Soundscape is an experimental exploration game where you must navigate and exit an unknown area using only your hearing.
Beeps indicate distance to the obstacle in your front (high pitch=near, low pitch=far) and distance to exit (fast beeps=near, slow beeps=far). Bumping on walls should be avoided and it's signaled by a bump sound.
Time didn't help so I included just one level (a pretty hard one - try to finish it!). Anyways it is playable and serves as a proof of concept.
Controls (first person style):
Up arrow - walk forward
Down arrow - walk backward
Left arrow - turn left
Right arrow - turn right
I used Flash to make it (my first time with Flash so I had to learn it), Paint to draw the map and a camera to record the bump sound. Beeps are procedurally generated.
