Hi Muhammed,
Producing audiogames is NOT always free. Developers need to pay for web
hosting, sound effects, voice actors, background music, and depending on the
game: a VPS, dedicated server or sound library. If someone puts lots of
time and energy into something, they should get pay for it. If
Hi,
Exactly. There is always some misconception that writing these games
is free or doesn't cost anything to produce. Nothing could be further
from the truth. They usually cost a lot to produce when you add up
money spend on professional sound effects, music, voice acting, web
space to say the
Hi Dark,
Sure. However, with a game like Entombed you really do need Sapi
support for the simple fact of speaking character names and things
like that there is no way you can prerecord those unless you basically
come up with a name list to select from. That might be ok, but lacks a
greater degree

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I got a lot of really good info from this survey so far. I
wasn't aware that so many people actually liked direct Sapi support.
Although, I can understand the reasons people gave when they answered
the question which all comes down to user preferences and the ability
to change

Hi Muhammed,
That definitely wasn't the purpose of the survey. The reason we asked
you your age is to find out the average age of our target market, and
what types of games apeal to that age group.
As far as game ratings goes I always try to create games with a family
friendly E-Rating. That way
Hi Muhammed,
That's not really the point. If your Sapi support gets broken that's
not the developer's problem, or the fault of the game. It is your
computer, and you need to fix it.
Cheers!

Hi Thomas,
I totally agree with you. However if a child happens to play your game as
sad as it is, it's not your responsibility. It's the responsibility of the
parent who's allowing that to happen by not being vigilant enough.
Not that I'm into those sorts of games not even remotely as you've

Hi Thomas,
Yes I see your point. However I would still say that it's up to the parents
to make themselves aware of what is and what isn't child friendly material.
Ratings are there for a reason which is very true, if the parent knows that
the child is going to be interested in computer games
well sapi is smaller and to get the game faster hmmm.
On the other hand sapi can break and you can't always interupt it in some cases.
The other thing is that I have good voices on here some will not.
However at the same time sapi breaking is a pain.
Once I had sapi do that after a failed voice
