Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne @Americandad. Thanks for trying the game.The mouse allows the user to make rapid and controlled movements, unlike the keyboard. For instance, one method of scanning a room is to move the mouse pointer around the player, which can be achieved naturally using the

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne please add an option to control by keyboard or joystick. arcade games like this demand a responsive control scheme. IMO the mouse is not Ideal for such games. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=278526#p278526

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne @Chris. In order to move you have to hold the right mouse button down. The player moves in a straight line towards the position of the mouse pointer, until it is reached.Perhaps confusingly, its actually the mouse pointer that moves towards the player, because the

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne I think I've solved the mouse issue. I guess I have to drag my finger around the trackpad to hear all the menu options. I guess I was expecting to flick around. I'm too used to touch screens, not the mouse pointer in Windows. Anyway, I've got the

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne @Chris. I just tried playing the game with my laptop's touch pad and it is perfectly playable. Some players may even prefer it. If a Mac trackpad is being used via Windows, then I understand that it's function will be the same as a basic touchpad?

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne It works because I'm running a virtual copy of Windows XP inside VMware Fusion. It should also work just fine using BootCamp since that's running native Windows on the Macintosh hardware. My question was more about the trackpad. Is it possible to play

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne @Chris. The game was intentionally designed for use with an old mouse, not a touch pad or track pad. Except for the initial menu, where movement in one of eight directions selects an option.I am blown away by the fact it works on a Mac, presumably under Wine. URL

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne Many thanks for trying the game and providing helpful feedback. I will have to think about how to describe the use of the mouse in more detail.For the moment I will just add the following notes.Each level is designed on a grid, so the rooms, walls and doors are

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne Just tried the game, and I am stumped as to how the navigation works. I can use my mouse to look around, but is it basically a virtual cursor that moves around the screen freely? I am confused. I also have a hard time telling where my character will go when I

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne

Re: Escape From Cyberdyne Hello Freeman, and welcome to the audiogames.net forums. First, congratulations for giving us a full experience with playing with the mouse. There some other audiogames that make use of the mouse, but not one that is entirely played using it, besides, perhaps
