[Audyssey] Updates for Sarah, was Future USA Games product designs.

2007-01-19 Thread Phil Vlasak
Hi Charles,
Yes if Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, shows a gymnasium, gift shop or 
museum of Magic on the sixth floor, I would scrap the House Elf sleeping 
quarters, or more likely put it near the kitchen.
With the GMA game engine I can make patches to current versions or put up 
new versions as long as the version number starts with 1 without forcing 
people to get new registration keys.
That would make David Greenwood's life easier as he is Keeper of the Keys.
So I could update the game and call it version 1.1 with no one having to get 
new keys, but if I decide the update will be substantially different or take 
over a year I could call it version 2.0 and then require people to buy new 
keys.
If Jo Rowling loves my game so much she gets Electronic Arts to work with me 
to produce a blind friendly version of Sarah but with all their authentic 
sound effects and graphics, or if she wants the game to be ported to the Wii 
game machine which  would require you to learn real wand movements, then I 
should be able to charge a small update fee.
smiles, just dreaming about JK Rowling learning about my game and liking it.
Phil

 Is the potential for making patches or new editions of the game that will
 keep up with changing technology an option?  In that way, those who want 
 to
 make the change and have a game that can do more, or is up-to-date can do
 so, and those who don't have current technology on their computers can 
 have
 a game that will work with what they have.  After book 7 comes out, an
 addition to the game could be produced that would include stuff from book 
 7.
 Freedom Scientific does this with JAWS.  If you currently use JAWS 5.0, 
 and
 it works fine, you don't have to upgrade to JAWS 8.  If you want to, you 
 can
 do so.  As far as the cost to the consumer, that's up to the developer.
