Hi,
In this business it is easy to get discouraged. It is hard work, time
consuming work, and for little pay.

Hi Bryan,
I talked with Philip not to long ago on another list. Currently he is
working on a dll library for game developers to help play ogg sound
effects, encrypt sound effects, and it looks like it will be a nice
little library for audio game developers.

Hi Che,
Yeah, I think you are correct in saying most blind audio gamers want
easy games they can just run and play without having to learn a complex
game like Rail Racer or even STFC for that matter.
When I began STFC I wanted a good Star Trek game that was similar to
Trek 2000, but had a much
Hello Thomas.
I think that easy games are very cool, by easy I mean not having 4
sets of 3000 keystrokes. alt and f tell you this. ctrl+t tells you
that. f tells your the direction you're facing. Fun games, I'll admit,
are usually hard, at least for me, and a game that's easy just has no
replay
Hi Che,
Like you I was once sighted, and use to play everything that I could get
my hands on. As a result I know what is possible with audio games, and
when I first got in to audio games my first thought was these audio

appreciate or don't like complexity. I always found it strange that I am
horrible at text adventure games and yet I stuck with mudding like a moth
Hi list,
On the whole complexity versus simplistic thing, I like the more complex
action games. Space invaders is all right for a while, but when you've
played a few rounds of Dark Destroyer, you've basically played all the
other ones out there.But a game like Rail Racer, for me, is the

Hi,
Yeah, I understand why you would ask for an easy to use user interface,
but sometimes that isn't always possible if the game character needs to
do allot of things.
For example a 3D FPS game may require the player to jump in any
direction, climb, walk, run , crouch, crawl, stand, etc.All in

Hi Jaliya,
I for one, agree with you that games need to be more complex than simple
puzzle, word, and battleship type games. However, there are some styles
or genres of games that have a wider apeal than others.
For example, side-scrollers have an extremely easy user interface, are
easy to make
Hi Che,
Look at it this way. You have the RR source code so if you want to
produce a Formula 1 racer you can always change the code to make a
Formula 1 racing game. Perhaps it will sell, and perhaps it won't. It's
hard to say given the poor reception Rail Racer has had so far. Though,

Otherwise I can't see to get around the obsticals and solve the puzzles

There are some tricky puzzles like you have to jump on

I like simple games but I do like a challenge but then I am a semi
hard core gamer.
I think also harder games are good for people that have no lives at all.

Hi,
Well, one of the reasons I began USA Games was to try and get away from
the shooters and simple games . However, I don't think every game I
write can be a super complex game. STFC took me two years to program,
and Montezuma's revenge looks like around 18 months or so. Where I could

Hi Shadow dragon,
I wouldn't rule that out yet. USA Games has a few long term projects in
production that will include acting, cutscenes, and the entire thing,
but they are so complex I won't have time to really cut loose on them
