Subject: Re: [Audyssey] The real Game Circle
I agree with ya man,
I tried something different with rail racer, and I suppose it was
somewhat successful, but i got lots of complaints that it was too
complicated to play.
folks complain if it is too easy, if it is too hard, if it takes too much
practice to master, blah blah blah. just can't please all the folks all
the time.
next i am doing an online playable football game, driven with mouse
support, custom plays, online season play against human opponents, high
end sound effects, etc. . I was going to do a really involved fighting
game as posted on list here, but didn't get much feedback on it, and
didn't want to spend the next 18 months on something that wasn't going to
sell, especially such an ambitious project. I think the folks that would
have enjoyed the online fighting game would have really enjoyed it a lot,
as those that play rail racer constantly do, but there just aren't enough
of them out there to justify the time spent.
you can check the archives for details. the project might still get done,
but it will have to wait.
I think the masses want simple and easy, and those kind of games seem to
sell the best. troop n em sold a lot of copies, and at its core, its just
a simple shoot em up.
anyhow, i want a killer football game myself, so I'm gonna make one. if
folks like it fine, if not, whatever, you got to go with what yer
passionate about, or the results come out luke warm at best.
as for other developers out there, i can't comment, they do what they do,
and so far innovation hasn't been at the top of any of their lists lately
from what i've seen.
We can only hope that changes soon.
This is not a money making market to spend hundreds and perhaps thousands
of hours on a project and make just a few grand on it. you have to love
doing it almost as a hobby , or yer in for dissapointment.
I set up the card room because I love poker, and also to offset some of
my dedicated server costs, and folks that have played have told me they
are the best card games out there for the blind, with features not seen
anywhere else. But even so, nobody is gonna make a living doing this
stuff.
i've seen cracked copies of most of the accessible games out there, hosted
by fellow blinks. these people are total idiots, not realizing the damage
they are doing to the accessible gaming market, but they don't care. i
know some of them are reading this, and if you are sharing any cracked
games, you should be very ashamed of yourself. in sucha small market, the
damage you are doing is immense.
Bottom line, if your a fellow developer working on a game now, my hat is
off to you, this is a hard task without much reward or thanks, but non
developers don't get that and don't seem to care either. But having said
that, can't we push the envelope a little bit? Do we really need another
shoot em up or arcade action game? hasn't all that been done enough by
now?
later
