice choosing between the default built-in voice,
your screen readers' voice, or MS-SAPI.
- Cheat codes are included at no charge.
- There was a major reworking of the engine.
- Many small bugs have been fixed.
If you have not upgraded to Shades of Doom 2.0 during the beta, the upgrade
price is $9.95. For first-time purchasers, we have decided to keep the price
at $19.95 for the next little while. This is a $15 savings.
For those who have already registered for Shades of Doom 2.0 as a public
beta, you need only download and install the latest version and you are good
to go. The latest version is 2.0.21. You may already have this if you kept
up with the beta releases.
You can download Shades of Doom from the following website:
http://www.GMAGames.com
To take advantage of the upgrade price, you must have an account set up with
GMA Games. This will only take a minute. You must also have a Shades of Doom
1.2 registration in your on-line account. If you do not have this and you
have previously purchased a license to Shades of Doom 1.0 or 1.2, complete a
key replacement request through the Ordering Wizard found in many of our
games, and send it to [email protected]. We will try to process these as
soon as possible. We will create an account for you if you do not have one,
and add your Shades of Doom version 1 registration information to your
account. The lower upgrade price will then be shown when you place an
on-line order for Shades of Doom.
Although we use PayPal to process payments, you do not need a PayPal
account. PayPal accepts most if not all major credit cards.
Regards,
David Greenwood
