[Audyssey] Testers needed for Hearts Online game
Hi all, I've been developing an online accessible hearts game over the past few months, and it is now at a stage where I would like to open it up for more testing. If you are into card games at all, you will really like this one. It has a unique user interface, and since it connects through a dedicated server, connecting to a game is a breeze. If you aren't familiar with the game of hearts, it has remained one of the top card games in the world for decades due to its addictive nature. It is very easy to learn, not so easy to master. The online version is completely playable as is, but I haven't added much in the way of sound effects and the like. I would like to add perhaps 6 or 8 testers to the beta team, so there will be more games available online for players to connect to. As it stands, there is no artificial intelligence in the game, so 4 players are required to be online to play. The game requires .net framework 2.0 and of course an internet connection. If you have any general questions about the game, feel free to post them here on list. If you want to be a tester, send me a message off list to my email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I will be adding the new testers over the next few days.

Hello, This sounds interesting. It has been years since I played hearts. Are you going to have it so you are playing partners or is it going to be everyone verses everyone?

Re: [Audyssey] Testers needed for Hearts Online game
Hi che. Just a couple of questions. While I fully understand the game is in beta now, and so far from the final version, will you be thinking of adding sound effects or computer opponents in future? Second, just checking, but I assume the game runs with Sapi? Lastly, I do remember hereing you say something about offering a game with a subscription. While I'm not against the idea of subscription games, I would be interested to know how much you were considdering charging? I ask because I've actually just finished demoing and writing up game entries for the All in play games on audiogames.net. I found myself very much enjoying Texus holdem, and considdering subscribing. The only reason i haven't is the price. while I'd have been quite prepared (and could afford), three dollars (around two pounds at the moment), a month for a game I like, as I'm fairly indifferent to crazy eights and the Anagram game, which also come with the eight dollars package, I wasn't prepared to pay $8 (almost five pounds at current exchange rates), a month for one game I liked, one game (five card draw poker), I could probably enjoy on occasions, and two games i was moderately indifferent to. Obviously sinse your only producing the one game this doesn't apply, but I would be interested to know your plans, particularly if you were thinking about other subscription based card games. Btw, this isn't a complaint against All in play, my financial situation is probably not average, sinse I am living on my own, therefore paying all bills, pluss attempting to pay part time Phd fees, on Uk disability and incapacity bennifits. I'm only lucky that none of my hobbies are particularly expensive, lol! Beware the Grue!
