Hi Dark,
I thought a British based game would be of some interest in the UK.
For easy demonstrations of the Sarah game, you could,
1, go through the sounds in the game list.
2. go through the spells list and cast one, such as Accio that will get you
a broom at the front door.
3. Apparate to the great hall where Peves can steel your stuff!
All quick and somewhat exciting things to do quickly.
smiles,
Phil

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.
