Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone It is time I post in here; to be honest I've been putting it off for far too long and much has happened. While I expect very little to be done with what I am about to say I would certainly love to give it a shot for the sake of someone I feel deserves it.The blind community is a small one, one that has had things handed to them for what seems like ever. Victory is no exception, and I believe this incident proves that statement. The whining, the complaining, the never having enough and wanting it all on a silver platter over and over again is part of the monotony, and it shouldn't be. There is a lack of appreciation for great things, and there shouldn't be. The vicious cycle that has plagued hard working developers who have done their absolute best with different amounts of success exists and eventually takes its tole, continues to exist, and it shouldn't be.With swamp, we have a game that does completely t he opposite, because Swamp does not ever assure you on any success or victory, nor does it hold your hand to get it done. It does not hold any certainty of any kind, no real sure fire plan that will always ensure that you stay alive. It took me a long time to understand this concept, because while I came from a mainstream sighted community of MK players I knew how to be the best and minimize losses, and there had never been a game in this community that I remembered that used such an idea as fuel. I believe Aprone created something I could not beat, nor can he, nor can anyone else, and that is the point, and that lack of victory has been the greatest kind of fun for us all, because it is something we can all relate to in life.To those of us who have been tarred and feathered by the bad brush of other people's actions because we are a part of this community, be it by choice or otherwise, we move on from here because that's all we can do. We pick ourselves up, dust off, hold our heads high, and then we go on to face whatever we have to with the most we can muster. We live in humility, accepting that there are times in our lives when we know we could use help and might not get it, and we keep going regardless. We see the imbeciles who undo any and every bit of success that heads our way, scratch our heads, bow them in shame, raise them up in anger, and if we can, if we feel up to it, use that same anger to do even greater things. We continue to show our appreciation as best we can, fearing that some day it may not be enough and understanding why, and at the end of it all there is no certainty save that of moving on and surviving, because that is what we've raised ourselves to do.And you on the otherside? You who are content with the ability to weasel things out of other people? Congratulations! I am very happy for you, glad that you were able to obtain the heart t hat I didn't have, the heart that asks and expects and believes it deserves because you are who you are. congratulations on having the audacity to play the helpless card and obtaining something I might have wanted and didn't have the nerve to ask for, like a small suppresser or a machete, or 159 cans of fuel to make sure I could stand around in the truck and have a good ol time while others went and collected crates so I could gain xp and reputation.

I didn't have the heart to leech off of other people's abilities, instead opting to solo most of the missions that got me that measely 22 levels I have now and managed to acquire over the past couple of weeks. 22?

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone Hi.Remember if Aprone choose to put those names up on the forum, that might not make any difference. The accounts in Swamp are anonymous, and if people haven't told others who they really are, we then only have a list of anonymous account names. But I totally agree that it would be nice to know who have done that. there might be a chance that someone know one of those guys, and is able to gaine information about who the rest of them are. It seems as a group of trouble makers who're working together. Only one person can't make all that trouble. I think it's a group of friends who simply don't have other things to do. the weird thing is that I have never seen any other places in the blind community where so many trouble makers have tried to destroy the project for so many people. So because of that, it might be a group of people who first began to be active in the blind community after Swamp got pobular. Well, just a random guess.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Keyboard Learning Software for Non-Visual Users
Re: Keyboard Learning Software for Non-Visual Users @Dark - So I wanted to give you an honest comparison, but I couldn't play either Galaxy Ranger or Fast2 Type.It seems the Galaxy Ranger FTP server is overloaded, and the link for Fast2 Type gives a French 404 page. I noticed that Galaxy Ranger was just a trial, so I went to their website to see how much the full version costs, but there was no way to purchase it. The language is a little unclear, but it seems to say that it will be available to purchase in October, although I'm not sure what year. I did, however, find a different download link on their website for the trial, and managed to install it.Unfortunately, I still wasn't able to actually play Galaxy Ranger. It told me that I had to run the configuration program, which ran fine (although it had no speech?), but even after that, the game wouldn't play. I selected "Game with Computer", and all of the difficulty modes tell me I need to put the program into "demo" mode. I f ound the option for that, but selecting it just says that demo mode was NOT activated, and the "Game with Computer" still won't play.I really wanted to make a case for TalkieType by comparing it to the programs you mentioned, but they've made it impossible for me. So all I can really say is that, compared to these two apps, TalkieType will actually be usable.