Re: [Audyssey] Change Reaction: finishing within the last second, and other thoughts
The ability to have the time be more precise if there is less than a second left on the clock is a good idea, and we will look into adding that feature. Being able to play the bonus round at any time sort of defeats its purpose as a challenge and reward for clearing the board, so, at least for now, that idea is not one we're considering. We really appreciate the feedback and suggestions, and are definitely open to more ways in which we can improve the game. Based on feedback from various lists, Twitter, etc, we have several tweaks planned for the next update.

I personally think that's rather neat, and I kind of wish it could go into the tenths or hundredths of a second in those situations. One play I would like to see allowed is when you have a situation such as (Dime, blank, blank, Dime), to be allowed to play dimes in either of those blank spots to connect the four of them and remove them from the board. If I remember correctly, this was allowed in the old version. Also, would it be possible to have the bonus round playable from the main menu once you've beaten it in a regular game? In this case the round would just keep track of your best time. Karl --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] games we'd like to play: definition game
Hi list I've been thinking about an idea for a new word game. The game gives you a definition and you must type the word for which the definition is. To give an example: The game gives the following definition: A toiletry designed to beautify the body The correct word is cosmetics. Another example: The game gives the following definition: Elevation especially above sea level or above the earth's surface The correct word is altitude. Another example: The game gives this definition: Difficult to accomplish; demanding considerable mental effort and skill The correct word for this definition is arduous. The game gives you a list of difficulty levels to choose from. On easy you can guess about 5 times the word for which the definition is but on hard difficulty you only get one guess. ON easy difficulty the game gives you definitions for very familiar words, but on hard difficulty the game gives you definitions for less familiar words. What do you all think about this idea? Is it possible to develop such a game with bgt? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

The kids will fall in the holes, but the bombs get me every time. Another question was how on earth do you operate the item detector.

Re: [Audyssey] games we'd like to play: definition game
Kill or be killed games are beyond me, but word games, such as you describe, are my cup of tea! It is very similar to that found on www.freerice.com in which every successful answer is worth 10grains of rice which is paid for by revenue from advertising, and then, is distributed to the starving of the world. However, one drawback is that the base dictionary is not being, regularly, refreshed and augmented, so after a while, one gets to know the correct option of the 4 from which the player makes his choice!. I would offer the suggestion that, if possible, this drawback should be revised, or otherwise, your game will have a short life!

One way around this might be to give the number of letters in the answer that the game is looking for, or give the first letter.

It would make you think, which is what I like. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. - Original Message - From: Phil Vlasak phi...@bex.net To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, December 22, 2012 5:50 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] games we'd like to play: definition game Hi Nicol, To solve Thomas's problem with the concept you could have the answers in multiple choice so in answer to the definition, A toiletry designed to beautify the body you could list cosmetology cosmetics. cortices chromatics. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, December 22, 2012 5:55 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] games we'd like to play: definition game Hi Nicol, Well, it is definitely an interesting concept. It should be pretty easy to create in any language or toolkit, and yes can be done quite easily in BGT. My only concern with this type of game is synonymous words that have the same meaning or definition. There are a number of words in the English language that mean the same thing and could become confusing in this sort of game. For example, elevation and altitude are synonymous. The question would have to be worded very careful in order to allow the player to know which word the game was looking for. A generic definition such as “above sea level” wouldn't be enough to know which word was expected in this case. Cheers!

The game gives you a definition and you must type the word for which the definition is. To give an example: The game gives the following definition: A toiletry designed to beautify the body The correct word is cosmetics. Another example: The game gives the following definition: Elevation especially above sea level or above the earth's surface The correct word is altitude. Another example: The game gives this definition: Difficult to accomplish; demanding considerable mental effort and skill The correct word for this definition is arduous. The game gives you a list of difficulty levels to choose from. On easy you can guess about 5 times the word for which the definition is but on hard difficulty you only get one guess. ON easy difficulty the game gives you definitions for very familiar words, but on hard difficulty the game gives you definitions for less familiar words. What do you all think about this idea? Is it possible to develop such a game with bgt? --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Two-Fer-One E-mail: Laser Tag and iOS Game
Hi. I'll answer two questions at once. The home button is on the right, though it'll just reorient if it's on the left, but I usually do play with the home button on the rithg. Also, no. I can't provide a link to the app in the App store, because I don't know the link. I didn't make the App, but if you search for ErnCon, then you'll find it rather quickly. The developer of the App is Ernest Woo of www.WooGames.com, in case you want more info. Keep in mind, this app is fully cross-platform with Android devices, so you can play this game with lots of friends. As for the Lazer Tag, I kind of gave up on reviewing the lazer tag and Light Strike products before Christmas. I decided to put off procrastinating about it until after CHristmas, when I will return to my regularly scheduled procrastination program.

Hmmm. Where to begin. The control stick for navigating your ship is located along the bottom left corner of your screen, which is put into landscape mode by default. Let's assume your Home button is to the right, your control stick is about one inch square, maybe an inch and a half, but I don't think so. It's just at the bottom left corner, and the thing you need to remember is that there is inertia and acceleration. What I mean is this. If you push the control stick on the left side or move it left, you won't just slide left. You will build up speed in that direction. If you are touching the control stick icon, your engines are firing, and you are moving in the direction you've touched. If you go outside the control stick's borders, you are no longer firing your engines, and you come to a stop over time. As for your weapons buttons, your bottom right corner, and a two inch by one inch rectangle proceeding left and up from that point is your primary firing button. Weapons fired with this button have unlimited ammunition. Above this, along the right side of the device's screen are two more panels, about an inch square, with secondary weapons firing functions. These panels fire ammunition based weapons: rockets, missiles, mines, and the like. The primary weapon for your first ship is a straight-firing energy cannon, with a firing rate of about 3 shots a second. It's pretty distinctive. As for switching ships, you start out with one ship, the Light Fighter. It's fast, maneuverable, but relatively weak in both arms and armor. You also start with a full complement of missiles and missile plumes. These two weapons, unfortunately, sound identical, and you really don't want to keep both equipped anyway, as they perform, basically, the same function, firing a projectile, or a series of five projectiles, which track to close-range targets. In the store, there are three tabs, accessed with buttons across the top. The first is the Items tab, and it contains all the ammunition based weapons that you can buy. Technically, you already own whatever weapons, you're just buying ammo for them. If you follow the left side of the device's screen, you'll see the list of weapons, starting with Homing Missile. On the right side and in the middle are various data about the selected weapon. Swiping left and right moves between these fields, and you'll see a button labeled Equipped. If you select a different weapon, rockets, for example, you will notice that the Equipped button changes to the Equip button, and it's no longer dimmed out. press this to equip the selected weapon, and you'll be prompted to choose one of your two currently equipped systems to unequip to effect the transfer. Changing ships works similarly. You select the Ships tab in the row across the top and locate a different ship in the list down the left side. Please remember that you start with only the Light Fighter. Other ships cost money. Sometimes that money is in-game, sometimes' it's real money. Explore your options and read about all the ships and their prices and characteristics in the fields in the middle and on the right. Whether you're selecting weapons or ships, there's a buy button on the bottom right, just below the Equip button. If this button is dimmed out, you can't buy it, because you don't have the funds. If you have the funds, select the buy button. As for the tutorial mission, I sort of skipped it by mistake. Any mission you choose, except I think the Tutorial, is multiplayer. Deep Space mining is the first, under the missions selection screen. There are others along the left side. You'll want to press the start button in the bottom

Can't find that navigation stick. lol Right now seems I can only shoot. That's frustrating... but I haven't given up yet! :P --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
