Hi Phil, >From what I understand, the only problem for that game for blind people is that you can't tell where your asteroid is on the screen.

Rather than touching the phone you speak to it. Here is a small example: Labgoo and Yosi Taguri's Pah. A crazy voice-controlled game . Pah version 1.2, a classic sidescroller for iOS, with one big twist. Your goal is to destroy the asteroids before they destroy you. It's the first full game in the iPhone App Store to be activated by voice only. Although it's a touch screen device - touching the screen won't do anything. To play the game you use your voice in two ways. Say Aah to move the spaceship up and down by changing your volume. Shout Pah! to shoot. ----- Original Message ----- From: "dan cook" <[email protected]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, April 21, 2012 11:44 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] LWorks > completely agreed Brian. > at first i thought "me? use an iphone? never." > however i've had this one since august 2011 minus a couple months due > to a problem with the phone and i don't know how i'd ever go back now. > its just so simple in ways i cant really describe. > back on topic, I believe that ios will be a great place for accessible > gaming, look at the nightjar for example and that's just a start. > imagine where we could be in a couple of years? > > On 4/21/12, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: >> I had the same doubts about the IPhone, but after having and using an >> IPod >> Touch for six months before getting an IPhone I managed to get a ead >> start >> on learning to use the system.
