If it were Thomas would probably have posted to the list and been jumping

Hi Thomas,
I noticed a file,
Player_Swing.wav
in the audio folder.
I don't think this is played in the current beta.
I do like it for a swing and miss sound.
I am not so happy about,
Use_Potion.wav
This sounds like she is pouring the potion out, not drinking it.
I am sure you can add a female
Hi Phil,
Yeah, I know how that is. However, I thought it would be good to supply
the list with the correct information so people didn't look for an extra
key that didn't exist.
Not all of the keys on level 1 are necessary to complete the level, but
most of them are. Since You'll probably want
Hi Mike,
No, it is not. At this point I've just really started adding all of the
extra levels in beta 10. That is going to take at least a month or so to do.

Actually, the file Player_Swing.wav is played when Angela swings off a

As for a miss sound, when she misses a punch/kick, I've already added

Hi Thomas,
I am working on a walk through for MOTA for myself but it may help other
people.
I won't post it if you don't want me to.
I think getting all 5 keys is important as there may be weapons in the
locked rooms.
The reason I got confused is that you moved the keys around and I was
Hi Thomas,
I had to try the swing sound jumping from the rope, and yes it does play but
with the loud rope sound I never heard the swish.
And I thought you were sneaking in a sound from beta 10 to tempt us!

Hi Thomas,
Many people have problems in mazes.
Some people do not know their left hand from their right as no one taught
them when they were young.
They just see something and grab it with the nearest hand to it, not
thinking it is on the left or right of them.
Or when they are looking at you
Hello.
While it might be true that many people may not have been taught all the
necessary navigational skills or find it more difficult, it shouldn't
be a reason not to make a game 3d. In my experience struggling is a good
teacher, though I also know that many people want everything handed to
Hi Phil,
Yeah, a lot of classic Atari and Nintendo games usually had a colored
key that matched a colored door. Certainly Montezuma's Revenge was that
way. You had white keys for white doors, blue keys for blue doors, and
red keys for red doors. However, as I've decided to stick to a more
Hi Phil,
Ah, I see. No, I didn't add the miss sound until beta 10.

Hi Hayden,
Well, technically the game is not officially complete until 1.0 is
released. So beta 10 won't necessarily be the full game, but it may be
near complete.
Generally, a software product goes through various release stages. First
you have the Alphas. An Alpha is essentially fresh code,

Is there anything specifically about FPS games like Shades of Doom that
confuses you. Any specific reason why you get lost, and anything I can
do as a developer to make it easier for gamers like you to get full
enjoyment out of the game?
I will say this about Shades of Doom though.
Hi Phil,
Yeah, I do know when I was learning Shades of Doom saving the level as a
braille map and printing it out did help me a lot in getting a view of
the level. Unfortunately, braille printers are expensive and very fiew
blind people I know have one. So that is one reason I never added a
Just a thought: Notice that the top 5 threads deal with the same game?
It's going to be big when it comes out, and I'll bet the list is busy with
it.

Here again, I'll bet that most of the messages dealt with MOTA. Another
indication of a soon to be released game of awesomeness, if that is a word?

This is much how I think as well. Though I also had perfect vision or the
first 8 years and remember things clearly. I actually think in visually
terms still and can read maps pretty easily.

Hi Thomas,
The only way I was able to get those timed situations working well was to
have a verbal countdown.
I did this in the DOS Pack man in which the ghosts voiced the distance to
you either in a normal voice which was ahead of you or in a deep voice which
was ghosts behind you.
Or in
So in other words, Beta 10 will just be level 1?

Hi Hayden,
Well,
Wouldn't pitch or volume also work? Say have the volume increase as the
gap gets smaller. This could make judging the dash through the trapdoor
harder, but it would be more realistic as well.

Hello,
For those closing doors, you can have a grinding sound which gets louder
as the door gets closer to closing, or you can have the pitch of the
sound decrease as the door gets closer to being closed. The only thing
is, you would need to place the sounds in the training area so the
When I was in school learning geometry, the braille diagrams used dashes
rather than complete lines to symbolize lines which were hidden from
view. Something like that could be used to show rooms which are under
other rooms in a level.

Hi Willem,
The problem with pitch or volume is they are continuous and unless you
practice a lot you would not know what pitch or volume equaled the point the
trap door would be too narrow for you to slip through.
One way would be to have the trap door make clank sounds such as made by
spokes
As an exploration fan I enjoy mazes, sinse they give me a wide variety of
different rooms to explore, always with the possibility of meeting something
new, and actuallly Tom i was hoping for a maze or two in the tomb hunter

In shades as I said, the navigation features I found
I'm not sure on the unexplored space navigator, sinse discovering ropes

Maybe it could tell you roughly where the nearest unexplored area was,
and leave getting there up to you, Eg, east 30 meters, or down 10 if it
I'm with you there dark, I won't mind the odd maze here and there. Even
accidentally getting my head chopped off by a door isn't a problem lol.
Though mindless difficulty isn't fun either, but that's where
