Che, your plans on the wii mote actions is far more complicated than I thought.
Now I understand why is it that is difficult to translate them into key
strokes. In fact, the mouse alone wouldn't be sufficient to do all those I
think. Game controllers is the way to go. I hope you won't make it like wii
boxing which is totally motion bassed. You know, we have 12 hours differences.
If it is like wii boxing, I might have to exercise and sweat at 2 3 am over
here. hahaha! Maybe I played mortal kombat a lot and got used to the way it
works, I personally prefer a combination of both. What they does is, punch kick
combos are done by pressing the d pad in a specific sequence whereas special
power moves are pulled out by swinging the wii remote. Fatalities are done by
swinging both the wii remote and nunchuck. I still can't constantly excicute
the fatalities right yet.
Ok, I am thinking very far ahead now, but consider this. the features of blood
money already sounds as good as the mainstream fighting games. If it goes well,
you might want to explore the possibility of hiring someone to add in graphics
and make it the first title to be converted from accessible game for the blind
to a mainstream game.

Subject: [Audyssey] Blood money Online fighting
Hi all,
For now the working title of the online fighting game is Blood Money. This
will probably change, but we need something to call it instead of Blind
Adrenaline's online fighting game, hahaa.
And yes, I know there was a game in the eighties called Blood Money, one of
the better shoot 'em ups I ever played in fact.
Anyhow, maybe this time the thread won't get hijacked by those to
inconsiderate to change the subject line when they change the topic.
Back to the game:
Kel asked about the Wii controllers. Yes, from my research, we should have
full access to the Wii remotes, including force feedback, sending audio to the
remote itself and so forth, which should be an amazing way to interface with
this and future games from Blind Adrenaline. When you get ready to do a
roundhouse kick, you'll have to pull the nunchuck to you, while ripping the
main controller in a rainbow shape at the same time, pull both controllers to
your chest to block, etc. The possibilities are endless.
It looks like using XNA will also allow me to include the use of the XBox
controllers, which are amazing little devices, with two analog buttons on the
front, analog sticks on the top and force feedback as well. In my opinion,
these are the best non motion sensitive controllers out there, and being able
to use them with accessible games will be awesome.
Steady had some good ideas regarding tournament fighting, and it would be
interesting to gang fight, so you would have two or three people trying to take
out another two or three. This would add a whole new dimension to the game,
but executing this would be tricky for sure. I'd like to do it, but we'll have
to see how it goes as the game matures.
Did some latency testing today, and everything is looking good, at least in
the continental united states, I haven't done any testing over seas yet, but
we'll be doing that soon.
If you have any comments and suggestions for Blood Money, let me know, I am
outlining everything over the next few weeks, and I'd like to get your input
before coding starts so we make this the best fighting game out there.
Later,
