Re: [Audyssey] A new audiogame MP3 demo
Hi Davy, It is late here, but I just wanted to drop you a quick e-mail saying that I think you are off to a great start. Your menu design is brilliant, sounds extremely user friendly, and the music you have for the audio demo sounds impressive as well. As a fellow game developer I just want to give you a big pat on the back, thumbs up, etc. In other words, good job. As for your English don't worry about it. I think you handled the language very well. I've heard much worse from fellow Americans, some of them in college, that didn't do as well as you did in your demo. If it makes you feel better there are some areas in America where poor English grammar is quite common. Some people grow up in racial or regional areas that have a slang that horrifies English teachers all over the world. Grin. For example, my grandma was born in the south, raised in the south, and said a lot of words phonetically and grammatically wrong. Instead of saying she was going to wash the close she'd say she had to worsh her close. Instead of calling a creek a creak she'd call it a crick. Instead of calling a fish a fish she'd call it a feesh. You get the idea. My grandma wasn't stupid by any means, actually was quite smart, but she just grew up around people who talked that way, and ended up saying words in a way that was phonetically and grammatically wrong. Sometimes I didn't know to laugh at it or try and correct her. Smile. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] A new audiogame MP3 demo
Hi, Quote Are you going to have mouse support for the game? End quote Well, that depends. If the player is able to control the wing thrusters of his/her fighter as well as the main engine seperately, then mouse support would be difficult. However, if the player just uses the arrow keys to control the fighter much like you control cars in Top Speed, then mouse support is indeed a cool feature to add. We'll see how development comes along. This determines the game's controls for a great deal. Quote I may be able to help with voiceovers etc for this. End quote Thanks for offering your help! For now, I will be using SAPI 5 voices, because I can easily create wave-files out of text with a little tool that a friend of mine created. This speeds up development, as I don't have to record and edit my own voice. So the game runs entirely on wave-sounds, but still it is too early to find the real voice for this project. However, I will certainly keep your kind offer in mind. Quote I'd certainly love to help test this. This is actually something I'm looking forward to getting my hands on. End quote I will stick to MP3 demos for the time being as everything that is created is just a seperate part. If you could start up your fighter and control the engines, you would probably not be able to fly somewhere, even with the engines running at a 100%. But as soon as parts are linked together and something playable comes out, I will either select a few private beta testers or release a public beta. This will take a few months, though. And of course I want to thank everybody for all the helpful messages they sent me. I do appreciate them very much! Thanks for the support!

Re: [Audyssey] A new audiogame MP3 demo
if you are just going to use sapi why not just link the thing in to sapi5 directly and not use these voice waves. ok its unrealistic but if you are intent on using sapi5 then I thought it could be better doing this and smaller to. ofcause some have issues with sapi could not play the thing. yeah when you have a voice then cool.

Actually it isn't, that's just one of those odd English sterriotypes. I have however encountered a few people who do use the word jolly eg jolly good occasionally in speech, so that one does at least exist. I'm always amazed in Us films how often English characters sound like sterriotypical second world war airforce pilots, - constantly saying things like criky! and having the word bloody every other sylable.
