Re: [Audyssey] Games for Mac
hmmm I am not sure if this works or not but any vip game made with python will probably work. Mota has a mac file I think. You probably will need a vm to run windows though.

[Audyssey] audyssey plus or extra
Hi. I have been thinking on this for a week or so. I have been thinking on a something between issues of the mag, some sort of podcasts which has game playthroughs, reviews, etc. Mainly to run through the majority of audiogames on the forums and other places. The magazine is hardly regular and while I don't want to replace the magazine, something really needs to be done between issues. I myself have an external mic, I have skype, msn and a few things now, a crappy card in my box can probably record the games. I also have my soni handhold recorder. My major issue would be storage. Dropbox is the most likely for short term. Another is something like 000webhost but since the download is really hopeless resetting all the time for large files, I have second thoughts. I know where I can get a site for 60 us bucks a year, and a domain that costs 30 dollars a year. I have access to a few other places to, but some of those won't be regular. I guess I could use something like podbean or something but we will have to see. Firstly I need to know who is interested. This by no means will be all of my work. This is a chance for developers, and community members alike both on the list and the forums a like to talkk about things. Everything will probably be its own part and be split apart into seperate files. though this just an idea. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] swamp problem
The problem was actually that the server went down. I had a friend over and while we were working on some things in the basement the server got bumped and it pulled the Ethernet cord out. Neither of us realized it had happened until probably a few hours later. Hi Aprone and all, I've been playing swamp today, and ran into a rather frustrating problem. As I was reloading my hunting rifle, the game crashed. While this in itself was annoying, the real problem is that now (15 minutes after the event) my computer still can't connect to the server. I've deleted the swamp folder, and re-extracted everything, and it's not connecting. Any help on what I could do to fix this would be great. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] swamp problem
Your mouse is probably configured to be a left handed mouse. In control panel there is a mouse section which lets you reverse its buttons. Hi list: I am having a problem with swamp on my laptop. I have a mac and running a virtual machine. When I click on right click of a mouse i shoot my gun. Is this supposed to happen? I read the instructions and thought that the right click was supposed to make the character move. Am I correct with this? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
The balance issues of multiplayer are only temporary. I've been adding in weapons but really haven't done any work making those weapons balanced. These are all things I am in the process of working on. I've already decided that zombies will never wield weapons, especially not guns. I've never seen any interpretations of zombies where they could use weapons, so I have no desire to take that approach either. I do plan to make things more difficult though, I just haven't gotten to it yet. Deleting progress.ini will not reset your character. That information is stored on the server itself. There is not currently a way to start over unless you create a new name. Direct verbal chat is something I've looked in to at length. It is actually very complicated to implement so I don't see it happening. If it was something relatively easy to do, it would have been my first choice, trust me lol. Ok, don't shoot me or hack my head off, but I think that the multiplayer game balance is too easy. I mean, it's possible to get killed (just did, seem to have been at a zombie spawn point and multiple bandits appeared on top of me with no warning, but in general, it seems very possible to stay alive without having to make lots of snap decisions, once you know where you are and have any one of the top three weapons. Things that would make the game harder: make the zombies react to shots from a longer distance. I've had several instances where I fired and missed at a target, only to have it continue its slow patrol walk. I think that any target that is missed narrowly should immediately turn and search for the shooter. More zombies please. The single player game is too much, too many zombies in too little space, but the multi-player often feels empty. Perhaps tweak spawning a bit so there are more zombies at a time in the larger map size. Zombies should be able to acquire fire arms as well. perhaps they aren't excellent shots, but the concept of a zombie firing at you from a distance would be very frightening and would encourage the use of cover and sniping tactics. More zombie packs. It's easy to pick them off one at a time, but the fun comes when there's a pack of five or six. Maybe tweak the AI so that zombies that are near one another tend to agglomerate into packs. I think one has to erase progress.ini to go back to the beginning state of the game after once having saved. Future updates should automagically erase this file for a death situation, though not a crash. Zombies flooding the safe zone: Thematically, the safe zone is a known location where tasty human brains collect. As such, it should be under constant siege, thus making it more difficult for players to reach it without a concerted team effort to clear the area. I actually hung out southwest of the zone for a while and kept it clean, just on a whim, role-playing you understand, but if there's always a lot of zombies nearby, it becomes necessary to do this as the zone takes on more functions. You've already heard my thoughts on weapon drops and usage. And yes, this makes it harder to learn from the beginning. Perhaps allow for a beginner mode in multiplayer where the character is by default more stealthy, thus drawing less unexpected attention. perhaps this mode exists until the player has reached a certain number of kills, then it is permanently removed. Re: chat, I'm sorry, I just don't use this feature in its current incarnation. It's a great idea, but the limitations are such that I don't find myself with a need. Would it be feasible to simply implement direct verbal chat for those of us with headset mikes? You'd hold down a transmit key and simply talk and it would be broadcast over the server with the same sound localization. This would replace the slash key, and would remove universal chat, but would make actual character cooperation much more intuitive. I don't know if this would be technically difficult, my understanding of networking protocols is limited. Looking forward to the next incarnation.

[Audyssey] Perilous hearts audio demo!
Hi folks! After some requests, I have decided to release a much longer audio demo of my upcoming game Perilous Hearts. In this demo I explore the store at the start of the adventure where you can build up your inventory so to speak, and then I go on to complete levels 1 and 2. Note that if you do not want any plot or strategy spoilers, do not listen! Also note that if you are offended or otherwise affected by the killing of little virtual monkeys, this may not be suitable for you either as I do end up killing quite a few of the little cuddly things. And oh how I enjoy it! Smirk. I would very much appreciate everyones feedback on this. There's obviously lots more further ahead in the adventure, but this gives a much better introduction to the game than what I provided in my last speech.

