Add Sound effects
« on: February 23, 2010, 01:45:47 am »
Wait! Wait! I have a good reason. We need sound effects for this simple reason:

The Sacriphone. A musical instrument which has this simple operating principle: each note is the dying screams of a different creature being sacrificed to the Blood god. Of course, a purely mechanical version could be built now, but it wouldn't be the same to not be able to hear it.

To the tune of "mary had a little lamb": AHHH AHHH AHHHHHH OUGH, GHYAAA IEEE ARGH, AHHHHHH nnoOOOO AHHHHH...
Engineer: "Bah, the elf chute's firing to slow. Can't they do anything right?"

Nah, merely a request for more unique dieing screams.
A musical instrument to replay them would be somewhat out of character, though.
This should rather be implemented as a player-built dwarftech application, including a series of traps or appropriate doomsday mechanisms that kill the various creatures in the proper cadence.