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149175#p149175 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone well aprone. honestly i'm not suprised that this has happened. not that i knew what was going on, nor did i participate in any of it, but people will be people. and that is the bottom line. beyond anything, whether we are sighted, blind, deaf, or plane old normal, people will be people. and that tends to mean using other people to get what they want. you were a prime example of this. people used a real bug of items in your inventory disappearing as an excuse to prod you for new equipment. so they just pushed and pushed until it has escalated to the point where people where just using that excuse to get new equipment. i am sad to see this happening. i haven't really played swamp a whole lot recently because i'm back in school, but you have done this community a great survice and we owe you for that. while we can't tell you what to do, i do hope you are able to move passed this and continue the dev elopment of the testing client and swamp tide. as i just said we owe you a debt we could never pay back, but i do hope we can start by not sending fake reports for equipment and stop trying to cheat. its just a game and at the end of the day it doesn't really matter whether or not that you leveled 5 times and increased your killing streak to 50,000.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149170#p149170 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone I second what has been said here. I was left shocked into silence when I read your post, Aprone, and I'm still not sure what to say. You already know that you are one of the best audio game developers anyone has ever seen, if not the very best, and you know how much all of us love and appreciate your hard work, dedication, patience, and sense of community spirit.That said, I agree that, if you decided to take everything offline tomorrow, none of us would blame you in the slightest. We would be saddened by the loss of such an extraordinary, revolutionary game, and we would be furious at the who caused you to have to take that step, but we would not blame you at all. Indeed, I think most of us would have pulled the plug long ago, and your continued efforts despite everything are nothing short of incredible.Yes, a private testing team seems like the best option. The only difficulty in implementing such a policy is v olume testing, but I suppose you can work out the major bugs with a small team, then open things up to the public in a secondary round of beta testing.If you do decide to shut things down, I hope that Swamp would still be left available for download so people could play offline maps and scripts. It seems like the server-based part of gaming is where you run into trouble, so just drop that from the menu, compile, upload, and never answer another Swamp question again. Leave Swamp as-is, a monument to the time that audio games were single-handedly leveled up by an amazing man with a vision and the will to see it happen.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone perhaps, Aprone, you could keep the tide server running? I would understand about the testing server, and not wanting to ever think about that again. Talk about 30+ hours of ruined work. But the tide server was in good condition. And I honestly think people like tide better. And I can't really feel sympathy for you as I have not had people be as cruel to me as they were to you, but I can feel empathy. And what's even dumber is that this was the testing server and whatever they got would just disappear. Yeah, people are stupid. Though now, you will no longer be so easily exploited, I shouldn't wonder. The time of innocence, of making generalizations, is past,and experience takes over. There are the good apples, and there are the bad apples, and it can be hard to tell the difference. Reading people is a skill that you nurture and cultivate over the years. Sadly, and this is to your disadvantage, the only way you can communicate with people is through text, and text is only a single communication medium.After these thoughts, I recommend you keep a closed testing server for future games. Only allow people you trust and don't tell the community that you are testing anything, or you will get barraged with requests of people who want to test your stuff. Keep it closed and close-mouthed. Not only is it more secure, it also helps you to remain focussed. Instead of seeing 73 bug reports about various things, you might only see 6, and you can deal with that. I kno this because I had a private testing team for damage extreme and it was very effective in keeping me focussed and moving forward.To end this, I want to tell you that I'll support you in your future edeavors, whatever they be. You have, by your actions, proved your ability to make good and wise decisions, something that I value very highly in people. The fact that you've put up with this foolishness for almost 2 years is daunting to comprehend and amazing to behold, an d it shows that you still have a great life ahead of you.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149163#p149163 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone musicman, the sad thing is probably you've got to figure at least one of these drips is on this forum, and is probably slapping themselves on the back right now for causing Aprone so much trouble. I'm serious when I say these people's identities should be made publicly known, that way we can all gang up on them, and perhaps other game devs will black ball the creeps from their games too. And if I were Aprone, I'd start taking a 0 tolerance banning policy from here on out. The only way a person gets unbanned is if some creep manages to get others banned, as has happened before, otherwise if somebody breaches the agreement, there's no second chance. Do the crime, you do the time. There's probably going to be a few on here not happy with such a drastic reaction, but I'd rather see that, than see Aprone leave the community in disgust because of the misbehavior of a few creeps. And sadly, while I wish testing were left open to the public, I'm afr aid if this kind of thing is going to be a problem, then setting up a private team will probably have to be the solution.