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMA tank commander
For your first request: Just read the manual or press f1 in the game. Second: But.. why? If you never played the game before (sounds like it) there'd be no challenge if you just turned on cheats and roared your way through the 6 levels with unlimited ammo and invisibility. Trust me when I say it's not as rewarding. I just used to cheat my way through and just follow walkthroughs, but I do that only in extreme cases of stuckyness now, and it's certainly more enjoyable.. especially seeing how limited the AG market is.

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMA tankcommander
Hi Austin. Firstly, all the keyboard keys are listed in the games manual, I suggest you look there, sinse that's what it's for. It also has handy tips on stratogy and even an overview of all the games' missions. Second, sinse the cheatcodes are copy specific to the game and need unlocking individually, we can't tell you what they are, and to be honest the fact that you've not even tried the game and yet are asking for cheats is I think not really a good thing, especially for a game which has difficulty modes that run from extremely! easy to very difficult, pluss a training mode for you to get used to the game. Lastly, Might I suggest that what you require most is some manners, particularly as regards using the word please. Asking for help with a game is fine, we've all done it and it's one of the purposes of this list, but simply saying I require as if your ordering items from a catalogue is really not a pleasant way of doing it and probably won't encline others to take the time to write you an answer, even more especially when you are asking something which could really be answered in the games documentation anyway. I'm sorry if this comes across as harsh, it's certainly not intended as a slight or a putdown, it's just a reminder sinse I'm afraid messages like your previous one are rather likely to irritate people or at the least not be answered.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
Ok, I really should have responded to this thread a little while ago, but here goes. As far as zombie packs go, I do agree that there should be more of them, but not all zombies should be in packs. If you have nothing but packs of five or six (or even two or three) zombies running around, having no ammo is a certain death statement. Also, as far as switching weapons timing goes, I've been in more than one situation even today (it's 7:45 am now) where if I didn't switch weapons right away, it would be the end of me. As far as encumbrance goes, I believe that it could be an interesting factor, but too much of it would overbalance the game. It's hard enough to survive as is. In regards to what chris said, I highly disagree with the idea of moving/fighting decreasing health and med-packs being less and less useful. If the safe zone is going to be under siege (which sounds awesome for multiple reasons) it would spell out death for a player who spent too long away from there. Also, this could trap players in the safe zone, and would eventually force the few remaining players to be extremely careful as to what they did, as there can't be reenforcement. I feel like I'm missing a few statements, so there may be another email from me on the subject, but this is all for now. I'd also like to make a suggestion, as in castaways, add a guide for zombie/weapon types, and a general explanation of the map. I managed to get a very helpful player to explain the weapons to me last night, but I still find the zombies confusing. As well, I don't really know the map (thank god for tracking beacons). Hope this rather long message makes sense, John. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
Ok, as I said in my earlier message, I missed a point. That was verbal chat. I could see that as an extra toggle, but bare in mind that many people don't have access to a mic (I didn't until I got a laptop with an internal one) so you could be severely inconveniencing everybody without a microphone. - Original Message - From: Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Tue, 8 Nov 2011 01:41:00 -0800 (PST) Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections. The balance issues of multiplayer are only temporary. I've been adding in weapons but really haven't done any work making those weapons balanced. These are all things I am in the process of working on. I've already decided that zombies will never wield weapons, especially not guns. I've never seen any interpretations of zombies where they could use weapons, so I have no desire to take that approach either. I do plan to make things more difficult though, I just haven't gotten to it yet. Deleting progress.ini will not reset your character. That information is stored on the server itself. There is not currently a way to start over unless you create a new name. Direct verbal chat is something I've looked in to at length. It is actually very complicated to implement so I don't see it happening. If it was something relatively easy to do, it would have been my first choice, trust me lol. Ok, don't shoot me or hack my head off, but I think that the multiplayer game balance is too easy. I mean, it's possible to get killed (just did, seem to have been at a zombie spawn point and multiple bandits appeared on top of me with no warning, but in general, it seems very possible to stay alive without having to make lots of snap decisions, once you know where you are and have any one of the top three weapons. Things that would make the game harder: make the zombies react to shots from a longer distance. I've had several instances where I fired and missed at a target, only to have it continue its slow patrol walk. I think that any target that is missed narrowly should immediately turn and search for the shooter. More zombies please. The single player game is too much, too many zombies in too little space, but the multi-player often feels empty. Perhaps tweak spawning a bit so there are more zombies at a time in the larger map size. Zombies should be able to acquire fire arms as well. perhaps they aren't excellent shots, but the concept of a zombie firing at you from a distance would be very frightening and would encourage the use of cover and sniping tactics. More zombie packs. It's easy to pick them off one at a time, but the fun comes when there's a pack of five or six. Maybe tweak the AI so that zombies that are near one another tend to agglomerate into packs. I think one has to erase progress.ini to go back to the beginning state of the game after once having saved. Future updates should automagically erase this file for a death situation, though not a crash. Zombies flooding the safe zone: Thematically, the safe zone is a known location where tasty human brains collect. As such, it should be under constant siege, thus making it more difficult for players to reach it without a concerted team effort to clear the area. I actually hung out southwest of the zone for a while and kept it clean, just on a whim, role-playing you understand, but if there's always a lot of zombies nearby, it becomes necessary to do this as the zone takes on more functions. You've already heard my thoughts on weapon drops and usage. And yes, this makes it harder to learn from the beginning. Perhaps allow for a beginner mode in multiplayer where the character is by default more stealthy, thus drawing less unexpected attention. perhaps this mode exists until the player has reached a certain number of kills, then it is permanently removed. Re: chat, I'm sorry, I just don't use this feature in its current incarnation. It's a great idea, but the limitations are such that I don't find myself with a need. Would it be feasible to simply implement direct verbal chat for those of us with headset mikes? You'd hold down a transmit key and simply talk and it would be broadcast over the server with the same sound localization. This would replace the slash key, and would remove universal chat, but would make actual character cooperation much more intuitive. I don't know if this would be technically difficult, my understanding of networking protocols is limited. Looking forward to the next incarnation.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
There, at least according to Jeremy, is a consequence of death, at least once the safe zone becomes a storehouse. Unless I misread something, you drop whatever you were carrying when you die, once that's in effect. Imagine you're walking around with a rather difficult to find, rather expensive weapon. You die, and it's gone. That'd suck enough to discourage death, even if you do just go back to the last save state. Add to that that if the save hasn't happened anytime soon, as has happened to me on a crash situation, you may lose a lot of collected ammo and earned kills. Death sucks, even without it being permanent. Now, I do say this. I personally love the idea of permanent death, just not in this setting. I don't have anything explicitly against it, just that I think it doesn't add to the story line or really too much to the setting, although it does make you more careful. Instead, it can frustrate longtime players, if their awesome character dies. That's why so few games include a really permanent death. As for the fatigue aspect, I'd like it for people to be tired after running a lot. I know I'd be. Granted, I'm not in the best shape, but I imagine anyone would be tired after running/jogging around for hours. The game Alone in the Dark features a fairly in shape detective who eventually starts staggering if you make him run too much, because he gets fatigued. I don't know that fighting should add to this, as most fighting is done with guns. True, firing a gun isn't necessarily easy, but it isn't truly strenuous on its own. It makes, I think, more sense to just include fatigue for running. It's a bit more work on the server, what with it needing, probably, two timers for each character: a how long you've been running and a how long you've been not running. Still, walking rocks and it makes sense. I like the idea for the medkits to be less effective, but I don't think it should involve the safe zone. If the zone becomes so important, people won't leave it. it's already the store, warehouse, save point, and possibly doctor's office. If it becomes the reset point for your medkits' effectiveness, people may not leave. However, I can suggest an alternative that may be acceptable, though it would involve another timer. Medkits should maybe have a cool down period. Not that you can't use another one, just that it loses, say, 20 percent of its effectiveness if delivered within a certain time, or that percentage of loss could depend on how soon. For example: Bob takes a medkit, which gives him a 20 percent health boost to put him at 50 percent health. A timer starts in the program. The maximum time is 3 minutes. Within the first 30 seconds, the medkit is only 25 percent effective, delivering 5 percent health to Bob. The next thirty seconds restores the medkit to 50 percent effectiveness, delivering 10 health. From there, 5 percent effectiveness is restored to the medkit for each thirty seconds. So the patern is like this: first 30 seconds is +5 health, second 30 seconds is +10 percent, third thirty is 12 percent, fourth thirty is 14 percent, fifth thirty is 16 percent, sixth thirty is 18 percent, and after that the medkit is restored to full effectiveness. That was long and complicated, and I hope it made sense. Signed: Dakotah Rickard On 11/8/11, Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com wrote: The balance issues of multiplayer are only temporary.

