Audio Only Game??

Post by XZodia »

If you had to make a game with nothing but audio, what would it be?

...hmmm... I guess that it wouldn't really be a test adventure anymore then...

Deaf?
You talkin a straight black screen with just audio?
Your best bet would be pattern mimicking, simon style.
Or for instance you could make a tone control system for music. If your using the xbox controller you could use the ABXY buttons for sounds then while holding down the button you control the tone with the analog.

On second hand you would have to have a menu of sorts. So I suggest musical selection, and visualizers.

I also suggest going in the opposite direction of games like DDR and GH, the drop n' pop system.

Especially stoners if I use the right sounds for it lol....

I think I took it a little to far. I was thinking of an escape like game. You are a blind schizophrenic who is trying to escape from a rundown prison. You can't trust every voice you hear. Maybe you could have touch and everything you touch would be described in your characters voice. You would move by typing into a command prompt or just hitting arrows to move so many steps in a direction.