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone Ok, this has really made me angry. Man how dare people pull up this garbage? I'll be honest with you Aprone, if you had decided to just pull the plug and quit swamp development for good, I wouldn't have blamed you in the slightest. I woudl've been very upset and so would a ton of people, but I couldn't blame you. the things that really made me angry is that these people could've simply asked, like civilized human beings, hey Aprone, could you give me such an such item for testing purposes? I mean the stupid thing was a test server, and it will eventually get reset, so what good will the items do them anyway? even though I'm extremely angry and disgusted about this, I can't say I'm surprised. there are really bad people out there who just enjoy destroying everything someone has worked for. they probably did consider that you would break the code, but guess what? they're so stupid, they didn't even care. all they care about is that y ou gave them back their items, whatever it took. In some deep level I feel bad for these folks, I mean you really have to be a low life and a very pitiful excuse for a human being to pull something like this off. I think if you took swamp offline, some of them would consider suiciding, that's how stupid and desperate they are. their life is Swamp, and if they actually pull this off, then it must be pretty meaningless beyond that. because I just can't believe that rational human beings with an ounce of decency would pull this off. but you know, you can't be shocked. people do a lot worse in this world. I just don't know what else to say man. do whatever you feel is best, but always remember that there are many great people that love your game, and that we really appreciate what you do, even if these thugs don't. there are tons of us that would've helped with the item loss bug, tons of trustworthy people that post on this forum and that communicate with y ou regularly. next time, contact us first, and we'll help you as much as possible. don't ever trust these random fools, and don't give up man. I bet that's exactly what they want you to do, they'll throw a party most likely if you do so. if you think they care about your game, then you're wrong. these hackers, cheaters, and manipulaters only care about themselves, and the satisfaction they get from causing chaos, but there are thousands of us that truly care, and new players join every day and praise this awesome game. a few of us were getting a bit worried since you went silent all of a sudden and that's not like you, so don't do that again man! Well I realized this rant probably won't make you any happier, but hey, I had to get it off my chest. hahaha.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone Hey Aprone,That sounds really frustrating. I'm glad to hear you're taking a break from things.Sometimes I find I need a break just because so many bug reports come in and it gets me down about the quality of my games.And I don't deal with even a 10th of the pressure you are under.I second SLJ's comment about getting a trusted test team.But I'm glad you don't want to leave the audio games scene and for now I think it's best that you're taking time to relax and re-think things.I hope you can find a way to still enjoy making audio games.But in the end you need to do what is going to make you the happiest.Ian ReedURL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149150#p149150 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone I'm close to speechless! seriously, I'm really shocked! I never expected people to make that much trouble, to complain and make fake bug reports just because they want items. that's absolutely horrible! I wish those people would be banned, forever, and they should never get in other future games you'll hopefully make. Damn I'm shocked. I'm shocked because those people are so stupid that they never would understand how much trouble they have made, neither if they read this on the forum. they only think about their own situration, and don't think about actions which can totally brake something which lots of great people have enjoyed playing world wide for more than 100 hours. Swamp is not just a game, but it's also like a social network or chat system, which so many people enjoy. I feel so bad about the way some people are trying to brake all this in such a stupid way that they wouldn't understand the whole situration if we even tried to explain that in all languages.Aprone I think it's time to make a closed testing team of people you really trust. I don't care if you choose me or not. The important thing is that you fully trust those people. It seems as some troublemakers are trying to do what they can to make trouble for everyone, simply because they aren't able to do better things than that. So I'll say for bug fixing and the testing server, you should consider a testing team of people you really trust.I hope you'll bann those people who made that trouble, and I really hope you'll continue your great work. I don't ly when I'm saying that you're the best game developer we ever have had in the blind community. there are many other great developers out there, there really are, but I have never seen any developer working so hard on making great games and updates, been so great when it comes to listen to feedback and then draw your own conclution depending on what fits best in your games. And there are no other developers that I know of in the blind community who have tolerated that much crap from troublemakers, but still continue to see the good sides of people and continue the great work. So I really hope you'll continue your great work, and I understand you're feeling really bad about this situration at the moment...URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149145#p149145 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone I've been putting off posting anything, but I can't seem to fall back to sleep tonight so I might as well.I don't remember how many days the testing server was up, but most of you guys know I had been setting aside many hours each day to work on those few pesky bugs that have been plaguing Swamp for a long time now. It has been a mixture of chatting with players as I made code changes, or watching incoming reports and adjusting things based on that.Whatever the day was that I took the testing server down, I think I had spent about 8 hours working on code. The inventory loss bug has had me super confused, but it's really the biggest thing that needs fixing. I don't recall the exact quotes, but I'm still going to put quotes around examples. I'd get some report like "I just signed back in and I lost my Shield and Boots." So I'd reimburse