It then brings up an interesting question. Do we either 1. make the games accessible for the blind then add graphics, or get 2 the graphical parts done and try and match graphics with music, sfx and speech. The second probably is harder but better, ofcause you would have fun matching everything up. Probably you could have user contests on matching up said graphics with sounds, and all could do that. A text file with descriptions for those that have no sight and graphics for those that do have sight. Would be interesting on what the sighted and non sighted people would think of what sounds for different events were.