I do plan to make things more difficult though, I just haven't gotten to it yet. Deleting progress.ini will not reset your character. That information is stored on the server itself. There is not currently a way to start over unless you create a new name. Direct verbal chat is something I've looked in to at length. It is actually very complicated to implement so I don't see it happening. If it was something relatively easy to do, it would have been my first choice, trust me lol. Ok, don't shoot me or hack my head off, but I think that the multiplayer game balance is too easy. I mean, it's possible to get killed (just did, seem to have been at a zombie spawn point and multiple bandits appeared on top of me with no warning, but in general, it seems very possible to stay alive without having to make lots of snap decisions, once you know where you are and have any one of the top three weapons.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
decisions, once you know where you are and have any one of the top three weapons. Things that would make the game harder: make the zombies react to shots from a longer distance. I've had several instances where I fired and missed at a target, only to have it continue its slow patrol walk. I think that any target that is missed narrowly should immediately turn and search for the shooter. More zombies please. The single player game is too much, too many zombies in too little space, but the multi-player often feels empty. Perhaps tweak spawning a bit so there are more zombies at a time in the larger map size. Zombies should be able to acquire fire arms as well. perhaps they aren't excellent shots, but the concept of a zombie firing at you from a distance would be very frightening and would encourage the use of cover and sniping tactics. More zombie packs. It's easy to pick them off one at a time, but the fun comes when there's a pack of five or six. Maybe tweak the AI so that zombies that are near one another tend to agglomerate into packs. I think one has to erase progress.ini to go back to the beginning state of the game after once having saved. Future updates should automagically erase this file for a death situation, though not a crash. Zombies flooding the safe zone: Thematically, the safe zone is a known location where tasty human brains collect. As such, it should be under constant siege, thus making it more difficult for players to reach it without a concerted team effort to clear the area. I actually hung out southwest of the zone for a while and kept it clean, just on a whim, role-playing you understand, but if there's always a lot of zombies nearby, it becomes necessary to do this as the zone takes on more functions. You've already heard my thoughts on weapon drops and usage. And yes, this makes it harder to learn from the beginning. Perhaps allow for a beginner mode in multiplayer where the character is by default more stealthy, thus drawing less unexpected attention. perhaps this mode exists until the player has reached a certain number of kills, then it is permanently removed. Re: chat, I'm sorry, I just don't use this feature in its current incarnation. It's a great idea, but the limitations are such that I don't find myself with a need. Would it be feasible to simply implement direct verbal chat for those of us with headset mikes? You'd hold down a transmit key and simply talk and it would be broadcast over the server with the same sound localization. This would replace the slash key, and would remove universal chat, but would make actual character cooperation much more intuitive. I don't know if this would be technically difficult, my understanding of networking protocols is limited. Looking forward to the next incarnation.

