Re: I think audiogames.net should take the place of klango in case it dies
Mmmm jjgeek
no, neither rs games client nor quentin c playroom are anything like Klango really.
Klango as originally conceived was a development environment for audio programs. Two games were written with it, pirate memory game and haunted factory. After this in 2008 however the developers promised a major change, and that turned out to be the Klango network, a massive program with many different features.
As originally conceived it was going to have loads of functions and even allow other people to contribute their own programs, games etc, and Sunny window was intended to be a major application change with lots of functions.
Unfortunately though it seemed so many ideas they had for Klango just taled off. The media catalogue got abandoned, there were no updates to their software database and since mole no more no new games or other programs and such, indeed over the last few updates (what updates there were), it seemed the developers just added more and more community type features, voice forums, mini blogs, those audio avatar things etc, and then of course the developers sort of vanished entirely in around 2011 or so, and while someone is maintaining the costs for the server to keep Klango running I don't know if any work is being done on developing it any further.
Rs games client however is just purely and simply for playing games, it does nothing else, has no forums, no podcatching, and all the updates have been new games. It began with rs monopoly, back in I believe 2010, and then more and more games have been added over the years, plus now we have a similar community in Quentin c playroom with different games.
As to the downloadable program, well since that has sounds and such and doesn't require you to muck about online with a brouser but just works like any other audio game with standard menues and what not, it's certainly recommended.
