Re: AudioWizards Multiplayer Update

Apologies for the late answer!We have not yet outlined how the beta invites are sent out, but I believe the people who were testers the last time and want to test this time too have a good chance.Also, promised some updates this week, but there may not be much to update on. Likely we'll have a lot more at the start of next year. But again, I'll answer questions as well as I can.

Re: AudioWizards Multiplayer Update

Hi again! Small update as I promised.About the beta testing, we will look to release the game on the first half of 2021, so beta testing / Early Access will be before that.This game is a different game from the single-player AudioWizards, thus it will be released separately.More updates next week, but before that I'll try to answer any questions to the best of my abilities.

Making of Audiowizards Multiplayer

[AudioGames . net Forum — General Game Discussion : AudioWizards via Audiogames-reflector]

  


Making of Audiowizards Multiplayer

Hi! My name is Martti Kandelin. I’ve been a member of the AudioWizards Multiplayer team since last Autumn, and while working most of my time as the game’s graphics artist, I have been recently moved to the role of Beta test coordinator. Now, while we wait for the Beta-Test Day, we thought it would be a good idea to tell a short story about how we reached this point.The project originates from Autumn 2019, in Turku University of Applied Sciences, here in Finland, during a Capstone Innovation Project course. We were initially seven students, but in January we grew to nine, including programmers, a networker, graphic designers, and one marketer. The main goal of the project was to figure out how to make an interesting multiplayer audio game. We didn’t have prior experience in audio games, and neither did we know what it felt like to play a game using only audio, nor how few are accessible out of most current games for blind and visually impaired players. The first couple of months we thought about different concepts, two of the most interesting being a player versus player and a players versus A.I. game. Time was running fast, and we knew programming A.I. could put, because of its difficulty, the whole project at risk. So we took the other option. Now, looking backwards, I think we made the right decision. We also liked the previous AudioWizards and the funny stories of Saundaman, so we decided to use that world as a guideline but under a new concept, so to say.After winter holidays, the concept, development roles, tasks and the project schedule were kind of clear. We got nice tutoring from David, the CEO of myTrueSound and from Jani, Axel and Joonas, who were behind the original AudioWizards. We met David every week, and the rest once a month. They were critical with us, but also gave us the freedom to create, test and innovate, because that was the point of the whole Capstone Course after all.We worked applying sprint periods and meetings every Tuesday and Friday. First came the movement, map layout, sound design and further re-definition of the game design. Later came the networking, controls, game mechanics, accessibility issues and so on. We have learned a lot, and by the end of the project we knew much more about game design and development. Work was fluent, but we tried to be critical with our own work as much as we could.As part of the Capstone Course we had to present our project in one pitching and two Demo Day competitions. Competition was tight, since there were 40 other teams besides us. Pitching didn’t go so well, I guess. First Demo Day went much better, even though we didn’t win. Second Demo Day was affected by COVID-19, but our team actually won the best presentation video award, and that felt nice. The Covid-19 also affected the way we work, and we had to change the way we meet and share ideas and tasks, since suddenly everything was remote.After the Capstone Course the prototype was working, but certainly we were far away from Beta. Me and Jakub, an excellent programmer by the way, were contracted by myTrueSound to get it done, and here Jani, Axel and Joonas came to join us and helped towards our goal.We are very glad at the moment. In a few days the closed Beta will launch, and nearly a hundred testers will gain access to it. We have never been involved in such a big event and game development process.Thanks for reading!Best regards,Martti and the rest of the AW-MP team

At the current rate of people applying, we could be very close to the 100 Beta testers we were looking for. I will be in contact with our team to make sure we can coordinate the testing properly.On the note of a tester being unavailable during a scheduled test session:We will most likely have multiple sessions which will help us to avoid these kind of problems.- Martti Kandelin

Re: AudioWizards & Soundtrack Coming to PC on Steam 22nd of January

Wow this got big quite fast! Well let's answer some questions.Controller support:Unfortunately the PC version doesn't have controller support due to some time constraints. If this becomes highly requested, however, we will consider adding it in the case we do an update later.Linux & Mac support:Admittely Linux support is probably something we will never do for AudioWizards. As much as we would like to enable the game on all platforms, such as Linux, it is a high stretch from both the technical and financial stand point for us. Comparatively, these are the same reasons we didn't launch for Mac. We would like to apologize for all the interested players and fans with either Linux or Mac. Hopefully we could return to take a look on these platforms in some form in the future.Soundtrack:This is something we agree. Including all the hasle that comes with setting up Steam and purchasing both the game and soundtrack to gain access to the latter. We'll see if there is anything we can do to provide the soundtrack through another channel. As always, thanks a lot for all the support and questions!