Re: [Audyssey] Perilous hearts audio demo!
Hi Philip. Really nice demo, the ai of the creatures came across very well, though I do have to wonder what you have against monkies, sinse you seemed to go on a real killing spree there, I wonder if the alpha monkey and his crew from tarzan junior gave you a disturbed childhood? :D. I wonder if melany was working on Monkey conservation? :D. Seriously I do like the sound of the game, the sounds are exelent and the gameplay looks fantastic, however I stil have a couple of questions and suggestions. Firstly, as regards the store. While I'm not asking for spoilers, I do hope it's possible to pick up extra items such as amo for your guns later in the game, sinse otherwise that could make things possibly more tricky than they need to be. It'd be a real shame to get to the final boss or game challenge and fail because you run out of bullits and can't get anymore. Secondly, I was wondering about the 2D aspects of the game. As far as I could gather, you couldn't jump onto ledges above you but needed a vine to climb, which was identified by a vine swinging sound. At that point you were up in the trees and could shoot down or presumably climbe higher if you found another vine. How much however has been made of the ledge jumping? could you for instance jump from tree to tree without the use of vines or jump onto a treebranche directly from the ground, sinse I couldn't particularly tell if there were any sounds to indicate branches above or to either side of you. If the game is extensively 2D as I hope you might want to think about the indicator sounds for ledge endings or ledges above. Lastly, speaking of indicators a regen sound for when a medikit is in effect might be a good idea, sinse I couldn't tell when you were or were not regenerating health, and if calculating how many kits to use at what time this could be important to know. perhaps a slow calm breathing sound for when the kit is in effect? That way if it gets to the end of regeneration and health is not at exelent we can always use another kit, but with the way things currently work it'd be a case of having to check health status many times as in fact you did in the demo. I'm really looking forward to the game. The sounds and music were great, and even though i confess I'm not a huge fan of kidnapped girl plotlines I am interested to see where the story goes.

Re: [Audyssey] Perilous hearts audio demo!
Hi guys, Thanks for all the nice comments! I spend a lot of time on my sound work so I'm really very glad that you're all liking that. To answer Dark's question about the 2d aspect of the game, you can certainly jump up on branches without climbing on vines. It just depends on the height of the branch in question, and when it comes to the tree near the quicksand it is too high for you to jump directly. There are plenty of other trees with several low hanging branches though. There is also an upcoming level where you are making your way up a mountain, and there you have to jump from ledge to ledge quite a lot and without any vines. Regarding items, yes you will definitely be getting things that help you along the way... Including friends who travel with you and who pack quite a powerful punch in their own right. You can choose when you do and when you do not want them to fight for you, so you might spare them until you get to the harder battles. I say no more. Smile. And lastly, regarding the medkits I have to think about that one. The player makes quite a few sounds all the time so having those interrupted by constant breathing as you regenerate might get a bit tiresome. Usually one medkit boosts you one level, so if you are criticly injured and take one medkit you will go to severely injured, and after another one you will just be injured, then slightly injured, fair, great, and excellent.

I'm talking about a game with complexity, depth and a reason for different types of strategic choices. Jeremy has presented us with a great, fun game. it could be the basis for the first truly multi-layered FPS game we've ever had, with a replay value that dwarfs Shades of Doom. Does this mean the game becomes more complex? yes it does, and if Jeremy is willing to go there, I am encouraging him to do so. Look at Castaways.

Re: [Audyssey] Perilous hearts audio demo!
Ok, now I really can't wait to get my grubby little paws on this one LOL. They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa! - Original Message - From: Philip Bennefall phi...@blastbay.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2011 7:28 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Perilous hearts audio demo! Hi guys, Thanks for all the nice comments! I spend a lot of time on my sound work so I'm really very glad that you're all liking that. To answer Dark's question about the 2d aspect of the game, you can certainly jump up on branches without climbing on vines. It just depends on the height of the branch in question, and when it comes to the tree near the quicksand it is too high for you to jump directly. There are plenty of other trees with several low hanging branches though. There is also an upcoming level where you are making your way up a mountain, and there you have to jump from ledge to ledge quite a lot and without any vines. Regarding items, yes you will definitely be getting things that help you along the way... Including friends who travel with you and who pack quite a powerful punch in their own right. You can choose when you do and when you do not want them to fight for you, so you might spare them until you get to the harder battles. I say no more. Smile. And lastly, regarding the medkits I have to think about that one. The player makes quite a few sounds all the time so having those interrupted by constant breathing as you regenerate might get a bit tiresome. Usually one medkit boosts you one level, so if you are criticly injured and take one medkit you will go to severely injured, and after another one you will just be injured, then slightly injured, fair, great, and excellent.

