Hi Charlse.
Moon isn't exactly the embossing of print letters, it's raised symbols that
resemble print letters though there are differences.
I have seen it advertised occasionally, it's used especially for older
people who find braille or synth speech hard to learn but still want to
read a physical book.
Of course, sinse the letters are all about half an inch high, anything
written in moon is pretty huge in size, and I have no idea how you print
stuff in it, but I was just giving an example of how the leaflet question is
really more about getting the information out to as many people as possible
than about braille, yes, there should be a braille version, but as many
others as possible as well.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Moon? Is that the embossing of print letters? I haven't seen that in
ages! Is it still used?

Hi Tom.
I think this debate has slightly wandered off the mark and got mixed up
with the "Is there still a use for braille" debate which obviously some
people like Charlse have very strong opinions on.
However this is fundamentally nothing to do with whether braille is or is
not any use in general, it's a question of how to inform people about
audiogames who may not know about them.
Yes, some people who currently don't know about audiogames will read
braille, therefore there should be a braille leaflet, however some people
will read large print so there should be a large print one, some people
will prefer to read online with a synth so there should be an electronic
one, hell if anyone knows how to print in Moon I'd suggest doing it in
that as well :D.
Perhaps getting this conversation back onto how to produce and distribute
a leaflet in any and all possible formats, rather than a reitteration of
the braille debate might be helpful here.
Beware the Grue!
