Hi Ari, Quote It would also be great to hear thoughts particularly of people like Thomas on this subject, because he was of course sighted but went to college as a blind person, Thomas, did you play games for the blind with sighted students at college? End quote
At the time I was attending college I wasn't aware of any games specifically for the blind. I was currently going for my BS in Computer Science at the time so I generally spent free time creating simple Dos text games in C++ to play on my own. While sighted gamers didn't care too much for my games other blind students on campis liked copies of my games because I could put them on a floppy for them, and they could play them anywhere on campis where Jaws was installed. When I was with sighted gamers they were always interested in playing Quake, Mech Warrior, Jedi Knight, etc. All games that were hugely popular at that time, and my simple text games just didn't compare with those commercial games. So I usually sat in when they were playing or get to fire off a few shots here and there, but they mainly played and I listened. --- Gamers mailing list __ [email protected] If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.