AudioWizards 1.1.0 update, sale, competition and all kinds of other st

Hello everyone! You might have already noticed but AudioWizards just got updated with 1.1.0 patch. As the updated has now hit online we think this is a great opportunity to talk about stuff that’s going on at the moment.The patch 1.1.0, named “Saundaman is Missing!”, includes 5 new story levels and 3 hats for the Endless Mode as well some minor adjustments and bug fixes. In the story levels, you solve the mystery behind Saundaman’s sudden disappearance with the help of audio logs that have seemingly been left behind. The levels are, of course, ramped up in difficulty so now is a good chance to test out your skills!Now is also a good chance to test the game out in case you haven’t yet as AudioWizards is going on SALE in both Apple App Store & Google Play! The sale is only for a limited time in both stores (7 days in Play Store & 16 days App Store) so be quick! The sale should be starting either today or tomorrow.We have also reviewed each entry that we got for the Design Competition but as not to drag out this thread, we will make a separate announcement about it later this week soon after. We will contact the winners afterwards to distribute the prize. Thanks for all the participants!So, what else have we been up to? Currently, we have two additional projects running in the background. MusicMaze, a new game you might have heard a little bit here and there, and an AudioWizards related one.MusicMaze will be an endless runner set in the mazes of Liande, a world inhabited by tribes of cute and small creatures called Chips. We will unveil a little bit more about MusicMaze later this Winter.The AudioWizards project is a brand-new project that we just recently started. However, the concept behind it isn’t anything new as it’s related to something that we and many of our fans have been tinkering quite a lot; Creating AudioWizards multiplayer! Just like last year, this project will be planned in cooperation together with students from the local university. The project is still brand new so there isn’t much else to say but we will be making updates about it once we have more worthwhile thinks to say.That’s all for now. Thank you everyone who has supported us thus far and hopefully you will be hearing more news about us soon!Regards,-AudioWizards Dev Team & myTrueSound

Re: Reviewing AudioWizards, ranting, and who knows what else

Thanks for the honest opinion! Most of us here in myTrueSound agree too that GoldGun was a rather disappointing product in the end. We don't consider it as a waste however as the feedback we got (both positive and, especially, not so positive) helped us refine AudioWizards as a much better game. We have also understood some of the flaws AudioWizards had and just like with GoldGun we will use it as a learning opportunity to better polish our next project. As a developer, keep the feedback and criticism coming! Sometimes it's hard to notice things that are wrong in your own creations but that's what well-thought feedback and community is for.  Thank you for that!

Re: AudioWizards Design Competition

Dark wrote:One question I have about the story, how long exactly should it be? and how detailed. EG is this meant as part of the game or not. Also, is it meant to use the character from the character suggestion or not? Are we talking here a piece of fiction set in the audio wizards world, or something which could potentially be a gameplay storyline for the future? I'd be interested to know.The story can be anything as long as it is related to the AudioWizards Universe, in other words, it can be any piece of fiction related to it. It can be a side story, a spin-off, a future game setting etc. It doesn't have to be anything straightly related to the game and it doesn't have to involve any existing characters, they are just suggestions. There are also no word limit so you could technically write an entire book if you wanted (if someone does I promise to read it from the beginning lol).To give out some example plots; How was the Altto Academy founded or How does Saundaman do his special brew tea.Now that I think about, I'll might edit the instructions on the website to be a bit more specific. Also, thanks for participating!

You have up and down arrows to navigate menus and enter to confirm options, escape to cancel/go back... I'm just illustrating to say that I'm wondering why the developer said it would require different mechanics.That's actually pretty close to the control scheme we've used for running the game on Unity. We think however the game might give a "cheapish" vibe if we do a straight port. People usually have, understandably, pretty strong opinions about games that are mobile games first and desktop games second. If we do a PC port we would like to make it feel like a PC game but let's see how the launch goes!Sean-Terry01 wrote:The reason I said windows is because, one of the demos was using one of the Microsoft voices for windows 10. It was also saying "Press Enter to Select".Whoops, that one slipped through. Nice catch! It's because we filmed the gameplay with a Windows PC. We tried to do it with a phone but without a proper iPhone it really is pain in the butt to get mobile footage with correct audio. The setup we tried looked like a dystopian medical machine with all the wires and even then the amount of white noise was unbearable.

It'd be nice to have another game on my Android. I'll for sure be picking this one up when it hits the digital shelves.Thanks for the interest! Currently we are only launching for the mobile platforms (iOS and Android) but if the demand is there, we might do a PC adaptation (with PC scaled mechanics, of course, as they don't translate that well to a PC currently).