Hi Philip. Really nice demo, the ai of the creatures came across very well, though I do have to wonder what you have against monkies, sinse you seemed to go on a real killing spree there, I wonder if the alpha monkey and his crew from tarzan junior gave you a disturbed childhood? :D. I wonder if melany was working on Monkey conservation? :D. Seriously I do like the sound of the game, the sounds are exelent and the gameplay looks fantastic, however I stil have a couple of questions and suggestions. Firstly, as regards the store. While I'm not asking for spoilers, I do hope it's possible to pick up extra items such as amo for your guns later in the game, sinse otherwise that could make things possibly more tricky than they need to be. It'd be a real shame to get to the final boss or game challenge and fail because you run out of bullits and can't get anymore. Secondly, I was wondering about the 2D aspects of the game. As far as I could gather, you couldn't jump onto ledges above you but needed a vine to climb, which was identified by a vine swinging sound. At that point you were up in the trees and could shoot down or presumably climbe higher if you found another vine. How much however has been made of the ledge jumping? could you for instance jump from tree to tree without the use of vines or jump onto a treebranche directly from the ground, sinse I couldn't particularly tell if there were any sounds to indicate branches above or to either side of you. If the game is extensively 2D as I hope you might want to think about the indicator sounds for ledge endings or ledges above. Lastly, speaking of indicators a regen sound for when a medikit is in effect might be a good idea, sinse I couldn't tell when you were or were not regenerating health, and if calculating how many kits to use at what time this could be important to know. perhaps a slow calm breathing sound for when the kit is in effect? That way if it gets to the end of regeneration and health is not at exelent we can always use another kit, but with the way things currently work it'd be a case of having to check health status many times as in fact you did in the demo. I'm really looking forward to the game. The sounds and music were great, and even though i confess I'm not a huge fan of kidnapped girl plotlines I am interested to see where the story goes. All the best, Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

There, at least according to Jeremy, is a consequence of death, at least once the safe zone becomes a storehouse. Unless I misread something, you drop whatever you were carrying when you die, once that's in effect. Imagine you're walking around with a rather difficult to find, rather expensive weapon. You die, and it's gone. That'd suck enough to discourage death, even if you do just go back to the last save state. Add to that that if the save hasn't happened anytime soon, as has happened to me on a crash situation, you may lose a lot of collected ammo and earned kills. Death sucks, even without it being permanent. I don't find that an emotionally satisfying argument, which is subjective and I'm not saying you're wrong. But this is a horror genre game. A game tells a story. Horror is by definition about, well, horror, which means it's about facing tremendous odds and either dying horribly or triumphing against those odds. Death is a sine qua non of the genre. Now it may be that I'm bringing literary tropes over into the game world, and that may be inappropriate. I have less than zero interest in a game that doesn't engage my emotions. This is why I have tended to not care about FPS style games, since they seem to be about technique. Here I have a chance to have input on the ground level of such a game. I don't personally find the loss of an assault rifle to be a sufficient consequence of dying. That may be because I'm not steeped in the tropes of mainstream gaming. If that's true, sobeit, I'll accept that critique. Now, I do say this. I personally love the idea of permanent death, just not in this setting. I don't have anything explicitly against it, just that I think it doesn't add to the story line or really too much to the setting, although it does make you more careful. Instead, it can frustrate longtime players, if their awesome character dies. That's why so few games include a really permanent death. The frustration of losing a carefully built-up character is part of the emotional consequences I'm talking about. Why is this different from getting through five and a half sectors of GTC, or to level 9 in SOD, or hell, even getting eleven catapults built in Castaways, then having it all go wrong? Is this a genre thing? See previous comments for the role of death in the horror genre. As for the fatigue aspect, I'd like it for people to be tired after running a lot. I know I'd be. Granted, I'm not in the best shape, but I imagine anyone would be tired after running/jogging around for hours. The game Alone in the Dark features a fairly in shape detective who eventually starts staggering if you make him run too much, because he gets fatigued. I don't know that fighting should add to this, as most fighting is done with guns. True, firing a gun isn't necessarily easy, but it isn't truly strenuous on its own. It makes, I think, more sense to just include fatigue for running. It's a bit more work on the server, what with it needing, probably, two timers for each character: a how long you've been running and a how long you've been not running. Still, walking rocks and it makes sense. Your technical comments are apt, and I can't speak to them. But fighting with guns is, according to anyone I've ever spoken to or read who has actually done it, quite fatiguing, not so much because of the physical strain, but because of the constant dumping of adrenaline into the system and its subsequent usage. The body can only do so much of that before it begins to tell. Still, I think your idea is probably a good compromise. I like the idea for the medkits to be less effective, but I don't think it should involve the safe zone. If the zone becomes so important, people won't leave it. it's already the store, warehouse, save point, and possibly doctor's office. If it becomes the reset point for your medkits' effectiveness, people may not leave. However, I can suggest an alternative that may be acceptable, though it would involve another timer. Medkits should maybe have a cool down period. Not that you can't use another one, just that it loses, say, 20 percent of its effectiveness if delivered within a certain time, or that percentage of loss could depend on how soon. *lengthy example deleted for space*. But if you never leave the safe zone, what's the point in playing the game? The reset idea makes it likely that you have to come back to the safe zone every so often, but it doesn't keep you there. your idea is also a good one though, and let's see what other people think.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
I do take the point about simulation versus game. I remember how much fun it was, in Fallout II, to carry around ungodly amounts of weaponry and explosives. However, I love the concept of a realistic FPS. As I said, not realistic like unplayable, just realistic like not quake, or more truthfully, not doom. I like the 2d awesomeness that we have, and I can only praise Jeremy for what he's done. I would, frankly, love to see where he alone would want Swamp to go, whether it's incumbrance, fatigue, more weapons, flying monkeys, sheep zombies, or what have you. I'm so impressed with what I've seen so far that I can't imagine us coming up with anything to dwarf it. However, I will briefly say that the medkit thing is a potential idea that would probably be annoying to implement. That's the same with running. I think part of the problem is that we default to that, and most people either don't want to change it, don't know how, or don't care. As for the safe zone being under siege, it kind of makes sense that it'd be hard to clear, given the amount of zombie stuff out there suggesting sieges by the hoards, but it eventually becomes a question, as it was put, of simulation or game. If the safe zone is under siege, it would take a concerted effort of many players to clear the area. In fact, it'd probably take a bunch shooting their way out, running off, and making hellacious noise to attract zombies. To that end, I really would love to see the player communications, the Over here and such attract zombies. Even if it isn't all the messages, I think there maybe should be a way to attract them easily, if that's your choice, without wasting tons of ammo. Thanks again for the wake up call of game versus simulation. I hope I never forget that again.

