Yes phil! we don't want any ill mannered yankies in our propper English
magic school thank you very much! ;D.
being serious now, my one slight issue with sarah as a quick exhibition game
is how easy it is to pick up and play without reading the manual or looking
at any commands.
If I can just tell someone "click on a planet to fly there" or "hit anything
nasty you here in the right speaker" that is fine, ---- but Sarah has many
keys, and many sounds for people to get to grips with at one time.
If I got someone who wanted a complex or heavily atmospheric game, ---- I
would indeed show them Sarah, --- but that's why it didn't occur to me when
I was just randomly off the top of my head thinking of games I could quickly
show off to passers by, ---- that's also why I didn't include mota in that
list either.
That was also in no way intended as an exhaustive list, ---- just some
random thoughts on what games I might show people.
Bare in mind, Site village is a very crowded affair with literally hundreds
of people moving through it. It'd almost be a markit type affair with me
sitting on a stall, --- and basically chatting to people as they passed,
intermitantly giving them quick goes on a game or two, ---- then
(hopefully), telling them to move along because someone else wanted a turn!
Btw, on the british voice acting front, ---- if your stil in the business of
adding to sarah, --- I've now got an R09 recorder some stage experience, and
would be glad to give you a voice or two myself, ---- just let me know who
you might need.
Beware thee grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
I am surprised you did not think of my Sarah game.
You could say it was inspired by the Harry Potter books and games.
True the voices are mainly Americans doing British accents, but then when
I asked for volunteers to do British voices only Americans got back to me.
Maybe you Brits don't like us Americans invading your school of magic!
I do use several UK synthesized voices though.
Phil
