Possible TAG Seeker sound

Postby Surb » Tue Dec 09, 2008 3:45 am

What would people think about adding a sound to the TAG Seeker that alerts the target when they've been tagged so they can enjoy all the fun of running away from homing rockets? I was thinking maybe a distinguishable tone or the announcer could say "Tag, you're it!" or "Run!" I find I'm often tagged without realizing it, and I think it would be loads more fun if I was alerted to my impending doom.

I think that would be pretty lame :\ The game is cartoony enough as it is.

I like the idea of having sound for the tag. 'Tag, you're it' was fun :p

I agree with a sound that tells you that you are tagged, but it shouldn't be silly like 'tag you're it!' (imo).

Exactly, what torus said. Maybe some frightening beep, but not some joke.

If the sound file contained only one beep, maybe the intervall between beeps could decrease when the rockets get closer?

I guess that this is the best thing to do.

I think that's over complicating things. Would need to be coded I suppose to take into account how far they are from the player. Not necessary IMO. If it's simple and fast to code then sure go ahead whoever wants to do that, but if not, don't stress about it.
