Re: Should I still make a thread in New Releases for this game?
Hi.
Welcome to the forum, great to here about your game. That is a good question.
Unfortunately, at the moment the access guidelines for what is a new release are rather specific, it has to be playable by a fully blind person with the same amount of effort as a sighted person. However, feel free to post a thread in general game discussion. low vision games don't really get talked about on this forum (I don't discuss my own playing of such things myself, nor games like archaeist or To hell from Jonny from Michi nu), sinse as this site is manifestly audiogames.net, a significant number of the members are totally blind and discussion of games who's principle access (however minimally), is graphical is probably stretching the point a little..
For anyone who could however bennifit, and to get some suggestions for access maybe posting in general game discussion is a good idea, also I will try the game out myself, so thanks for leting me know.
Hop e you have fun on the forum.
Edit: Okay I've been to the site and read the descriptions of Sol and would like to try the game but am running into problems. When I go to the "download Sol now" link I'm directed to purchice the game, however when I "click here" to purchice I get a 404.
I also would like to know how exactly the access settings work in the game, ie, how do I set the various modes to turn the background off if necessary?
I usually cannot read graphical text (or at least it would need to be gigantic for me to do so), so what i've done in most console games and the odd pc game is learn menu highlighting and position, sinse I usually can see where the text is, eg, I was playing streets of rage 2 on my megadrive the other day, (yes I still have working 16 bit hardware), and I know that of the four beginning options, the options is at the bottom and the first option in options is difficulty, which can go from easy, normal, hard or hardest and is set on normal by default, and I can get out of the options menu by going down to the bottom highlighting the last line and hitting start.
On the other hand, in the Pc game Rick dangerous I just hit b to disable background and have everything play on an easy to see plane black, where as Michi Nu's To hell with Johnny actually speaks all menu text via microsoft sapi despite being a graphical game.
How does Sol work in this respect?
I'm quite interested to play the game now, given I've been a platform game fan for years (you can also find me over on the Turrican forever forums), and love games like Mega man and metroid with exploring not to mention all the original mario brothers.
