all right and will make a speedy recovery. I will be keeping my fingers
crossed.

Hi Tom.
I hope your grandma is alright, though if not then fair enough regarding
mota.
The reason i mentioned being a litle worried about mota beta 21 being taken
down is I do remember you took down a previous version (20 I think), because
it had various bugs, but obviously sinse I can't
Hi Tom.
I agree on the online game, but i don't think it's so illogical that people
won't pay for a game offline that uses text.
A stand alone text game promises no upgrades to the game, and no interaction
with other players. Much as I dislike it myself, pvp and co op play are very
popular
To be honest sean, I'm afraid I really don't see your problem with using
virtual focus.
it really doesn't make too much diffeerence imho slipping into vf and
reading the last sent text (usually ctrl up arrow is enough),and having the
text read to you.
The only time I've found it necessary
Hi Tom.
I agree completely as far as games and cloning go, indeed if you look at the
games that changed history, it is the fact that they are not ! clones of
otthers and involved original ideas that makes them special.
for instance, on the surface the original Mega man is pretty similar to
Hi.
I'm curious, what would you do if you started using sapi for output when
it came to mac and linux? Would you use speech dispatcher or what ever
they call the sapi-like system they have on those platforms? Also I had
a bit of a brainstorm. I know ESpeak is pretty much considered dreadful,
Hi,
just an idea that I thought of with castaways,
at the moment we can only select a fixed number of faults, starters and
purks.
so, my idea is still leave the minimum numbers of faults, starters and
purks,
but give the option of selecting more of any of them if you want.
I think it could

Well, allowing for additional faults would take a bit of recoding so I wouldn't
be getting to it anytime really soon anyways. I've got my hands currently full
with several big coding tasks in the game, haha. If you wanted those specific

Hi Thomas,
while I haven't played the original Montezuma's Revenge, I had no problems
with your version in that field.
But there is something I still am wondering about audio games in general,
and it is here meanth as a question of game ideas and/or genre, not the
programming side.
Even I
Hi Thomas,
regarding the music for the intro, I'd like to say that I am a fan of such
pieces of music and I had expected to find it somewhere in the game itself.
About the cutscenes, many games do have them in some form to tell a story
instead of saying for example level complete or something .
I got to visit this area and it is totally awesome! Glo did a good job
on it.

Hi,
Just a quick question. For your boxing game, will you consider adding Sapi or
human recorded speech? Its not really an issue for me, but I thought you might
want to ponder this idea.

No offense, but I think a little common sense is valuable here. There is o

Hi,
I think I'll give that a try next time.
Try this one on for size.
I am trying to see how few people I can get by with and complete the game.
My previous record was 14 on normal difficulty.
My current game is:
Starter is strong start.
First perk is union smasher.
second perk is green
Heya,
Sapi is an easy enough thing to integrate. In fact it's already in Block
Party. Just unload your screen reader, and you're good to go. As for
recorded speech, it's on the table. I already have one voice over guy
willing to work with me. We'll see as that stage approaches, though.

Hey guys; I know some of you use NVDA instead of jaws, so I was wondering, how
do NVDA users handle parts of the screen that requires the jaws cursor? For
example, often when installing something, you're asked a question, if you
didn't hear the question, you have to use jaws cursor to read
Hi.
In order to get tomes, we need a monestary and, before that, we need a tannery.
Where does the leather come from for the tannery?
I assume we need a butcher to process animals into furs?
I did this last game but never got any leather.
Do I just need more butchers and leather workers?
Or,
Hi phil,
Sure, its not a problem. As I said the mechanics of beta 17 and
earlier was totally different, and when I added the analog jumping
support in beta 18 and later I didn't really think about
pan/reposition the sounds as you were jumping in the air. So its not a
huge update to add that
I know it's not my place to enforce these rules, but I'd advise you be a
little careful talkingabout these things. If you were talking about how NVDA
handles games, then that would probably be acceptable to the moderators, but
I think this would probably a little too much off topic, as it says
Hi Michael,
As I said previously the little game intro music was a very short
track recorded for that cutscene specifically. It wouldn't really fit
anywhere else in my opinion so didn't put it in the list of music
tracks that get played during game play.
As for cutscenes ingeneral I am well
Hi Valiant,
Well, assuming we do decide to use Sapi on Windows I'd obviously have
to modify the engine to use whatever TTS API was available for Mac OS
and Linux. Linux has the Speec-Dispatcher API which is similar to Sapi
in a sense. Mac OS has its own Speech API, I forget what its called,
but
Hi,
Well, for what its worth I'm trying not to overly complicate the traps
etc in MOTA as there are enough new concepts here for most VI gamers.
Although, I certainly might put traps closer together on higher game
levels, make hem more difficult to jump safely, etc once I feel sure
people have

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I'm glad you see my point. its one thing to borrow an existing
game universe Star Wars, Star Trek, Megaman, Castlevania, etc and
quite another matter to create your own universe from scratch. You can
design it completely the way you want to, create characters you enjoy,

Your peasants should stock the tannery with furs. Then you will need leather
workers to convert the furs into leather. It takes 1 fur to create 1 leather.
Hi.

from for the tannery?
One other comment I forgot this morning. Animal farms do not appear to
produce sufficient product to be worth building. If you could get the
fur/leather from the animal as well, it might be worthwhile as an
alternative to hunting, but the rate is too slow to miss if you don't build
one, and the
Hi Michael,
Sure I completely agree with you. The VI gaming community could use a
much broader spectrum of games, and its definitely a good subject to
talk about.
As to your question why developers aren't creating games like those
you mentioned I can only guess. I suppose it boils down to a
Hi Dark,
Well, that's an attitude or opinion I just don't get myself. Why would
a text based game not promise any upgrades. Obviously, if the
developer is selling this as a product it only makes sense if he or
she upgrade the game from time to time with new content. Especially,
if there are