Hi Philip, I just listened to the demmo, unfortunatley for me I decided to have my dinner at the same time and was treated to the lovely sound of corpses being eaten :) Where did you get that sound from? Also out of interest is it possible to shoot and eat a vulture? I like how you can save multible adventures, if one doesn't work out you can try a different way of doing things in a different slot. I hate to ask, but will the game be out in time for Christmas, I've been a good girl all year I promis :) Also how do you shoot in different directions like up down and side to side?

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMA tank commander
Hi, No offense, but if this is your first time playing you will sorely be disappointed in the game if you enable the cheat codes. Reason being is certain cheats such as the invisibility cheat make it impossible for the enemy tanks, bases, etc to fire on you. I recommend playing the game a while normally before playing with the all ammo or invisibility cheat codes. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMA tankcommander
Hi Dark, Well said. I admit I was rather short with him a minute ago exactly because I felt his message was rude and came off like we owe him an answer or something. Saying I require was pretty darn rude in my opinion. Plus the fact he mentioned he wanted the keyboard commands--which is in the manual--just irritated me since that is what its for. Anyone who can't or won't look up an answer in the manual is just lazy and doesn't deserve a reply on list as far as I am concerned. As for the cheat codes go they are not tied to a specific product key like Shades of Doom, but I sorely wish they were. That way it would force lazy cheaters to actually play the game first, winning the cheat codes, instead of having the codes handed to them without trying the game to begin with. After all, if they don't want to play the game without cheating what's the point in buying and playing it in the first place? ' Cheers! On 11/8/11, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi Austin. Firstly, all the keyboard keys are listed in the games manual, I suggest you look there, sinse that's what it's for. It also has handy tips on stratogy and even an overview of all the games' missions. Second, sinse the cheatcodes are copy specific to the game and need unlocking individually, we can't tell you what they are, and to be honest the fact that you've not even tried the game and yet are asking for cheats is I think not really a good thing, especially for a game which has difficulty modes that run from extremely! easy to very difficult, pluss a training mode for you to get used to the game. Lastly, Might I suggest that what you require most is some manners, particularly as regards using the word please. Asking for help with a game is fine, we've all done it and it's one of the purposes of this list, but simply saying I require as if your ordering items from a catalogue is really not a pleasant way of doing it and probably won't encline others to take the time to write you an answer, even more especially when you are asking something which could really be answered in the games documentation anyway. I'm sorry if this comes across as harsh, it's certainly not intended as a slight or a putdown, it's just a reminder sinse I'm afraid messages like your previous one are rather likely to irritate people or at the least not be answered.

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMAtankcommander
Hi tom. I used to play many games with cheats on the amigar, but have rather got out of that habbit precisely because! I preferd to complete them without. These days, the only time I use cheat codes are either A, for access reasons, for instance turning off the time limit in order to give me more time to look at a graphical screen or B, in some older console games that do not have a save or password feature to substitute for these so that I do not constantly have to play earlier levels over and over again to get to the later ones which I might actually be on, thus I can skip to the start of whatever level I was on last which saves considderable amounts of time. For modern games on the pc or accessible ones though neither of these obviously applies, and generally the only time I'll use cheats is for a couple of seconds of amusement value, like at one point I had great fun mowing down all the enemmies in superliam with a machine gun. I will confess I've not earned the gma tank cheats, mostly because I'm afraid I simply completed the game once and then didn't play for quite some time after that (actually it's a long while sinse i tried the game myself), but this is my own fault and certainly I'd rather not just be told the cheats.

Re: [Audyssey] Games for Mac
Hi, Well, in that case I can't help you there. The fact of the matter is that mainstream developers usually don't create native Mac ports of their games. What ends up happening is they will work with a commercial emulator like Transgaming's Cider so that the PC version will run on Mac via the emulator. That's what E.A. Games and a lot of mainstream game developers do instead of creating Mac specific ports.

[Audyssey] New Interactive accessible comic
Andrew Plotkin, a member of the Boston Indies Group announced the release of Meanwhile for the iOS. It is an interactive comic by Jason Shiga. The plot is: On the way home from the ice cream store, little Jimmy discovers a mad scientist’s wonderland: an experimental mind-reading helmet, a time machine, and a doomsday device that can annihilate the human race. Which one would you like to test out first? MEANWHILE is not an ordinary comic. YOU make the choices that determine how the story unfolds. MEANWHILE splits off into thousands of different adventures. Most will end in DOOM and DISASTER. Only one path will lead you to happiness and success. - A thrilling adventure of quantum physics, self-discovery, and kids getting into trouble. (We mentioned the doomsday device, right?) - Completely redesigned by the author for an infinite scrollable canvas. - Full audio accessibility with VoiceOver; every panel and choice can be spoken. This can be played on the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. To access it, go to http://zarfhome.com/meanwhile/ The reason that this interactive comic was made accessible is because Kwasi Mensah, creator of StemStumper, did a talk on iOS game design and accessibility at a conference last spring. So the developer decided to try to make it accessible and this is the result.

