Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Bad news about Star base Orion
Re: Bad news about Star base Orion Well Slj, I am on Applevis but I dont tend to use their forums as I am busy with other places to keep checking each day, but if someone can pass on the news that would be great. I am rather disappointed I will admit, sinse the developer seems pretty adamant that there is no alternative he will even considder discussing which is a rather dire attitude. But you cant win them all, and at least there are games like star traders, Dark room and King of Dragon pass out there. indeed, when people have attitudes like this it is all the more reason to support those developers who wil! be reasonable about access. Im just sorry for anyone who did try to support this irritating individual by buying his game in hopes itd be made accessible in the future, and think he dam well deserves a zero star rating. On the plus side, I do have hopes Trees brothers will produce something in the same genre as starbase orion in the p; future. Regarding Startraders King gamer, well it is not an easy game to pick up and play, indeed its far harder than the smugglers games sinse you have absolutely no hand holding at all, even on easier difficulties. There are lots of things to keep track of, and lots of things you need to go and look at carefully, such as your faction standing and crew morale that can seriously affect your game if things go wrong.Equally, there are so many different factors to keep track of, what sort of cargo you have, what permits youve got, the rumours you hear, your ship stats. I had to actualy read through the manual several times and dip into it to check specific points before getting enough of a handle on the game to start expanding my horizon and enjoying myself.Of course, some people just dont get on with particular games (Im in no way a racing fan for example) which is fair enough, but with star traders I will say fir st impressions are probably less trustworthy sinse the learning curve is pretty steep, and the game is not particularly newby friendly.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=167522#p167522 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
[Audiogames-reflector] Bad news about Star base Orion
Bad news about Star base Orion Well I dont know how many people were hoping this Iphone game would have the last few acess fixes made, but unfortunately its not going to happen. Ive exchanged several E-mails with the developer, and hes pretty adamant not only that the map is unlabellable without two months work, but that there is no alternate way of dsiplaying the information (like the nav menue in Star traders), which would either be less work for him or more efficient. Indeed hes literally unwilling to discuss anything of the kind, which is down right disappointing particularly sinse Ive generally found in the past that most developers who havent had experience with accessible game developement dont usually have realistic expectations of what is necessary, and if you look at what is needed to make the game accessible it is often far less than they think. Sadly though this chap is totally unwilli ng to even discuss the matter and just says its too much work without any discussion or in put from vi gamers or those who have far more experience in making access fixes to game s(I suggested he contact Amir Rajan, developer of Dark room for suggestions sinse if anyone is an expert on iphone access its him, hes written some great stuff in his Blog).So if youve not bought the game, dont buy it. And if youve bought it in the hopes of it becoming accessible in the future, go and give it a zero rating on the ap store and say sinse this unwillingness to even discuss access fixes is frankly unreasonable.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=167440#p167440 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Bad news about Star base Orion
Re: Bad news about Star base Orion Star Traders is indeed accessible, but I found it hard to sink in to, as I didnt see how it would captivate me. I did give it about three days to see if Id come to like it, but alas, I didnt.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=167449#p167449 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Bad news about Star base Orion Thanks for the warning. People who are active on Applevis should share the news there also. I wish I also was active there, but a lot of things are constantly keeping me busy.
