Hi Charles,
Yes, exactly. There is a crack in the wall I want to say level 4 where
you can pick up a armor upgrade not available to say level 5 if you
miss it. Its been a while so I forget where exactly where it is, but
there are little secret places like that in the game that are easily
missed an
Like getting through cracks in walls? I had never encountered that sort of
thing in a game before.

Hi Charles,
Yes, I do tend to work on other projects besides the major ones.. For
a while I was working on MOTA exclusively but discovered that I can't
focus on any single project for that long without going a bit crazy.

Hi Charles,
That would definitely be a good reason. Shades of Doom is the type of
game you need to spend a couple of hours with per sitting to get good
at. If you are the kind of gamer who sits down, plays for 15 minutes,
and walks away you'll never get far with Shades of Doom just because
you nee
I think the only reason I haven't beaten Shades of Doom is that I just
haven't sat down and played it for long stretches of time. As to why, I
don't know, because I do like the game.

No problem.
Just glad that I could help you outl.
Tom said that he has checked his mail and the letter that I've shipped
hasn't bounced back yet.
So you should be hearing from Tom shortly.
Check out Blast chamber for a good thrill. GRIN.
It puts classic pipe to shame.
But that's just my opinion.
Hey Ron,
Thanks, I appreciate it.

Well, honestly I personally can't relate. I came from a completely
mainstream gaming experience before I went blind and so I have a
different perspective on this. I didn't play as many text adventures

Hi Dark,
Exactly. I think that more than anything else is what I'd like to see
in more audio games. Even if someone creates a walkthrough or gives
away some hint or clue how to beat a game there is still some
challenge required to actually beat the game. Of course, as with
everything else I suppos
Hi Dark,
Yes, agreed. I thought something similar about Castaways. Increasing
the number of jobs and character classes would make for a more
interesting game all around.
Something else I thought would be cool is instead of building one ship

Hi Dark,
Yes, definitely. I think Shades of Doom could use for a few more areas
to explore, bonus levels so to speak, as well as a couple of bonus
enemies now and then. Still one thing I think Shades of Doom does well
is while it has some sort of complex mazes it also offers a navigation

Hi,
I've been trying to contact you for weeks now. I've emailed

let me put my two cents in.
First of all, I'd like to see a few more modifications with Swamp. For
example, right now, the default weapons have skills associated with
them, but the newer ones don't.
Then, you have questions like this: if there are now weapon classes,
couldn't you have class-based
The sighted games all come with install guides, because they have to
make sure they have enough graphics to run the game. Some of the
newer games out there require dual video cards or they won't even install.

Hi Tom.
As you know I'm an exploration fiend, so the maze aspect of shades of doom
is very much something else I like about the game, aprticularly given that
David did a great job with ambient sound sources in the maze which give it
an interesting background to explore too even though the game
Hi Dark,
Agreed. At this point releasing something complete would be a step in
the right direction. You'll get no argument from me on that.
One of the things I think that makes Shades of Doom such a good game
is that its fully accessible, but it is also difficult too. On the
higher difficulty lev

That is totially true about walkthroughs, and indeed something I'm more