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.
I'm sorry not not seeming as active lately. I've been busy with a few things, working on Swamp, and reading many many emails posts and messages. Because I was finding myself responding to about 40 messages a day, some being quite long, I have started to conserve energy by not responding to everyone for the time. I am still receiving and reading them all, so please don't misinterpret my quietness as a lack of interest in the community's thoughts. The game of course has bugs in its current form, but for the most part it is pretty stable. When I'm not accidentally pulling the Ethernet cord out of the server it is stable, I mean. Haha, sorry again to all of those who were affected by that yesterday. Because the game is fairly stable, I am taking this time to implement several changes before I upload the next game update.

Re: [Audyssey] New Interactive accessible comic
Hello, Eleanor Robinson. May I forward this to people who may be interested in this but who aren't on this mailing list? Christina - Original Message - From: Eleanor Robinson elea...@7128.com To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2011 4:30 PM Subject: [Audyssey] New Interactive accessible comic Andrew Plotkin, a member of the Boston Indies Group announced the release of Meanwhile for the iOS. It is an interactive comic by Jason Shiga. The plot is: On the way home from the ice cream store, little Jimmy discovers a mad scientist’s wonderland: an experimental mind-reading helmet, a time machine, and a doomsday device that can annihilate the human race. Which one would you like to test out first? MEANWHILE is not an ordinary comic. YOU make the choices that determine how the story unfolds. MEANWHILE splits off into thousands of different adventures. Most will end in DOOM and DISASTER. Only one path will lead you to happiness and success. - A thrilling adventure of quantum physics, self-discovery, and kids getting into trouble. (We mentioned the doomsday device, right?) - Completely redesigned by the author for an infinite scrollable canvas. - Full audio accessibility with VoiceOver; every panel and choice can be spoken. This can be played on the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. To access it, go to http://zarfhome.com/meanwhile/ The reason that this interactive comic was made accessible is because Kwasi Mensah, creator of StemStumper, did a talk on iOS game design and accessibility at a conference last spring. So the developer decided to try to make it accessible and this is the result.

Though it will mainly be updating on game releases. Yes I'm sorry I've dropped the ball on producing the mag but life has given me alot to deal with the last while and I'm hoping now the worse is over and plan to keep it to the previous schedule of issuing.

Re: [Audyssey] audyssey plus or extra
Hello, I am looking forward to issue 55. I'm also agreeing with the ideas presented, I know there's a lot of games that have docs that are nonexistent or hard to follow or games themselves that are very complex and reading docs on them you kind of walk away going, huh I don't get it. I hope that makes sense. I'd like to offer services and resources I have access to for the podcast. I do have a server and can utilize it for podcasting, but storage I really don't have that much, it's about 20 gb, that'll get eaten pretty fast even with 64k mp3/ogg files, anything higher than that and the problem will exaserbate. I've also got site design experience, if I can help in producing content, or updating anything, let me know. As far as actually making a podcast I have Goldwave as my audio editor, and an olympus digital recorder, though it's dying and could use a recommendation for a new one. I've got an external microphone, but no mixer. Dave. On 11/8/11, Ron Schamerhorn blindwon...@cogeco.ca wrote: Hi It's quite a decent idea.

Re: [Audyssey] require cheat codes and key bord commands for GMA tankcommander
If I'm understanding your message correctly, what a down right shame! I gather from what you said that you have never played the game before. You want someone to give you the keyboard commands to play the game when you already have them right at your fingertips through the documentation that came with the game. If you bought the game, you might as well start using the tools that come with it. I strongly urge you to do some of the work yourself by reading the user's guide and learning to play the game as you go along. Remember the keystrokes listed as you play through the first mission, which is the easiest. They get progressively harder in some ways, but you can succeed by using what you previously learn in the next mission. Secondly, you want the cheat codes before you even try? That's awful! You're taking the replay value right out of the game before you even try. What you want is to but a jigsaw puzzle, have someone put it together for you, or follow the instructions to construct it that someone gives you before opening the box, and claim success. I suggest having fun learning the game. Try to work through difficulties toward success you get a rewarding feeling of accomplishment from by beating the game using your own skill. Isn't that what gaming's all about? --- Be positive!

Re: [Audyssey] Swamp reflections.

I am still receiving and reading them all, so please don't misinterpret my quietness as a lack of interest in the community's thoughts. The game of course has bugs in its current form, but for the most part it is pretty stable. When I'm not accidentally pulling the Ethernet cord out of the server it is stable, I mean. Haha, sorry again to all of those who were affected by that yesterday. Because the game is fairly stable, I am taking this time to implement several changes before I upload the next game update. At various stages in development, a programmer will hit places where much time is needed to proceed but an outside viewer wouldn't notice any changes. Foundations need to be built, code needs to be optimized, and few of those things bring about fun new content in and of themselves. I am at one of those points in the code, so it is going to take a bit longer before the next update. I also plan to hot glue the cord into the back of my server, ROFL!