AudioWizards How to Play Video and Gameplay

Hey y'all! How are you doing?Just like we promised some time ago, here's a guide video telling how exactly AudioWizards work. Voiced by yours truly, Dark!https://youtu.be/PODJ6XMg3McHopefully the video doesn't feel too self-explanatory. We wanted to make video with every kind of an audience in mind, especially those who might not have any experience with audio games.Here's also some links to gameplay from two levels featured in the game. These are uncommentated to give a better feeling about the whole game. Feel free to ask any questions! Otherwise, see you on the 1st of September! Level name: Wizard's My Name, Tea's My Gamehttps://youtu.be/45fRbzuUgwgLevel name: Enter the Cursed Foresthttps://youtu.be/zuscnzXZcNg

SLJ wrote: Hi.Wow. I look very much forward to check this out. The gameplay sounds easy, but I hope it isn't that easy as it sounds. smileDon't worry, that's wont be the case Honk wrote:Hi MyTrueSound-Team,I found it to be almost impossible to discern actual gameplay in this trailer - at least for me - so I can't really comment on that. What you describe in your post #7 sounds quite interessting though. Especially the sound design feels pretty crisp and high quality which I like.For me AudioDefense Zombie Arena was probably the best audio game for iOS and maybe even the best arcade audio game across all platforms. This sounds like it could be a little like that which I like even more.So I'll definitely give Audiowizards a try!...This feedback is not meant as criticism because I don't see why I should criticise you here. I just want to throw my perspective into the mix Thanks for the interest! Wow, this is actually exactly the kind of feedback we're looking for. Thanks a lot! We have also acknowledged the fact that the "gameplay" trailer didn't showcase the actual gameplay in a clear way. We wanted to try to make the trailer feel like any other trailer for any game while making it accessible, which just didn't hit the mark this time. At the moment we're crafting another kind of video which should make it very clear what kind of game AudioWizards is with commentary and how-to-play section. I cannot say any certain release date for the next video but it should be ready well before the release date  Once again, thanks for the feedback! And don't worry about the criticism, we here at Team AudioWizards and myTrueSound are still learning and appreciate any form of feedback. That's the part of being a game developer, afterall!

You have three lives default but depending on the scenario you can gain more or less. As I said in a previous reply, there will be different settings which will affect how you should approach each specific scenario! For example, in the Story Mode, you might have a level where you have disturbing noise trying to hinder your focus. These modifiers you encounter in the Story Mode will also be present in the Endless Mode where your skills are really put into a test when aiming for the higher scores. You can also unlock some new things in the Story Mode which we'll keep as secrets for now

Re: AudioWizards Gameplay Trailer and Launch Date

Hello everyone! Thanks for the support and questions, I'll try to answer each of them in this reply.adel.spence wrote:is this for android, ios, mac, or windows?Sorry for the late answer! AudioWizards will be released for both Android and iOS. Of course, with high enough demand, we might consider doing a PC-version. Arkandias wrote:Actually I don't know what happens during these sequence, but I'm still curious about the game! Hopefully we've only seen the visible part of the iceberg!Thanks for the curiosity! We understand the concerns about the vagueness and we promise to make everything as clear as possible before the release. We will also be handing out review copies of the game to content creators which hopefully helps to bring some third-party perspective about the game. I'll try to explain more about the gameplay in the next answer:siria wrote:The music is very nice, but I didn't understand how the gameplay works... Do we have to draw simbols on the phone? Do we have to react to the enemy sound like in A Blind Legend?Thanks for the questions! AudioWizards will be action orientated game. In the game, enemies approach you from three different directions while you have to defend yourself from them never reaching you. You have four different elements at your disposal with each enemy having their own weaknesses. You select the spells and cast them by doing simple swipe gestures (fun fact: very early in the development we actually thought about using symbols ). While your tools stay pretty much the same throughout the whole game, the changes come from the different scenarios you will be facing through your journey. We also want AudioWizards to have a high skill ceiling for the players who really want to master the game.

We were surprised by the activity and we are grateful for all the support! All the tracks took a different perspective while staying true to the theme.  We are still reviewing all the tracks but, in the meantime, we were working on a website where all the tracks are available for you to listen. The site is now ready and can be found here: https://www.mytruesound.com/audiowizards-music  On the site, you can not only listen but also comment on which one (or ones) are your favorite! We are going to check all the comments and consider them while making our decisions, but the final decision is still down to our team.   Best regards, myTrueSound & AudioWizards Team
