Re: [Audyssey] New Experimental Audio Game: Underwater

2007-03-31 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Shaun,
I think the problem is the average blind Joe out here doesn't understand 
the interaction between DirectX and the mouse. In a game such as RR or 
Underwater the application gets total control of the mouse while the 
application is in the foreground.
Since the app controls what the mouse is doing while the app is in the 
foreground you can reassign the buttons to send a jump or fire button 
down event to the application rather then a left or right click event to 
the operating system. You can track it's x and y location in the app and 
take actions based on that coordinates. While your game is running 
Windows doesn't know the mouse is there.
A bit techy, but while in games a mouse can act differently than in 
Word, Excel, whatever.

I like the mouse.
I thought at first that mices were for visual things only, when I realised the 
blind can make the mouse do what they want, well.
Its good for an inexpensive gaming controler, better in some cases than a 
joystick or ffb pad, its small  and portable and real cheap
and most computers have mice.

Try getting a USB mouse. Those work better than the touchpads. Touchpads

Hi Richard,
Yeah, several people had the same argument when Alchemy put out it's 
mouse playing demo and when Che put out his RailRacer betas. "I can't 
see, and I can't use the mouse."
I have no idea where this eronious assumption came from, but I just wish 
people would try things before saying it can't be done without even 
trying it first.
Sooner or later I plan to add mouse support to Monty, and I am sure many 
will say the game is unplayable because of some eronious sassumption we 
can't use mice.
Using mice in games is fast, responsive, and a nice handy little input

Hi Jason,
You don't need to see to use the mouse in Underwater or anyother 
acccessible game using the mouse. Understand that the way the mouse is 
program to operate in games is completely different from a standard app.
A mouse in games is just like a keyboard or another device.

Re: [Audyssey] New Experimental Audio Game: Underwater

2007-03-31 Thread Phil Vlasak
Hi Richard,
I've tried to download Underwater.exe five times and in all five I have not 
been able to get the whole download.
I usually get only 100 KB
The web page says it is 12 MB.
There may be many trying to get it at the same time so could you post it to 
another mirror site?

My proble is that my laptop has one of those little touch pads serving as 
the mouse. Oh well, might still try it sometime...

Re: [Audyssey] New Experimental Audio Game: Underwater

2007-03-30 Thread jason
Hello Richard, is there anyway with this new game that we can use the arrow 
keys to move the sub instead of the mouse, and can we have a key stroke that 
turns on the sonar, and a key stroke to pick up the treasure?
I am totally blind and there for I cant see where the mouse goes or does the 
mouse only move with the game?
I was just wondering if that could be done so we can playit as well.
I mostly use the keyboard not the mouse.
Sincerely,
Jason

do you need more testers, if so I would be happy to test if that would speed 
things up.

Re: [Audyssey] New Experimental Audio Game: Underwater

Hi,

No, unfortunately not. Development should take another two weeks or so (we 
can only spend one day a week on it now since the project is officially 
ended already) but then we still need testing. Luckily we have been 
approached by a fellow game design student of the lead programmer of Audio 
Game Maker and he's willing to continue work as an intern on Audio Game 
Maker over the next few months if that is possible.

So the plan is to finish AGM as quickly as possible, test it on major bugs 
and issues, get it out as a BETA so people can finally toy around with it 
and then using your feedback improve AGM. That's the good scenario. The bad 
one is, if we can't fix major bugs and issues in time, the testing will take 
longer and the intern will have less time to improve AGM with your feedback. 
Currently we have some performance issues, mainly resultin in that you might 
need quite a computer now to run AGM - not one older than 2 or 3 years I 
guess - or the games made with AGM. But we're still working on that.

That's about it. Don't worry, we're busy with AGM every week!

Greets,

Richard

[Audyssey] New Experimental Audio Game: Underwater

2007-03-30 Thread AudioGames.net
Hi,

Amongst other things, Sander and I (of AudioGames.net) also teach a seminar 
"Game Audio" to game design student at the Utrecht School of the Arts. Here we 
have given the students the assignment to develop a small audio game. I say 
small since they only have several weeks to come up with a game concept, create 
the sounds and program and test the game. In a few weeks time the students will 
present their work and the results will be published in the Experimental Audio 
Games section at AudioGames.net PlayCenter:

http://www.audiogames.net/playcenter/index_exp.php (so here you can download 
all games)

Three students have already finished their (mouse-controlled) audio game 
entitled "Underwater". Here's a description:

*quote*
In this audio game you command a submarine and are exploring the deep sea. With 
your sonar you navigate, and locate treasures.

Use the mouse to move to the left and right.
Press the right mouse button to move forward.
Press the left mouse button to use your sonar. Now listen carefully!
When you hear a low ping back, it means there is a wall. When you hear a high 
ping back, it means there's treasure! When you get near a treasure you will 
hear it tinkle. Find them all and dive deeper in to the sea!

But be warned... There are rumors of sea mines in the sea. Some say you only 
hear them by a beeping sound... so watch out!
*quote end*

The students are very interested in your feedback and comments and tips to 
improve the game in the remaining time. You can download "Underwater" through 
this link:

 http://www.drawingnightmare.com/games/Underwater.exe

Since the students are not a member of this list, please post all your comments 
and tips in the "Underwater"-forum thread at the AudioGames.net forum:

http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?id=1203

This way other students might also benefit from your feedback. 

Have fun!

Richard
