Eleanor thanks for this. Any idea when your mobile games are going to start becoming available? Also, are they going to be IOS games or AAndroid games or both? On 3 Feb 2019, at 20:54, Eleanor <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:
Our games are on www.7128.com<http://www.7128.com> Since we are in the process of converting to mobile games, all our computer games are available for free from our website. Each is rated as to their accessibility so you can determine which ones are blind accessible. On 2/2/2019 6:51 PM, marcio via Groups.Io wrote: Eleanor, Where can I find the games that you made?

They would not hear anything and if they didn't see anything, they would think the computer died or something like that. I have played audio games, and we produced a number of blind accessible games, but we wanted everyone to be able to play the games we made. Having a blank screen would prevent anyone who has sound turned down from playing because they would not know the game was there.

We have faced some issues with the review team of App Store. For few days they have been demanding more and more things on our app, asking questions like, the game doesn't work (our answer: it is an audio game, so nothing happens on the screen, just turn the volume up), the visuals are not good enough (our answer: it is an audio game and that is not an important issue, but sure, we will improve the visual aspect of the main menu), and the last why there is not a back button (our answer: the back button is implemented with a double tap with two fingers as in screen reader, which is more handy than a physical back button, but yeah, ok, we will put it). So all those things have affected the launch day. We are really sorry about that. We have worked hard to get it done, but as indie developers and neweys in this field, time took us by surprise. However, we should be up in App Stores hopefully in 1 or 2 days, if they don't discover any new thing. Today we were interviewed by the Blind Abilities podcast, so if you want to listen the whole story, you could listen it there within some few days. On the mean time, if somebody wants to play it on Android, here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.myTrueSound.GoldGun Regards david On Thu, 31 Jan 2019 at 23:45, lori duncan <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: I don't see it either.

Only 4 days left to launch (31st January) and we bring you good news! We have decided to give Episode 1 of GoldGun completely for free, so all of you can enjoy and get a feeling of what is coming next. The game (read below Disclaimer) can be played on 97 % of working iOS and Android mobile devices, and will be available on App Store and Google Play. If you can't find it there, look for the direct link on our website https://www.mytruesound.com/games which will appear once the game is on the stores. Because the game is free, we hope to reach the 10000 downloads goal. This is necessary to show the game industry and some few investors that there is really huge potential for audiogames. Despite you like the game or not, if nobody downloads it we won't be able to address to them that there are millions of people wishing to play audio games. For more info about the game, read our Press Kit at https://www.mytruesound.com/presskit We appreciate you share this info in your social network and to your friends. Disclaimer: 1) We are facing some issues with Apple Store we are trying to solve at the moment. Somebody there basically seems not to understand why an audiogame doesn't require visuals, or why the menu is so minimalist. We hope this doesn't affect launch date, but everything now seems too bureaucratic. Launch on Google Play seems to be problem-free. 2) This is the first episode of the GoldGun game, which is scheduled to be composed of 6 more episodes. Each episode will be better and longer than the previous, and have more playable content. Due to the complexity of this type of game, you should expect next episode to appear within two months. However, we appreciate if you play this one already, so we can reach the 10000 downloads goal. 3) This first episode worked for us as a pilot project. It is a bit short (compared to the future ones) with about 35 minutes game play. Pilot project means that it helped us to understand better the technology we use, and to make different tests. That being said, we believe the quality of many of its parts are not yet where we want them to be. We believe you all deserve better. We will work hard to improve quality of audio already in the next episode. We appreciate You are not very hard with us, and provide us with some time to improve those issues. 4) Next episode has been already written, and the story improves pretty well. As many of you know, the main character of the game, Soren, suffered an accident which turned him blind. There is a reason on the game script to why the police department thinks he might be able to destroy the GoldGun, but few betatesters appointed that blindness is a topic which should be avoided on audio games. We understood their point and blindness as a topic to talk on our game will not be appearing at all on the future episodes. We hope you all understand we are trying to constantly improve. If you read until here, then you know most of what we wanted to tell. Thanks a lot for liking, sharing, following.
