Re: [Audyssey] looking for another game please.

2015-10-22 Thread Shaun Everiss

I must say I do want to see what things were like before.
Its why I go for old soundcard soundfonts crappy that they may be for 
general use.
I mean gameboy soundfont, crap for almost everything else but what if I 
want to play a old game soundtrack and remember it.
Or if I get something what about getting something like a snes or nes 
font or old synth not suited for music and play it for something not 
supposed to do that.
hvsc does c64 and thats one synth I enjoy playing, the older stuff some 
of it is so good it stays.

Game wise well who knows.
Last night I watched an old video of a mainframe starting up, computers 
starting are nothing to what it was back then and I liked the nostelga.

Either that, or they once played the game, no longer have it and want to

I think that was in 2012 or so, but as I said they were long sinse dead
before that, indeed to be honest I always wonder why there's so much
discussion of bavisoft. The games are available for whoever wants to play
them, and as I said they're probably worth at least one run for amusement
value, however once you've played them there's not a lot else to say.

Even as far as the audio adventures genre goes much bigger and better things
have been done sinse and will likely continue to be done in the future.

When the audiogames archive is finished, we will host the demo versions of 
bsc's titles.
Also - before anybody comments on the legality yes, we can do that (barring 
communication with an update), as per the license agreement when you install 
the games.

Hi Dark,

Actually, I believe the ICANN shut the Bavisoft site down last year
not 2012. In any case it makes little difference because as you say
they were long since not a going concern by then. They wouldn't answer
their e-mails, couldn't be contacted by phone, and were notoriously
bad about not shipping orders for their games. So regardless of when
they were shutdown they were pretty much done anyway.

Cheers!

Hi John.

Bavisoft vanished  off the map long before their site shut down, indeed 
the
last I remember anyone hearing from them was in August of 2009, and that 
was

only a "please don't copy our games", nothing about the game compatibility
problems with newer windows, their future plans or most worrying of all
their lost orders, or why the hell they were persisting in trying to sell
games on cd that could be easily downloaded, indeed as far as I know 
nobody
recieved a new cd of a Bavisoft title sinse after 2008, and even before 
then

several orders went missing.

To set the hole matter to rest I tried to even phone Bavisoft myself after 
I

got hold of the founder's actual new york number through some creative use
of Google, and got what I believe is the American out of order sygnal, 
which

seems pretty conclusive proof.

Bottom line, Bavisoft seem to have dropped off the map as far as I'm
concerned, and they did so long before their website went bye bye.

Beware the grue!

Dark.

ICANN, the internet corporation for assigned names and numbers, is basically 
the organization that manages domain (website) names, and keeps track of who 
has what website. They also require a certain degree of accountability from 
anybody who has a website - requiring a valid address, phone and email 
before you can set up a website - and its the term "valid" that got Bavisoft 
shut down.

Hi Jody,

Unfortunately, that is true. There is a lot of things the developer of
Bavisoft could have and probably should have done, but he strikes me
as not really giving a care. He wrote Chillingham and Grizzly Gulch
and after that pretty much let things go without too much in the way
of technical support, follow ups, and insuring people can legally
obtain his products once Bavisoft closed its doors for good. Its sad,
but in my opinion the games weren't that good to begin with so aren't
that much of a loss to the community in my opinion.

Cheers!

Oh sure they vanished long before - but I was talking about when folks 
started officially declaring them gone, which was when (forum user whose 
name I can't recall) got them kicked off the net.

Hi John.

Bavisoft vanished  off the map long before their site shut down, indeed the
last I remember anyone hearing from them was in August of 2009, and that was
only a "please don't copy our games", nothing about the game compatibility
problems with newer windows, their future plans or most worrying of all
their lost orders, or why the hell they were persisting in trying to sell
games on cd that could be easily downloaded, indeed as far as I know nobody
recieved a new cd of a Bavisoft title sinse after 2008, and even before then
several orders went missing.

