Re: [Audyssey] Blindfold Barnyard, some thoughts

[Kenneth Downey]

Agree with Dark on all points here,  but I do think that abbreviating things 
too much could get confusing. I would stick With something like sheep 
northwes!, or better yet, two sheep and a dog northwest. The more these kinds 
of info can be concatinated the better. Alternatively, you could say, sheep 314 
which would mean that there's a sheep at 314 degrees. This would be much more 
precise than the cardinal directions, but the player should be able to choose 
which method they want. Also, how far away is the animal! We could invent a new 
type of measurement, like a minicubit and minispan. The bigger one would be 
four fingers touching and laid out in a straight line on the screen. The 
smaller one would be one single fingertip, and the player would customize both 
measurements before starting the first game.
Of course there is an even simpler way, a way all blind people know by the time 
we get out of high school, the coordinate system. You could simply say, sheep 
at E4 and boom, it would be very easy to find. 
A final method, and I am not sUre which 3D engine Bryan Smaart used for Ear 
Monsters, but animals would be extremely easy to find without much vocal 
feedback 
These are the ways I know for giving info about things on a screen.

Re: [Audyssey] why i build the games the way I do

[Kenneth Downey]

Yes, but think about how many years Swauk was in development… And it was a free 
game… For a long time anyway, until stupid hackers started messing everything 
up… Can you imagine swab for the iPhone! Anyway, it's back to blindfold pinball 
for me now… I'm addicted!

[Kenneth Downey]

I'm not sure that you guys saw my response earlier, but I basically got scammed 
by a web host provider that claimed my site had viruses, even though I 
handcoded all the pages. Marty from Kid Friendly Softddare is planning to 
develop the game for iOS, and the more people that ask him for it, the sooner 
it'll get done. I may just program the pc version to be free, since I don't 
have a server for you to upload comments to anyway, which is a big part of the 
game.

  Hey all,
About six months ago, the web host took my site down. They claim that there are 
viruses on the site. I wrote all the HTML code by hand, so I know darn well 
that's not the case. I even took down the whole site and reuploaded it file by 
file. I believe, at this point, that 'the iPage web host is a scam. There's no 
way that my code is infected. The long and the short then is that I don't 
currently have a site, and I haven't been able to afford getting a new host
I've asked Marty of Kid friendly Software to port Phrase Madness over to iOS. 
Perhaps he will now that he's seeing some interest. He's already got all the 
files for the game, and I don't think the coding process will be difficult at 
all. I'll write him later today and let him know you are interested. I'll also 
drop a link to the PC version on Dropbox. I'm glad people are still interested 
in this game. Thanks,

 Hi John,
 Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you here, but I believe I gave the genre below. 
 Anyway, it's an arcade title. I will release a little more information so 
 people will know if they want to test the game.
 This game will be a game similar to temple run, where it basically goes on 
 forever until you lose, except probably a little more simplistic at least at 
 first. The story is that you are a bat, and need to fly through a cave, avoid 
 obsticals, picking up extras (coins, powerups, etc). There will be a couple 
 different modes, including ones where powerups are bad for you, more 
 silly/crazy ones where your arrow keys change up, and depending on the 
 difficulty you may not know which ones did without trial and error, etc.
 Any more info that you think I should provide just let me know, and I hope 
 this gave you a better feel for the game.

 Hello Ryan,
 As I'm sure you'll understand, we cannot give much information at this
 time. However, we can give you the following:
 As this is our first title, it will be more simplistic, but still not
 lacking in challenge and replayability. It will be an arcade title, with
 modes and difficulty settings similar to super egg hunt plus. And when I
 say similar, I don't mean similar as in game play, just in the way it
 has different modes of the same game play.
 Thank you, and if you have any other questions please ask, and we will
 answer if possible.

Re: [Audyssey] request for opinions on an audiogames network

[Kenneth Downey]

As a gamer, it's always nice when you can put your scores on the main server. 
That's why Game Center and iOS is so popular. Integrating it with other audio 
game developers would be even better, since you don't have to go to one place 
to get all your game scores.

