Hi Dark,
Well, I think the real issue here is balance. That is to say a balance
between challenge and simplicity. Obviously, jumping over laser bolts
etc is unrealistic from a mathematical and physics point of view, but
it is an instance where the developer chose balance over realistic
physics in
Hello Tyler,
Your question is a bit confusing. All tabletop Dungeons and Dragons
games are by their very nature accessible for a blind person. All you
need is an electronic copy of the rule books and player's guides, some
braille dice, and a group of friends to play with. Other than
obtaining acce

No, not necessarily. Java accessibility depends on a number of things.

reader supports the Java access bridge, and the version of the Java

Hello Steven,
These days all of my audio games including Mysteries of the Ancients,

Dear Developers of audiogames,
What programming languages (excluding BGT, since that is merely a
wrap-around of C++), do you normally use when developing your audiogames?

Dear Developers of Audiogames,
I have a question and I'm quite sure that you developers would be competent
enough to answer it.
Would updating your Java version increase the accessibility of your online
game, or, is that not necessarily the case?
Thank you for your input.

Hi Tom.
I certainly think your correct with incrimental movement speed which
increases gradually to a maximum, this is certainly the way most classic
games worked, however I would not confuse these sorts of things with
realistic physics sinse the physics in most classic games is anything but,
Hi Tom.
I certainly think looking for tutorials is a good idea, I just wondered if
for necessary formulae chatting to developers of graphical games of a
similar style to the classic ones your trying to make in audio might be
helpful if there isn't a resource that gives precise answers to those
Hi Jeremy,
Although I've never played risk, so I'm not to sure how that game works, one
turn based strategy audio game I really enjoy is tactical battle, it's a
very enjoyable game and its free to play to.
The nice thing with this game is that you can just play the game as it is

Yesterday, Alter Aeon upgraded servers and changed server location.
The new server is much faster and people are reporting a lot less lag
than with the old one. If you're having problems connecting, you may

Hi Dark,
To be honest I think it has to do less with the audio representation

astute enough to use true vector mathematics and physics which is

Hi Nicol,
Shrug. Well, I honestly don't know what to tell you. I never tested

Hi Jeremy,
Adding more keys would only further complicate things. The idea here
is to follow the KISS principle, keep it simple stupid, and therefore
the mechanics would have to emulate mainstream game mechanics as much
as possible. Now that I am aware of the fact classic Atari, NES, and
SNES cont
That was exactly what I was looking for, and I'd be glad to beta test. This sounds
like quite a nice distraction from life to play for a while.

Hi Dark,
Sure. Although, I think I would prefer having some sort of tutorial or
guide explaining the implementation of analog movement from a
programmer's perspective than just talking to mainstream programmers
from retro remakes etc. However, that I am aware of how the old NES

Hi Ian,
Nope, I haven't played it, was just curious because I spent many happy
hours as a kid bashing away at Snes titles and only marginally less
hours bashing away at Snes9x a couple of years ago. Sounds like you're
well on the way toward an awesome hack there man! Excited to take it

Oh, wow, that sounds interesting. I like arcade games and I have an interest in
