Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 16 Released!
I hate to be rude but some people need to just stuff it. It's hardly as though Thomas has been putting a gun to the entire community's head and forcing them to play his game. I haven't tried MOTA on the higher difficulties but the beginner level is just about right as far as I'm concerned, easy but at the same time not TOO easy. I'll worry about the higher levels after I beat the game a few times on Beginner.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi, Right. Although, being underwater helps, because Angela will have to hold her breath while underwater. The Hydra's breath was only faytal if you were unfortunate enough to breath it in. Holding your breath therefore protected you from that attack. If you were bitten, though, that would be a different matter. Cheers!

Like I said in another message the Hydra's bound to have some nasty physical attacks and if Thomas goes by the myth she was also said to have highly poisonous breath. Come to think of it her blood was said to be poisonous as well. But her breath alone was supposedly toxic enough to kill anyone who came near her. And of course Heracles dipped his arrows in her blood after killing her.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 16 Released!
In part, isn't that where the levels of difficulty come into play? The hardest level is for the more experienced gamers, while the easiest is for the less experienced, and the normal is for the approximate average gamers. I'm not a game producer, but I would think that you have an outline as to how the game should work, and you probably try to follow that outline, get the game to sort of work along that line, then modify it as needed until it is ready for the market. If suggestions are made by private or public testers, I would evaluate them. Are they doable? Do they fit into my game plan? Do they enhance?, or detract from the game. It would be up to you as to whether you ask gamers for their input about a suggestion once you have decided on it's feasibility. You probably already know this, but those are my 2 cents worth. The decision on whether or not to implement requested features is, in the end, yours. Thanks for all the time and effort you're putting into this long awaited project. Your willingness to please customers is very admirable, and I'll bet that most of the gamers are going to enjoy the finished product. Heck!

In part, isn't that where the levels of difficulty come into play? The hardest level is for the more experienced gamers, while the easiest is for the less experienced, and the normal is for the approximate average gamers. I'm not a game producer, but I would think that you have an outline as to how the game should work, and you probably try to follow that outline, get the game to sort of work along that line, then modify it as needed until it is ready for the market. If suggestions are made by private or public testers, I would evaluate them. Are they doable? Do they fit into my game plan? Do they enhance?, or detract from the game. It would be up to you as to whether you ask gamers for their input about a suggestion once you have decided on it's feasibility. You probably already know this, but those are my 2 cents worth. The decision on whether or not to implement requested features is, in the end, yours. Thanks for all the time and effort you're putting into this long awaited project.

Hi Bryan, That’s a pretty aped point. Over the passed six years or so since I started writing accessible games I’ve learned one very important thing. Simply put, it is impossible to please everybody. We all have different skills, different ideas what is the ideal game, whatever and trying to implement all of them is a fool’s task. It can’t be done. However, part of the problem here is that we’ve become something of an entitlement society. We think it is our right to have this or that handed to us, or that a developer should do this or that because it is suppose to be for the good of everybody. If a game is too hard then the developer should make it easier so the less skilled can play it too. If someone can’t figure out a trap or puzzle then the traps and puzzles should be made easier to guess etc. On the other hand, you have those who say that is too easy and the game should be harder, more difficult traps/puzzles, and so on. Who is right and who is wrong here? As the developer the decision what to do about it is sully on me. Part of the solution is by tuning out the special interest groups and making decisions on what I personally feel is right.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
That would agree with the Harry Potter books as well since Sirius tells Harry that dragons are most vulnerable in the eyes. That would seem to hint at a javelin or spear or maybe even a dirk, something that would let you attack from further away. Granted if it was a dirk you'd probably need to have several on hand since if the first blow wasn't fatal you'd need to land several more. And now I'm suddenly reminded of the Dragonlance novels since the Dragonlance was probably one of the only weapons, and I don't remember many others, with any hope of penetrating a dragon's scales. Granted if you were fighting a real dragon keeping your distance wouldn't be a complete protection since they can breathe fire and at quite a distance if my memory serves.