Re: [Audyssey] audyssey plus or extra
Well ron what name did you have in mind. I'd really like it to be a community project. For the purposes of actual work dropbox will be used. I'll see if there is just more than one person though. For now the cast will have to be somewhere like podbean or something, or podomatic or something, though if there are any other good podcast upload sites that are accessable then thats good if I know where I can put it. I really idealy would want to keep this free. Ofcause if it became any more than that, like a large user base, and the fact that it would have to be well rather full has me thinking. Another thing I could use is 000webhost to run the blog part of the site. though there are some annoyances I have issues with that place. Now, I could always make another wordpress blog linked to here and the forum and just update this, however I would have to somehow set email access to things. Another way is to pull storage for things. if dave meller or someone could give me a subdomain with wordpress on it and 2gb storage as initial then I could do it that way. Or I could do it on dropbox. The issue is it all gets pulled to the computer, so unless I had a couple accounts hmmm it would be a bit complex to maintain. Over that there is the fact I'd have to pay for storage. and web space. And this could be as much as 100-200 a year. At which point we run into a large ammount of problems. The first is cash and payments. I'd have to run on donations or have subscribers. This would mean I'd have to keep to a schedual, and then I'd need a large user base. Obviously I really don't want to do that. There is one posability, but its a bit cheaky. We could use audyssey.org for the cast. However I would feel guilty about not paying for the use, etc, etc. Then as we all know all the devs that burnout and such, well the same will happen here. So I really need more than one person to be interested. I would probably need at least 1000 or so to really make it worth going major postal with this. Otherwise it is likely to just be a public dropbox thingy or at least for the moment a share folder only cast. I have no dedicated system to set up for a server nore the space for one currently. I may eventually get an old clunker with win xp on it but then I'd have to seriously spend cash for something, and have a noisy thing in my room and still have no real space.

I myself have an external mic, I have skype, msn and a few things now, a crappy card in my box can probably record the games. I also have my soni handhold recorder. My major issue would be storage. Dropbox is the most likely for short term. Another is something like 000webhost but since the download is really hopeless resetting all the time for large files, I have second thoughts. I know where I can get a site for 60 us bucks a year, and a domain that costs 30 dollars a year. I have access to a few other places to, but some of those won't be regular. I guess I could use something like podbean or something but we will have to see. Firstly I need to know who is interested. This by no means will be all of my work. This is a chance for developers, and community members alike both on the list and the forums a like to talkk about things.

Re: [Audyssey] audyssey plus or extra
david, you may have solved my problem at least partually. if I could get a subdomain, ie audysseycast.yourname.com or something, or somehow be able to have you maintain a no-ip or something, then that would rock. On that note I wander if a sub domain could be created in audyssey.org and then we could link that to the cast. My rough plan is to have a wordpress blog. This makes it easy to maintain. My plan is to have a shared folder, a backup cast on podomatic just in case the old one dies and a dropbox shared folder. Then ofcause I'd need the ability to admin the wp side, ofcause if we had the site with wordpress we can use podpress. I have a gmail so I should have access to feadburner since thats where links should go. I think though that this cast will have to have some donation system or something at some point. David is it possable you could get more storage for the cast? Sorry if that sounds cheaky but its the simplest thing. The other idea is to pay for something like public ftp or dropbox or something. Dropbox public links though do eventually overload so that wouldn't solve it that much. There are shares but I don't want to fill my hard drive with shares really. There is sendspace but who in their right mind would use that as a perminant podcast thingy. Another thing we should get is a mirroring system. I have no idea how to get to or use the coral distrobution network or cdn but I know that its free I think and that places like the dectalk archive did use it. Another thing I could do would be to use one of the systems here as a server, but I'd have to buy more bandwidth, and then I'd have to limit upload speed to something stupid. And even if I did that holidays excluded I could only run it during the day. There are loads of options I just need to know where the list wants to go. Oh if someone wants to post it to the forums on audiogames if I don't get through there then that would rock. Thanks to my external plantronics headset things will work. However I can only record one device at once, so either voice or actual sound. I don't have the hardware myself to do all the things I could. If push comes to shove I have a single core I could try recording on, it however is only a single core with a small drive. its my grandpa's and he doesn't use the capacity, however its rather far from my location. And then ofcause I'd need some user input, I mean I won't be making all this myself all the time. Anyway I want this to be community driven so its up to you guys on what you want to do. I will try to previde resources where I can ofcause. At 07:09 p.m. 8/11/2011 -0500, you wrote: Hello, I am looking forward to issue 55. I'm also agreeing with the ideas presented, I know there's a lot of games that have docs that are nonexistent or hard to follow or games themselves that are very complex and reading docs on them you kind of walk away going, huh I don't get it. I hope that makes sense. I'd like to offer services and resources I have access to for the podcast. I do have a server and can utilize it for podcasting, but storage I really don't have that much, it's about 20 gb, that'll get eaten pretty fast even with 64k mp3/ogg files, anything higher than that and the problem will exaserbate. I've also got site design experience, if I can help in producing content, or updating anything, let me know. As far as actually making a podcast I have Goldwave as my audio editor, and an olympus digital recorder, though it's dying and could use a recommendation for a new one.

[Audyssey] more recordings to enjoy
So... here are two more recordings done by me. The first one is of a game called Arcana heart 3. It's a very typical Japanese game, that is to say it's a fighter with a bunch of squeally girls who all have some sort of super power or other, cool music and a fun gameplay system. Trick is... this game is has a cast of all female fighters, and they are all one example or another of Japanese stereotypes... the schoolgirls, priests, cross-dressing tomboys, and anything else that comes up in anime or any other form of Japanese media. It's a fun game and worth checking out, but those who have vision may get a kick out of watching some actual vids on youtube to get exactly what I mean with these descriptions... though keep in mind these are all passed on to me by word of mouth and reviews, since I don't have any vision myself. Enjoy. The gameplay, for those who are curious, is similar to that found in blazblue.. but there are a few unique things about it, the most important of which are the arcanas, which are... equips, if you will, kind of like an rpg that can enhance your cdharacter with some small atributes and provide you with their own special moves and supers in addition to the ones posessed by your character. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3394499/arcana%20heart%203%20as%20weis.mp3 Second is of space channel 5, which is perhaps the most accessible rhythm game as of yet... and you'll see why. Shame it was never continued. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3394499/space%20channel%205%20part%202%20hundred%20stage%20battle.mp3 --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
