Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo,

Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo, I agree with this last post; even in the demo itself; it described what the funding would be used for. And nobody seems to have played it long enough to point out the positives. Environments and elements were very interactive; there were no other

Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo, To add to this, Sryth is a game that can be easily played by sighted folks. Let's get real here, an audio only game is a novelty for a sighted person they might spend a few minutes taking a crack at, probably not much more than that.

Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo,

Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo, Actually it's for Windows too, but yes, the amount of audio gamers is already tiny, and then you combine that with the unemployment rate, average age of the community, and Covid financial restrictions and it was never gonna happen.So Sryth r

Re: A frighteningly good audio game demo, 9 thousand isn't much, but when you consider most of the doner base are unemployed persons living off government benefits then it becomes larger and larger. Doing some rough math, they'd need about 900 to 1800 people to donate, and fro
