Re: [Audyssey] The next issue of Audyssey

No I must admit unless a game has any form of replayability then I wouldn't bother with paying for it either. If you can put a game down, leave it for a good while and then ccome back to it, then it has replayability. Otherwise it doesn't does it. That's why I don't play so many side scrolers any

Hi Jason, Sorry to hear that your team lost again, but it sure sounds like it was an exciting game. You know going into overtime and all. I have not yet played my playoff game or games as the case will end up being. grin BFN Jim If I'm over the hill, why is it I don't recall ever

Re: [Audyssey] The next issue of Audyssey

There are plenty of ways to add longevity and replay value to sidescrollers. The genre of game doesn't demand they be linear or devoid of randomness. You just have to keep in mind the prospect of the computer setting up impossibly hard challenges and build in rules conserning what can be placed

Re: [Audyssey] The next issue of Audyssey

Hi Michael, in the case of side scrollers, I think you are correct with the idea of hidden sections etc, but I'm not sure about random generation of levels. personally, I'd love to see a full exploration style game, similar to the Metroid or turrican mainstream series, involving a huge amount

Re: [Audyssey] board games

Hi Dark, Candy Land is one of our popular childrens games here in the USA. It was created in the 1940's by a woman named Eleanor Abbot. As I understand the legendary story the woman had suffered most of her life from the results of having had Polio so she had gone to work for a childrens

Re: [Audyssey] Monte score

Hi, This brings up a small request. On insane, it's easier to make a successfull jump without burning a sword when you do not want to, because the monsters are moving faster. I also think faster moving monsters make it easier to jump over monsters because there is less of a chance that you

Re: [Audyssey] Monti4 difficulty and keys

Hay Tom that' sounds like a good idea just charge for multiple keys instead of the full price of a game for multiple computers. I think all the game developers should consider this idea. I think che's idea of having tornaments for railracer is a good way of winning a key as well. If we can

[Audyssey] Replayability, accessibility, and such

Hiya, This is just my two cents on replayability of games and the like, a topic which has been brought up recently on here. Dark, I agree with your assessment about interactive fiction. Unfortunately, there's little replay value in most of it, though to be fair I am not quite sure what could

Re: [Audyssey] The next issue of Audyssey

Hi Darren, I have a couple of questions for you as well as a couple observations/comments. First, I was wondering on a skale of 1 to 10 how does Montezuma's Revenge rate in the replayability catagory? I know it is a side-scroller,but I have done quite allot to try and give it better than

Re: [Audyssey] The next issue of Audyssey

Hi Michael, Exactly. Montezuma's Revenge is what I would call a classic side-scroller since the purpose was to emulate originality. If I were however going to invent my own side-scroller I can think of several ways in which to randomize the elements some. One way is to create several different

Re: [Audyssey] Monte score

Hi Karl, Actually, as of Beta 4 all four skill levels use the same timer rate for the movement of game objects. This was changed in order to cut down on the use of extra swords, torches, and so on. For the most part it fixed the problem, but once and a while the problem appears, but is no

Agreed! it's awsome! I'd also considder replaying Dreamhold, Babel, and LAsh as well, sinse they were all also great in the plot department. In fact, on a related discussion point, lash was designed specifically to be replayable, sinse there were a number of possible endings to the game, some