Re: [Audyssey] down the wrong track? - Re: MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Probably not. I don't think bullets would be able to punch through a dragon's scales and probably not even the softer hide underneath. Dragons are probably too powerfully magical for that. If we're talking fighting from a distance I'd put my money on either an enchanted bow, a crossbow a javelin/lance or posibly even shurakin, something small that could be obtained in plenty and thrown with a high degree of speed. Granted Shurakin are probably so small that they probably wouldn't be able to do much more than irritate a dragon, sort of like a human being bitten by a fly or a mosquito. Not particularly harmful unless of course you happened to have an allergy. I imagine throwing a Shurakin into a dragon's eye would be no more deadly to it than a bug bite generally would be to us.

[Audyssey] New game, towers of war
Hi. people already on the audiogames.net forums or who read the site news will know about this, but for everyone else I thought an announcement was in order. just over a week ago, a chap by the name of Jeremy Kaldovski turned up on the forum with the name Aprone. He was interested in stratogy games so we filled him in about sound rts, time of conflict etc. He expressed the desire to make a game for the Audio games community, we said nice idea thinking that perhaps we'd see something in a few months. Within 24 hours it'd appeared! I mean that, 24! hours! The game, now called towers of war, is the first ever audio tower defense game, this basically is a popular genre of graphical stratogy games where a number of monsters walk down a path from one end to the other, and the player must strategically build towers which shoot at the monsters to defeat them. The stratogy comes from where you build the towers, what towers you build, and how you upgrade them, sinse you've only got limited money. Within a week, the game now has several game modes, 20 levels, 4 maps (with a map editer in developement), and 6 different types of tower with new ones on the way. It also has audio grid review commands and various ways to track battles, pluss some high contrast graphics for those who would find them useful. Beta are literally being posted each night, each with more bug squashing and more features, so it's highly recommended to try the game. Just read http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?id=4327 for full description and links, including a link to a walkthru. It's also recommended to check the first post, sinse Aprone is updating it with a change logue and new feature list, as well as updated links to new betas. I can highly recommend this game, and in fact am really looking forward to seeing what gets added next. I think developement has been the fastest I've ever seen! considdering even the idea for an audio tower defense game wasn't around a fortnight ago. Beware the Grue!

Hi, You are getting warmer. Although, you are wrong about the eyes. Yes, it is true you could harm a dragon by blinding it, but Hydras don't work that way. They have multiple heads and multiple eyes. Anything you cut off or cut will heal quickly. So going for its eyes would likely just get it angry at you, and it will have you for breakfast. Grin.

I guess you'd have to look from different perspectives about that... being chinese, I know the myths and legends chinese people have about dragons... and they always talk about the eyes... that seems to be the point where a lot of chinese heroes defeated dragons was by stabbing them in the eye or whatnot. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Hi Charles, Well, I always use myself as the first and primary tester for difficulty levels. I figure I can beat it at a certain difficulty level then so can somebody else once they get enough skill at the game. If I feel something like expert is too hard to be realistic I tone it down which is something I plan on doing once I begin tweeking things. However, just because someone thinks beginner is too difficult doesn't mean I'm going to tone it down if I have no problem beating that level. They will just have to try harder which makes it a better and more challenging game in the long run.