the people, run tests on their inventory, and adjust a nything in the code that could explain why those 2 specific items would be lost when signing in. I'd get another report "Just changed maps from 2 to 3, and my Ceramic armor is gone!". So I repeat the process and adjust code. Usually I would check to see if the same person would get the same item loss bug when they repeated the action, and again, make code changes based on the results. This had gone on for days, but I believe it was 8 hours on the last day.Most of you know that I'd been handing out free gear during the tests, especially since most of the time I would use the "Send to all" commands to give everyone a copy of whatever someone asked for. Unrelated but also important, is that over the course of a few days, the inventory bugs seemed to be getting even more random and worse. Stuff that had seemed fixed was starting to act up again as I continued to tweak code based on incoming reports. It was ve ry frustrating.So at the end of that 8 hours I had just reimbursed a guy after receiving, what seemed like the, the millionth bug report. Just before going through the routine of examining his inventory, comparing it to all past reports to look for patterns, and adjusting the code, something in chat happened to catch my eye completely by accident. (Again I'm using quotes but don't remember the exact words to any of this). The guys whispers to someone "You're right, it worked!" I watched the whispered conversation continue and this person was excited that he had gotten Aprone to give him some items. Turns out he had never had those items to begin with, and the other person he was talking to had shared with him the plan that if you fill out a convincing sounding bug report for lost items, Aprone would send them to you! So the guy had been sharing that revelation with others, so they could give it a try too.I op ened up the chat history logs and started to skim through. Sure enough, these 2 people were not the only ones that had actually had whispered conversations about this plan, so there had been at least a handful of people filling out completely fake bug reports just to see if I would send them free stuff. I opened up the inventory history logs and did a quick check to look up the last, maybe 5 or 6, reports I'd been sent. It didn't take long to see that one guy had never had the items he said he'd lost. A little more looking and I found a second. At that point I was done, and I closed the logs. Not only did I have a handful of people from chat logs, but clearly others had been doing the same thing. No wonder I spent days and days on this bug, only to find myself going in circles. No wonder it seemed to actually be getting more random and worse! Mixed in with the legitimate reports, I've had a small army (I exagg erate) sending in intentionally misleading bug reports just to see if they could trick me into sending them free equipment, on a server where I've been openly handing out free gear as people request it. It wasn't about the gear, it was about seeing if they could trick me.I guess you could say I was angry. I'm still angry actually. I said "Screw this", closed down the logs, closed down the testing server, exited Skype, and walked away from my computer. If people's donations hadn't been sent in to keep the main server running, I'd have shut that one down too. There are tons of amazing people here in this community, but there are also just SOO many that want to essentially bite the hand that feeds them. The testing client's code is so entangled with changes made due to fake reports, that I honestly have no earthly idea where to even begin fixing it. Even if I assume that the fake reports only ever happened during that last 8 hour day, I'd be lucky if I could undo that damage in 30 hours. I've cooled down enough to acknowledge that those people probably had no idea what kind of damage they were actually doing, but getting "bit" that day was one bite too many.I don't really remember how many days it has been since I closed the server, but f

Re: IOS7: Your thoughts Hi,Thanks sebby for the answer. as far as updateing gos,I still haven't managed to install IOS. or download it,for that matter.I downloaded IOS7 from a direct link,and guess what?it wouldn't let me install the dam thing on to my phone,saying that the furmware wasn't compatible with my phone,although I am a 100% sure that I downloaded the right one.Started the usual IOS7 download from itunes later,but then realised I had to run off,and since I had to take my pc along I had to stop the download when it was about 600 700mb done. my net's quite slow,so its still downloading now. its almost done,though...Looking forward to the new voices,and siri now that I can have it switched to some language other than AU english.Grryf.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149127#p149127 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] IOS7: Your thoughts
Re: IOS7: Your thoughts OK, so I was force-fed a chicken wrap with fries and fell asleep before I could strike up the nerve to systematically upgrade my devices. My iTunes has been closed (and my Xcode, too) since upgrade, and I haven't had much nerve to reopen those until the upgrade is done, either. My caching server has cached all the new software after the updates rolled out, and it also has been updated (both the client and server parts, which killed me since I couldn't use VNC). My devices will be shuffling around just as soon as the new nanoSIM arrives from O2, now on order.So now it's a fresh new day, and I'll take this problem full-on. By the end, I should be listening to podcasts again, just like before. @Grryf: Contacts are stored in iCloud, they're not part of your backup unless they are stored locally, or synced from a computer. Simply turn Contacts on agai n once you've set up iCloud (it should happen automagically if you follow the setup steps).@Chris: Honestly, although I disagree with Apple's business practices (Siri has been shown to work on iPhone 4), the simple truth is that each new version of iOS is less and less suitable for older devices. I'm afraid upgrading is in your future if you want Siri, animations, or any number of other touches.Does anybody know whether or not the Podcasts app is still optional to play podcasts synced over from iTunes?