 Hello all (especially audiogame developers),
 I was considering writing an audiogame server for speed of sound gaming 
 games, so that people playing our games could view scoreboards from within the
 game, chat to people playing the game they're playing (or other games), and 
 other features as needed. My question to everyone is:
 Is this something people would want? That to audiogames players, and to 
 developers. A similar question:
 Is this something you would use? If I were to make this public outside of my 
 own games I would give a library and header files (most likely for c and/or
 c++, maybe with others eventually as I figured out how to make them
 big_smile
 ) and then have you register a company/admin account on my server so you 
 could add games, add other info, etc. It would hopefully be as simple as 
 possible
 for the developer to add this to their games, for example:
 Add library/header files, build. Then at certain key points in the game, send 
 something like: logon(username, ...), then receive_message(...), etc.
 Everything would be controled through the sending of messages. Many of these 
 messages would be easily put together by simply calling something in c like:
 send_chat(username/*the username of the person*/, message, /*any other 
 details, like send to other games, maybe a game key, game password, etc*/);
 So as you can see, all it would really require would be calling a specific 
 function at a certain time to send a chat, ask for  a list of people online,
 ask for scores, etc.
 Again: Would this be something an audiogamer would like to use? And would 
 this be something a developer would implement in their games?
 Thanks all, I'm trying to get an idea of how popular this would be, as even 
 if I use it for my own games, if not written with multiple companies in mind
 it would not be as easy to add more game companies to the network without a 
 re-write.

Re: [Audyssey] Yet Another Question

[Kenneth Downey]

see example code. The main thing that I need to see is 3D Audio and panning. 
Think I can catch on to the rest of it, but the audio seems to become so

 by Mad Games Inc.
 
 Your name is Ted Wilson, and it is Christmas Eve again. Once again,
 you are under enormous pressure to find the perfect Christmas gift for
 your wife, your two kids, and everyone else on your holiday shopping
 list. The consequences for failure could mean the end of your
 marriage, your parents refusing to speak to you ever again, and your
 entire family will turn against you for being such a scrooge. So
 finding the perfect Christmas gift at the absolute last minute is your
 one and only chance to save face. However, your task will not be an
 easy one.
 
 In this fast action brawler you must hurry through several department
 stores looking for the items on your Christmas list as untold numbers
 of last minute Christmas shoppers block the isles, steel items from
 your shopping cart for themselves, and physically attack you for
 getting in their way. In order to accomplish your task you will have
 to use your skills as a boxer to knock out and beat up shoppers who
 are standing in your way, wrestle items away from other shoppers who
 are carrying what items you need, and will have to fight to the death
 to defend the items in your shopping cart from unscrupulous holiday
 shoppers who will try and steel items from your cart while you are
 occupied with something else. As time runs out the holiday shoppers
 will become more determined to steel your items and you will have to
 resort to gathering up weapons in around the store such as knives,
 guns, ball bats, or anything else you can lay your hands on to stop
 the hoards of crazy holiday shoppers from steeling your Christmas
 gifts. So don't delay buy the game today.
 
 Now, for a one-time offer you can buy Holiday Bash today for 75% off
 of the retail price for PC, iOS, or Mac. Plus with this offer you can
 get a Mad Games Inc. t-shirt, and a holiday coupon to save on your
 next Mad Games purchase. Offer valid until January 1, 2014.

 My staff became aware both yesterday and early this morning of some very
 despicable behavior by one member, (or x-member, this is yet to be

 We take this very seriously, and on behalf of my company, and this lists

 I have requested, and obtained the cooperation of the underlying service

 Linode LLC. Who have assured me that they are taking steps to stop this
 behavior immediately.
 
