Hi Damien,
Damien wrote: Good work on this beta. My reply: Thanks. I certainly put a lot of time and energy into this one. Damien wrote: I would suggest slowing the narrator speech down. Although I and possibly a load of other people could understand it at that rate, I personally know of some who would not be able to understand it at that speed and would struggle to navigate the menus because of it. My reply: Hmmmm....That's going to be a problem then. I spent almost an entire week recording and editing those speech clips, and have already put most of that in subversion to be used with other titles. I'm not exactly in any hurry to do all that work over again from scratch. Plus any slower and it will be too slow for me personally. So I don't know what to say. Let's see if anyone has any problems before resorting to putting another week into recreating well over 300 voice clips from scratch. Damien wrote: The second thing I would suggest is, since you now have to hold the relevant keys down to be able to jump over a trap, as soon as you land you instantly seem to start another jump before you can let go. My reply: Yeah, this is something I definitely want to work on. I've noticed problems with jumping like this as well. Especially, on ropes and things where you don't necessarily want Angela to jump, catch it, and swing off again. I've definitely got plans to fix this in the next beta. Damien wrote: My question is, the levers you pick up, do they disappear after a time? I must've picked up three levers where the one usually is and still can't get the statue to open. My reply: Well, you don't actually pick up the levers. Angela pulls it and it unlocks a statue somewhere else in the tomb. New in this release the statues are time so if you don't get there, and open it in a certain length of time the lock will reset, and you will have to travel back to the correct lever, pull it again, and then try and open the statue. The timer is completely random so it is a good idea to get back to the statue as quick as possible, don't doddle, or it will reset on you. That's what seams to be happening here. You aren't moving to the statue fast enough so the lock resets and seals the statue shut.
