Re: [Audyssey] The wastes
I just downloaded the file no problem, though I do have addblock installed. Looking forward to checking this out. -- From: "dark" Sent: Friday, July 17, 2015 13:26 To: Subject: [Audyssey] The wastes to anyone who hasn't been checking the news over at audiogames.net, this is about the new game in very very very! rapid development, Thewastes. find it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/thewastes This is a console window style game (though it'll work on all versions of windows), where you enter newmeric commands and hit enter. It has a few sfx and background sounds, but most things are textual. The controls are easy, just hit a number, for example you'll be asked 1 to equip a weapon or 0 to move on. The game is set in a post appocalyptic very ruined world full of mutant creatures and nearly everything is randomly generated, from the enemies you fight to the weapons you find, you can encounter towns and mine ore (though the town system is a bit cursery at the moment), find dungeons full of creatures, gain random mutations and generally have lots of fun. The developer has already stuck in some access fixes, such as disabling the ascii art in the game, and having an option to turn off all sounds if your finding them too loud beside your screen reader. For now, just hit 3 and enter from the main menu to get to options, then hit 4 and enter to disable ascii, and 5 and enter to disable sounds. There are new versions literally every single day with new stuff, whether new encounters or types of monster or entire new regions, plus aforesaid ascii fix. The only slight issue some people have encountered (one person who reacted rather violently I'm afraid), is that the developer is hosting the downloads on the mediafire file sharing service which some people have found a bit bad for random adds and even captchas. I've had no trouble myself, but some people have. Installing An add blocker reputedly fixes the problem, as does copying the "download file 71 mb" liink from the mediafire page which actually downloads the file with right click, and opening it rather than just hitting enter. This is unfortunately just the fault of Mediafire, and no reflection on the quality of the game, indeed the developer has mentioned moving to another file hosting system in the future if he can. Enjoy! the game is awesome, especially if you liked games like fallthru and drone, I've played for literally hours this week. All the best, Dark. There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn.

Re: [Audyssey] Fwd: Dead But Alive - New game from the Smugglers 5developers
I suggest you discuss it with nielsbauer, particularly the addition of some way of managing the action based stuff, eg, sound kews. it might be made accessible if there is enough interest, hopefully things will go better than they did in the case of empires and dungeons 2. All the best, DArk. There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn.

Greetings,Anouk, Begin forwarded message: From: Subject: Dead But Alive - New game from the Smugglers 5 developers Date: 17 Jul 2015 14:38:37 CEST To: radix.an...@gmail.com Reply-To: Announce day is finally here! Here is the latest project we´ve been working on together with Highcliffe Media Publishing GmbH and Winter Wolves. Well today you get to find out a whole lot more! The most important news is that today the public beta has been released, so you could head over and play it right away here: http://winterwolves.com/deadbutalive_southernengland.htm What is Dead But Alive? Dead But Alive is a zombie survival adventure/simulation set in Southern England. A simple camping holiday for a former military officer suddenly turns into a fight for survival in a world devastated by the undead. Separated from a loved one, he must lead a small, ragged team of survivors, build a camp, scavenge for supplies and try to stay alive, all while trying to track her down. The game features a non-linear storyline with moral choices on despair, commitment and sacrifice. Key features: • Non-linear adventure storyline with moral choices that have lasting consequences • Turn-based sandbox zombie survival simulation • Manage a team of survivors, build a camp and scavenge for supplies • Deal with depression, infection and starvation while trying to survive. • Farm, hunt, plunder, negotiate or rob. The choice is yours. • Full-HD artwork Winter Wolves made three blog entries with more infos here: http://www.winterwolves.net/blog/ Right now it´s just a beta version, but it´s well worth to check it out. It´s only for Windows at this time. Also there is no compatibility mode for blind people, because - although the simulation part is turn-based - there are some action-oriented mini games included.