 I have also opened a ticket on behalf of Thomas Ward, who owns both Audyssey

 Hi Kelly,
 Yes I developed a Space Invaders game using the actual sounds from the arcade

 From the instructions you can tell why Ken remembered it.
 P C S SPACE INVADERS
Produced by
 Personal Computer Systems
 Written by
 Carl Mickla
  Sounds created by
 Phil Vlasak
   voice by
Cristina Downey
   Sound Editing by
  Ken Downey
 Version 1.0
Copyright 2000
 
 Thump, thump, a flash of audio peeps, chirps and blips alert you
 that one of the six columns of invaders is directly over head.  You
 hold down the fire button, chupe, chupe, chupe and three enemy
 ships are destroyed.  They move off to the right, thump, thump,
 thump, thump, and you try to get ahead of them.  Again they come
 into your sights and you let loose with another burst.  Chupe,
 chupe, chupe, the last three of six invaders in the column are
 vaporized.  With no time to waist you move right again to attempt
 to get a bead on the first column of space invaders.  You hear a
 high tone and before you can react, CA-BOOM, you run into a bomb.
 Its all over for you, and a tremendous explosion takes out your
 fortress!
 
 P C S Space Invaders is a game of awareness, concentration and
 quick reaction.  The player will have to listen to the sounds from
 the PC speaker, where information about the column at the current
 location is given.  The stereo speakers will give the player
 additional information about the position of the player and the
 invaders, the remaining columns and how far apart is the first
 column from the last.  Even the occasional UFO will enter the fray
 from the left or right side, this also will be indicated by the
 stereo speakers.  Then the player will have to blow away thirty six
 invaders before they reach the planet, and then do it again, again,
 and again.
 
 This is by far the most audio intents game Personal Computer
 Systems  has made up to date.  There are many things going on at
 once, invaders moving back and forth getting closer, the player can
 move right and left faster then the invaders, bombs are falling and
 missiles are flying.  As if that is not enough an occasional UFO
 enters worth fat bonus points and as the player reduces the columns
 of invaders they move faster.  Our help screen is there to decipher
 what the sounds represent.  Once the player understands
 what is going on, how the sounds are relaying information and after
 a short learning curve, the sounds and action become second nature
 and the player can concentrate on racking up high scores.

 Hi Dark,
 I like,
 RPG Roller By Moondog Software
 RPG Roller - The name says what it does, and it does what it says. RPG
 Roller is not a toy. It's simply the best, most powerful gamer's tool for
 rolling polyhedra dice there is. No flashy, unnecessary graphics, no cute
 sounds, no gimmicks. Just a set of powerful features designed to let you
 roll dice however you need to roll them.
 
 RPG Roller provides a number of convenient ways to quickly roll dice without
 any messing around, and a wide arsenal of features:
 
 Powerful formulas: A feature-packed die rolling formula system, including
 keeping or re-rolling high/low rolls, dice with any number of sides, the
 ability to roll different kinds of dice at once, repeating rolls, roll
 threshold counts, exploding dice, imploding dice, Fudge dice, WoD 10-again
 rolls, and more. You can even define your own dice with whatever value you
 want on each side.
 
 Quick buttons: With just a single button press you can roll 10 six-sided
 dice to compute damage from a fireball spell, or 5 eight-sided dice to roll
 hit points for a random monster.
 
 Hot buttons: Define any number of your own color-coded buttons, using
 whatever title and formula you want. Save multiple hot button setups in
 profiles and switch between them at will. Backups of your hot buttons are
 optionally stored in iCloud and shared across all of your devices. You can
 even email your hot buttons to your friends!
 
 Roll History: Look back on previous roll results, with formula and each
 individual die roll (up to even a thousand dice).
 
 Formula History: Access previously used formulas, so you don't have to type
 them in again.
 
 Roll Bar: At the top of every page is a bar with a formula box, a roll
 button, and roll result area. There is a drop-down tray to view full results
 which hides when you don't want it.
 
 Random number generator: RPG Roller offers the best random number generation

 Subject: [Audyssey] Looking for dice program for Iphone
 
 
 Well as we're discussing none computerized games I thought I'd ask this.
 
 Next week I've got a tabletop roleplay session at a different house to mine, 
 so won't be able to use gma dice on my desktop as I usually do. I also don't 
 have my laptop with me at the moment so it'd be great if there was a dice 
 program for Iphone that would role DD type dice.
 
 In particular I need it to roll 3 D20's and tell me the results of each 
 individual dice.
 