Re: [Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14
Hi. I have to assume the people have deleted the files they linked you to, or gave you invalid links. Files placed in dropbox do not expire as they do with the free sendspace accounts. Also there isn't a download cap. I've placed free games in my public dropbox folder for people who couldn't find them, and as far as I know it's worked great. I've used both sendspace and dropbox, and to hear me tell it, I definitely favor dropbox or dorpbox as I call it. I think sendspace probably allows for faster upload speeds. Back on topic a little, did you notice that in mota beta 16, when you select a whip it repeats itself very quickly until you release the number you pressed to select your weapon? And also that weapons seem to wait for the spacebar to be released rather than pressed down? Oh and did you make the easily difficulty more difficult? *grin*. I used to make it to level 2 when I used beta 15, but in this one I die before I even get anywhere close to the second boss. Maybe I'm having a bad time of it. *lol*. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: Friday, November 05, 2010 6:28 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] using the sword in mota beta14 Hi Hayden, Well, as a big Sendspace user with a Max account I can give you lots of reasons why Dropbox is, well, not that good. For one thing with a Sendspace Max account you can download up to 8 GB per day, can store 100 GB of files on your account, use of the Sendspace Wizard, etc. Dropbox doesn't offerly nearly that much.

Hi. If you do want to use Monkey Term still, I don't know what happened to that import.xml file.

This setup installs support for JAWS, Window-Eyes and SAPI. It is available at http://valiant8086.com/games/muds/monkeyterm. Note someone has complained that Window-Eyes doesn't work with it.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 16 Released!
Replay value. I think, Dang! I blew it! Better try again! Sheesh, I almost beat it! I'm getting there, finally! Ah, success on the easy difficulty! Let's move on to the next level! More frustrating game play, but fun, too! I'll beat it one of these days, then go on to the next level. I never expect to beat a game right away. If I do, that level is too easy for me, and that's what the higher levels are for. Also, once I have mastered the easy difficulties and I'm just in the mood to beat the heck out of a game, I'll play them on the easy levels just to win.

Neither can you just take a swing at its hide with a sword, enchanted or not, because its body is covered in scales. However, like a dragon a Hydra has one spot that is pretty vulnerable if you can get to it. That’s all I’m going to say. P.S.

Hi, Sorry, to say you guys are barking up the wrong tree. There is something else in the game you have to find, and I'm not going to tell you what it is. As you already know a Hydra can't be defeated by lopping off its heads without using a torch to burn the necks shut. Of course, you can't do that underwater and without an extra person to help. Neither can you just take a swing at its hide with a sword, enchanted or not, because its body is covered in scales. However, like a dragon a Hydra has one spot that is pretty vulnerable if you can get to it. That's all I'm going to say. P.S. The Greeks were a master of this weapon, and used it ffar more than swords, daggers, and other weapons.

I think this is why a lot of mainstream devs generally don't talk to fans in public... they just scan forums and see what people say and put it in the suggestion box. But I agree. Mota should be done the way you want it to be, and the rest of us can either suck it up or find another game.

It can't be done. However, part of the problem here is that we've become something of an entitlement society. We think it is our right to have this or that handed to us, or that a developer should do this or that because it is suppose to be for the good of everybody. If a game is too hard then the developer should make it easier so the less skilled can play it too. If someone can't figure out a trap or puzzle then the traps and puzzles should be made easier to guess etc. On the other hand, you have those who say that is too easy and the game should be harder, more difficult traps/puzzles, and so on. Who is right and who is wrong here? As the developer the decision what to do about it is sully on me. Part of the solution is by tuning out the special interest groups and making decisions on what I personally feel is right.

Re: [Audyssey] Pirate memory
Hi Dark, yes, that's a sad thing indeed. I thought they wanted to rewrite the game to work with the new Klango, but I honestly don't know if this true or not or if this plan still exists. But you're right, it would be great to have it for new players too, since it is a really well made game.

Probably not. I don't think bullets would be able to punch through a dragon's scales and probably not even the softer hide underneath. Dragons are probably too powerfully magical for that. If we're talking fighting from a distance I'd put my money on either an enchanted bow, a crossbow a javelin/lance or posibly even shurakin, something small that could be obtained in plenty and thrown with a high degree of speed. Granted Shurakin are probably so small that they probably wouldn't be able to do much more than irritate a dragon, sort of like a human being bitten by a fly or a mosquito.

Where v3d came into play was when I was shooting an enemy I could tell what I was hitting. same with grenades but I don't think I could play a game like that, they have probably improved things since direct sound.
