An Evil Laugh Button
« on: September 09, 2012, 04:54:55 AM »

Name says all. It would boost the immersion of the player who is some kind of evil maniac...

No, but really, it would be awesome to pull off this incredible business deal which is one sided and then blasting through the intercoms an evil laugh

If you want an evil laugh button, you might be interested in a game called Dungeonland.

I doubt it'll happen in Starfarer.

Starfarer is supposed to be a dark and serious game. I don't see it happening.

Then mid-battle communications then. Maybe a taunt button :)

Maybe adding some kind of ways to 'Flavor' the gameplay based on what you consider yourself to be.

I'm sure the same effect can be achieving merely interfacing your own brain with your vocal chords.

If you want it to sound more ominous, do it through a toilet roll tube or - for extra atmosphere - a traffic cone.

I do my best to keep one of those on my person at all times. Especially so when playing Starfarer.