 I also need it to be as quick to use as gma dice since I don't want to hold 
 up the game while I fiddle

Well, I suppose they can judge the Anglo little bit better, but when you're 
making effing spin in circles as fast as you can and trying to lunch on the 
work go, have it gets pretty hard to go for the angle you've wanted to go for… 
My daughter says that she just shoots for the upper right corner, and that it's 
mostly just luck.

 Hi Ken.
 
 I got the farting thing, but I did wonder about the clouds, also if  a 
 sighted person can see where things are on the screen before he/she fires, 
 and thus judge the angle more exactly, then there does seem to be an access 
 inequity, eg, trial and error vs exact information for calulcation.
 
 all the best,

 Hey Dark,
 with practice you'll know the best angle to use when flicking the creature. 
 As far as steering goes, that's the great part of this game, and it's the 
 reason why I can do as well as my sighted daughter. There is no steering, 
 only farting to gain speed! That's why it's so addictive I think.

 H Charlse, I think from the description you don't actually toss the 
 phone, you just play a game where you toss the little guggle thingy by 
 doing the wind up action and letting go, just like how in Jim's golf game 
 you don't actually need to pick up your pc and swing it around to simulate 
 swinging the club :D.
 
 My question however is firstly, how do you know where your going and what 
 hitting and where to aime? and secondly, how do you stear the creature when 
 it's flying?

 Subject: [Audyssey] Catagugl: An amusing little iPhone Game
 
 
 I came across an amusing little game for iOS the other day, and though 
 it's utterly simple I can't seem to put it down. I'm getting a blister on 
 my index finger from playing so hard. No, I'm serious!
 The game is called Catagugl, and when I got it it was free. Not sure if 
 it still is or not. Anyway, once you start it, turn off VO, click in the 
 lower right corner of the screen with home button to the right, and 
 you'll hear a little drum-like sound. Then touch and hold, just for a 
 split second, until you hear another sound. Then, wind up the gugl by 
 making fast circular motions. The bigger the circles and faster you make 
 them, the quicker he gets wound up. There is a countdown. If you toss the 
 gugl right at the word go, you get a fart. Every time you pass through a 
 cloud, you get a fart. To actually fart the fart, just touch the middle 
 of your screen and he'll fart, speeding him up and giving him a little 
 more elevation. The higher you toss him, the higher he'll go, but it's 
 about distance rather than height. There are bumpers both on the ground 
 and in the sky, and you don't want to hit them from underneath. There are 
 also spikes that your poor gugl can get impailed on. Watch out! The more 
 you play, the better your aim will be.
 Anyway, the only drawback to the game is that you can't hear your score 
 in-game. you have to go to game center and hear your rank, then go to the 
 list of players and click on yoiur name, and this only gives you your 
 highest score. I've contacted the dev and asked if there is any way for 
 him to make the score spoken, but no reply thus far. Still a very good 
 little game, and of course the kids love it too.

There is also a game called Hurts Exile which is very creepy. It's not horror 
in the zombie genre, but rather deals with the horror of being trapped in a

Also, don't forget about zombies… Run.

 Papa Sangre II By Playground Publishing B.V
 You'll have nightmares for days after playing Somethin' Else's spookily 
 excellent audio-only survival horror game, Papa Sangre II. This sequel to the 
 innovative 2010 original returns you to the land of the dead in a hunt for 
 trapped memories, this time guided by the voice of Game of Thrones star Sean 
 Bean, who brings a delightful British charm to the proceedings. Papa Sangre 
 II builds well on the successes of its predecessor.
 
 Precise hearing and a solid set of headphones are needed to get through the 
 22 increasingly tough levels, all of which are presented without graphics, 
 the screen shows only a compass, two hands, and two feet during play. Papa 
 Sangre II relies upon its atmospheric three-dimensional audio design to 
 create a piercing tension so intense, it's hard to play for more than a few 
 minutes at a time. Gyroscope integration means you'll need to literally turn 
 around in circles as you play, and you'll tap alternately on the left and 
 right sides of the screen to walk forward. The controls work well, and they 
 add to the atmosphere, leaving you suitably disoriented in a hostile 
 environment where monsters lurk in the darkness and an unreliable narrator 
 eggs you on.
 