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Anyone ever beat the borg in STFC?
Re: Anyone ever beat the borg in STFC? Well i don't know what you mean by background sfx. The borg ships had their own background noises, and the borg themselves made hydraulic and servo motor type noises when they moved, but their speech didn't have any background beyond the voice itself with it's effects.Btw, this was one thing I slightly disliked about the borg queen, she felt far too human to be the suposed head of something as inhuman as the borg what with her taunts, her tempting of data and her evil villain speeches, aprticularly since she didn't have any of the same Borg voice affects as when you just heard the collective speak.Myself, I'd have preferd the borg to just stay as a faceless, collective threat, more like the cells of a single body working in consort than like a hive of bees with a queen, particularly since of course, in bee hives queens actually don't "rule" anything, they just lay the eggs.so in t he game you need to hunt down and destroy traces of the borg and their technology, from small tracking stations and devices to cubes and massive installations, since only destroying everything will insure the total destruction of the borg now that their consciousness is no longer centralised.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] paypal transfer a little help?
Re: paypal transfer a little help? @Grryf, nope, entombed isn't hardware based, though you may have to get your friends entombed account name, password and E-mail for authorisation purposes, which would likely also spill the beans . @Sebby, while I agree antipiracy measures are draconian and serve more to inconvenience the innocent than cause trouble for the guilty, at the same time I disagree that it's a reason to lose trust in a developer or not buy games. "instant gratification" to me also reads as "greedy!" and since the developer has taken the trouble making the game, they do have the final say on distribution.To take one example, even though all their games are free Ian humphries of spoonbill still refuses to put his games for basic download and asks for mailed requirests. The reason hear isn't anti piracy, just that Ian himself likes to know people are playing and enjoying his games, and wants more interaction with those who play them than just a download counter.Yes,it means when Ian releases a new game you need to physically send him an E-mail, but I for one don't find that too onorous given the work he's done. To an extent indeed, I'd view most if not all audio game developers like this.After all, even people like Gma who charge for their games aren't exactly the prophiteers seen in the mainstream industry.As such while I don't personally like the hardware key system, and would agree that online activation is a far more fare and user friendly system, I still don't think it's reasonable to say boycot a developers' games or castigate them because of this when it hasn't been earned.Up until their closing down sale, and the fact that they've effectively made it so that nobody can legally play their games ever again , I'd have said that Bsc, while not perhaps the most user friendly authorisation system, isn't unreasonable, since after all they had! created some pretty good games, (I'd still regard pipe 2 as one of the better examples of an audio game).I'm not arguing the ethics of the system, just stating that I do feel audio game developers deserve a little more slack than they are given in some quarters over this issue.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149101#p149101 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: [Audiogames-reflector] IOS7: Your thoughts
Re: IOS7: Your thoughts Hi.If you go into the Voiceover settings, you can choose what primiom voices you wanna instal which I find really amazing.If you configure the language rotor, you can change the voices on the fly. You can also now add a toggle if you wanna switch between the compact voices and the primioum voices.the vocolizer voices, well, that's a personal thing. I can live with that, and your english speaking people, you should thank Apple for having multiple choices when it comes to english voices. Now, the danish voice has changed, and I must say this is not good. The voice sounds pretty great, but it have so many issues in pronouncing words, so many people are forced to choose between the compact voices and primiom voices on the fly, to be able to just hear what the voice is reading! And, in danish, there is only one voice.I like all the new sounds, new messages tones and new ringtones. I like that apple have put all the old tones in a sepret folder. I like all the other new features. I like the appswitcher, control center, the new messages center and especially the new calender!I hope to get time to edit the first post today, or tomorrow. Keep up the awesome discussion going.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=149100#p149100 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Announcing Codename Cygnus - an Interactive Radio Drama for iOS!
Re: Announcing Codename Cygnus - an Interactive Radio Drama for iOS! Hi.I'm not trying to push you to work faster, but I'm looking so much forward to play the rest of mission 1, side quests and the later missions. It's not very often that I'm playing games where I can't wait to play something which is being worked on, but I'm enjoying Codename Cyygnus so much... I agree that the sound quallity could have been better, and I think that could be a toggle, because it sounds like the 22 khz is an effect which is put on some high quality sounds, mainly because Voiceover and the other sounds is also being changed.I think the rest of mission one is comming, very soon.
