It was sort of annoying having to use the arrow keys with my left hand and the mouse with my right.\r<br\/>Other than that, I would say absolutely keep developing this. I can think of so many neat directions to take this.  It would be so neat to have directional sound when you're in the Hear mode, and you actually have to listen.  Ahhh I just want to see more of this!  lol"},{"author_name":"Seigeengine","author_uid":"24201","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 5:37am","epoch":1387258320,"text":"That's sort of interesting?

You are blind, and you can only hear, or feel, or smell at one time. You don't know what happened to you, you only know you want to escape. \r\n\r\nA different take on puzzle solving. You may like this if you like adventure games and exploration. Unfortunately I could only implement one room, so it is very short. \r\n\r\nWhile moving blindly in the room, you will hear and smell and touch different stuff. Some is useful for escaping, other is not. You have to experiment and find out what stuff you can interact with.\r\n\r\nReccomended for those who like an intriguing atmosphere and exploration. Not reccomended for those expecting lots of action and flashy stuff.\r\n\r\nMade with Game Maker.\r\n\r\nEDIT: As requested, I added suport for WASD keys for movement.","title":"Synesthesia"}