 It's all backed by stellar writing and voice acting, which are punctuated by 
 a macabre sense of humor, and frustration soon takes hold as the difficulty 
 ramps up rapidly in the second half of the game. Timing becomes critical, and

 Hey Audyssey,
 
 My name's Kwasi Mensah and you might remember me as the developer behind
 Stem Stumper. My company is getting ready to release our next game and I
 thought the people on this list would make great testers.
 
 Our new game is an iOS/Android word game called SpellStack (it's a cross
 between Connect 4 and Scrabble). It's in alpha (which means it's
 functionally near completion but we need to make it look and sound
 pretty).  You can join us on Testlfight (iOS or Android) at
 http://tflig.ht/103c0O5
 
 A brief description of the game:
 SpellStack is how you decide who your smartest friend is. It's not enough
 to have the vocabulary of a 19th century poet, but you have to have the
 smarts to make sure that your beautiful use of epicaricacy isn't
 shattered right in front of you. Combining the best parts of Connect 4, and
 Scrabble, tactically plan how to show your friends that it's not just what
 you spell but how you spell it. Steal the other player's letters, break
 their words all while defending your own. The ultimate test of smarts that
 lets you easily find friends on Facebook and Twitter for a multiplayer
 battle of wits. And if that's not enough, we come with several levels of AI
 and brain scratching puzzles to test your mettle against.
 
 Thanks,
 Kwasi

 time, but it wastes our time too and spoils the over-all feel of the game.  
 For the most part, the game comunity is nice, and the fact that it is an 
 online fps game makes it totally enjoyible and sets it apart from other 
 games.  
 
 Letsface it, there haven’t been many releases out recently, and if it wern’t 
 for people like Aprone, us blind people would still be living in the dark 
 ages of brail cards and cross words.  
 
 I’d just like to end by thanking Aprone for such a wonderful game, it really

[Audyssey] Crazy drivers

[Kenneth Downey]

I am making a new game. Imagine this. You're walking down the sidewalk. You can 
hear traffic rushing by on the left, but then, suddenly, you hear another 
noise… It's the humming of a motor… It's a parked motorcycle! You walk up to it 
and, hearing no one nearby, jump on it and start driving. You also notice that 
there are three distinct cars… Police cars, cars blaring music, and cars 
without any other sounds. You learn that the sounds boring music are the cars 
of criminals trying to get away… And for some reason best-known only to 
themselves, the police are overly enthusiastic about catching them… So it's 
your job to get them! You start out with just a crowbar, but  Destroy the 
criminals cars, and you might find better weapons… Making a job a whole lot 
easier. Every time you hit in innocent driver, you become more and more wanted… 
And the police speed up and go after you… Even though they didn't go out to the 
criminals… And eventually, they'll get you! Try Hittinger shooting a cop car 
even wants, and the game ends. So far, this game covers for city blocks, with 
more planned… More streets, more cars, people walking around, and so on. What I 
want to know is, how much would you guys pay for such a game?

Good is the worst enemy of best.

Re: [Audyssey] Crazy drivers

[Kenneth Downey]

One of the coolest things about this game is that the level is completely open 
source. That means that you'll be able to redesign whole levels and distribute 
them. Everything from the speed of the cars to their positions to weapons they 
drop to the damage they inflict when they hit you to the damage they can 
sustain are all in the map file. If you've used soundscape explorer before, 
you'll have seen the map file and how it  all works.
Also, considering the amount of territory you have to cover… For city blocks… 
And that's just for starters, there's a lot of ground to cover it'll take a 
while just to beat the one level.

 Hello Ken,
 
   So far the game sounds good, but what I would do is not worry about how 
 much you can charge, but just wright it for your liking and what you would 
 like to see in a game. Then when it's all done I would make a mp3 or 
 something like that, post it and see what people think of it then and how 
 much they would pay after they get a taste of it. or even better a demo copy. 
 Maybe of a level or two, but like I said that is just how I would go about it.
