To joseph,

I wrote Entombed. A rogue-like RPG game. It was a lot of fun to make and
remains one of my favorite projects.

To Scott,

My mobile games aren't accessible, but I'm curious if I could make them
that way. The only one I think might be doable is Galaxy Bowling. It's a
bowling game with many modes and variations. You'd need some way to know
where any remaining pins are and what your score is. Are there any existing
bowling accessible bowling games? How did they manage it?

Thank you,
Jason
