@RTT, the new combat system works like an arcade action game.
You need to hit up arrow to attack and damage your enemy. Obviously, enemies are going to hit back, so you'll hear their attacks on the left, right or centre, plus the voice will tell you as well. You need to dodge or block the attacks using the left, right and centre arrows.
if the attack is on the left or right, you dodge in the opposite direction, if it's in the centre, you hit the down arrow to block it. Of course, you also need to be tapping away at the up arrow to attack yourself, and if your hitting up when the enemy attacks you'll also get hit, so the challenge comes in knowing how fast your enemy attacks, and when to stop attacking and start dodging. You can also hit spacebar to drink a healing potion, and hit the control key to check on your health.

Hth.

@Nefilimul, since the game doesn't output text to any screen reader but has everything happen with recorded sound files, I don't know if NVDA support will be possible, this is however also why the game can so easily be made cross platform, as with all of audio.it's other titles.

Btw is the company called audio.it or tikon blue or something else? I'm unsure what to call them in the db.

To all that are having problems with the update;
1. Do you have Java script enabled in your browser?
2. When pressing request, or whatever the button is called that sends your request, does the line instructing you to enter your e-mail briefly change to e-mail successfully sent?
If yes to both of these questions, check both your spam folder and inbox for the address that you used to buy the game.
Please note that only the address you used to buy the game will work.
Hope this helps.
BTW, the new update makes battles vary intense.
I do wish that their could be an option for the old system as well.
Yes, I know it's vary boring, but their was a vary 80s charm to it, as it perfectly emulated the old telephone RPGs of that decade.
later!

Hay Dark, perhaps I wasn't as clear as I ment to be in that post, but I just wanted the option of using the old system, not sticking with it over the new one, as I do really enjoy it, now that I know what to do.
The game just didn't tell me how to use it, as I'd loaded my previous save.
I actually had to start a new game to get the instructions, and dreaded that all my progress had been erased, as I had no idea where the game stores its save data.
Now that I've used the new system, I do wish we had equipment so we could lessen the damage the enemies deal, or a way to get more potions, as they're now going much faster than expected do to the differing speeds of the monsters.
We also can't check stats, or use potions outside of battle either; now that I think about it.
I'm wondering, if the game had been designed with this new battle system from the get-go, would we have some of these feetures?
Later!

Believe me, I've suffered some aggravation with Inquisitor 4.. Max will make sure you get your update though, Cyco. It is the weekend and I don't believe they're in the office today. I do know that they will issue your update to you with your activation key implemented so you don't have to re enter it.
I like this new battle system a lot more. It is like Blind Gladiator, and yet different at the same time. Its it's own thing at the same time. The old battles just felt like a slap war, and the game flows better now. You aren't stuck listening to the description of every object you tab through. I do encourage people to tab a bit carefully though, cause you might miss a description or two if you're not careful. Pushing control on a Mac will re describe something if I missed it while exiting a battle I've learned. I took a trip out of town yesterday, two hours and thirty minutes round trip, and I just made it to the royal city.. So this game is three hours plus of game play with the fixes.
I also want people to keep in mind that you can't skip through some dialogs while going from room to room cause thats part of the storyline. They don't want people who may be playing for the first time to miss anything.. Thats my guess anyway.

I am noticing that after a battle the voice is on one side of the speeker. Also it would be good to be able to find out how much health the enemy has.
I like the battle system. It makes the fights challenging.

@hanif, As I said, you need to check all the consent boxes on the website, not just enter your details.
This is actually a bit of a pain, because the site gives you no indication what is wrong if you hit submit and haven't checked the boxes, and also because there are I believe two separate consent boxes to check, as well as one to receive updates.

Your best way is to use x or whatever other key your screen reader uses to go through check boxes, then fill in the fields.

To be honest I am not entirely sure why demos of all of the audio.it/tikon blue games can't just be freely downloadable files considering the demos are completely separate programs to the full game, but hay.

@Tbn, actually I like the fact that healing potions now mean something, even if I do wish they were a little more nuanced, and you can always get more as random battle awards.
We might have to wait on expansion of the system with new equipment, different types of potion etc for the next blind quest game, however it is possible max_depa could add status checking onto the menu, along with use of healing potions outside of battle, though thinking about it as savepoints also seem to restore your health this might not be quite as necessary.

Fair enough. If you did indeed get the message saying the email was sent, then there might be a problem here.

Hi everybody!
Did everyone solve their problem with the e-mail?
As someone suggested, during weekends the office is closed but here I am again.

The stereo bug is now fixed, before the new update I want to make sure that everything else is okay. Next days it will be live!

Glad that the new battle system is being appreciated!

And yes, you can't skip the messages between rooms because they are cutscenes related to the story (in fact, next time you enter the room they're not there again).

Hey, Max_Depa.

Here is some feedback. After the battles the speech needs to stay in the center instead of being on the left or the right.
There needs to be a way to check the enemies health doing a battle. On the other thread about the game.
Dark suggested a good idea. There should be a quest log to check to see what quests have been completed and which ones have not.

The skeleton can be beat, but you have to focus on dodging his blows first and striking second. It took a few try's but I got him.

No way, don't change a thing. The skeleton was the only one whom I questioned weather or not I would be able to be victorious against. I waited him out, and struck at the proper times. haha
