Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Poll Results.
Hi Dark. Oh yes I absolutely agree with you in principal that technology could do a lot more for us in terms of navigation devices, I use a bat k sonar device on my cane myself and have found it to be very handy for determining things like the size and relative position of objects near me when I am walking around. I think more research and development needs to be done with these devices. Unfortunately I can tell you from direct experience that while some of us will undoubtedly benefit from these devices I have personally worked with many who get lost in a closet. This is getting a bit off-topic for gaming, so to bring it back on-topic somewhat, I will say that indeed games like SOD are excellent tools for helping some people develop orientation skills.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Poll Results.
Hi tom. My own spacial awareness and orientation is pretty awful, (possibly even for medical reasons involved with some complications when I was born), and I am pretty terrible at direction facing or rotational tasks (one reason why I find grid based games in audio like gma mine sweeper and the solitare varients almost impossible to play), but I stil very much enjoy the gma games. shades of doom was my first audio game, and I found the navigation in that to be great, ditto with everything else gma engine wise, including Sarah. monkey business though I find much more difficult, with much more patience needed, and technoshock I find to be down right frustrating (though i don't think I'm alone in this respect). I think navigational keystrokes such as direction facing, object location, environment scanning, distance to object or enemy, examine size or type of area, and of course enemy targiting are much more an essential feature of audio 3D than other audio game genres, but if they are included in a game some great games can be made, so i hope you will considder including them in the genesis engine and the second tomb hunter game. As I said, it was playing shades that really got me interested in audio games in the first place, and being an exploration nut, those sorts of games very much appeal to me, and i would like to see more of them (though as I said before, I also think we need more audio side scrollers as well).

Out of 52 total votes cast 34 of you said it should remain a side-scroller and 18 said it should be turned into a fps.

Hello gamers, I would first like to thank everyone for casting their votes yesterday. Here is the results of the Mysteries Of The Aztecs poll we ran yesterday. The question was should Mysteries Of The Aztecs remain a side-scroller or be converted to a first person style game. Out of 52 total votes cast 34 of you said it should remain a side-scroller and 18 said it should be turned into a fps. The side-scroller style carried 65% of the vote leaving 35% of the voters picking FPS.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Poll Results.
Actually Andy, superliam isn't the only one, though is by far the largest. there is also tarzan jr, audio mario and the levels in Pipe2, but I fully agree, the audio side scrolling genre has not been half well explored yet.