To set the hole matter to rest I tried to even phone Bavisoft myself after I
got hold of the founder's actual new york number through some creative use
of Google, and got what I believe is the American out of order sygnal, which
seems pretty conclusive proof.

Bottom line, Bavisoft seem to have dropped off the map as far as I'm
concerned, and they did so long before their website went bye bye.

Beware the grue!

Dark.

Hi Jody,

Unfortunately, that is true. There is a lot of things the developer of
Bavisoft could have and probably should have done, but he strikes me
as not really giving a care. He wrote Chillingham and Grizzly Gulch
and after that pretty much let things go without too much in the way
of technical support, follow ups, and insuring people can legally
obtain his products once Bavisoft closed its doors for good. Its sad,
but in my opinion the games weren't that good to begin with so aren't
that much of a loss to the community in my opinion.

Cheers!

It's interesting that audio adventures (as I've called the genre on

better examples like the inquisitor games and codename signus, not to
mention graille to the thief which is about the same difficulty as the
bavisoft games, but just costs 5 usd, and is hopefully just an intro for
similar games later on.

Hi Tom.

While I agree, to an extent that is true of any adventure game 
unfortunately, it certainly is true of Graille to the thief which is a much 
more recent release.
There are of course some games like INquisitor that have extra little side 
turning or things to discover on a second run, plus are much longer, but in 
general this is a limitation of the adventure puzzle style games as a genre, 
very different from say action games or tactical or exploration based games.


In a game like Graille to the thief, which is just five usd worth of random 
fun, it's not so bad, however  saying what was originally charged for the 
bavisoft games it's not a good state of affairs.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi Simon,

I take it by your comments that you have never played any of the
Bavisoft games completely through. It is for that reason I think your
opinion might be a bit premature. Weather the games are good or bad or
not is of course highly subjective, but the thing that really turned
me off those games is once you solve all the puzzles there is no
longer any replay value in the games. The second time you play the
game will be nearly the same as the first time you play the game. Thus
I found them boring and uninteresting the second time through since
there isn't a lot of change from game to game.

Cheers!

Hi.

I'd say the bavisoft games are worth a play certainly, my problem is that I 
finished both on the day I got them. Grizly gulch has a llittle replay value 
if you put the speed up sinse then you've got essentially a bunch of casino 
games and an arcade shooter, but the same is sadly not true of chillingham, 
indeed to say Chillingham was supposed to be a more serious, more plot 
driven game I was quite disappointed by the fact  that the plot actually 
goes no where and you learn nothing in the end.


Certainly worth a play as I said, but don't hold out too much hopes on 
thirty hours of gameplay or endless replay value.


All the best,

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] looking for another game please.

2015-10-21 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Simon,

I take it by your comments that you have never played any of the
Bavisoft games completely through. It is for that reason I think your
opinion might be a bit premature. Weather the games are good or bad or
not is of course highly subjective, but the thing that really turned
me off those games is once you solve all the puzzles there is no
longer any replay value in the games. The second time you play the
game will be nearly the same as the first time you play the game. Thus
I found them boring and uninteresting the second time through since
there isn't a lot of change from game to game.

Cheers!

To be honest I remember when this thing came about.
In the audiogames forum the games can be shared though to be honest 
every effort was made to contact bavisoft on and off forum several times 
its not like no one tried.

Hi Jody,

Unfortunately, that is true. There is a lot of things the developer of
Bavisoft could have and probably should have done, but he strikes me
as not really giving a care. He wrote Chillingham and Grizzly Gulch
and after that pretty much let things go without too much in the way
of technical support, follow ups, and insuring people can legally
obtain his products once Bavisoft closed its doors for good. Its sad,
but in my opinion the games weren't that good to begin with so aren't
that much of a loss to the community in my opinion.

Cheers!

exactly! and because of that, I have had to ask around for this game, and on 
a couple of other lists, have been given a major! hard time over this copy 
right issue, a situation I wouldn't have been put in, if the developer had 
taken steps to make the games still available, rather than just disappearing 
completely.
