Hi All.
My Name is Nick Adamson. Some of you may remember me from about 8
years ago on the old blind gamers list.
I'm a blind software engineer who's been out of touch with the blind
gaming community for ages but I'm back and after some software
testers for a new game I'm working on.
For quite some time I've been wondering if it would be possible to
write a Tetris like game but played on a Braille display. A month or
so ago I stopped thinking about it and Started coding Dotris. This
is a windows based game that I'm working on in the little spare time I've got.
So if you've tested software before and enjoyed the opportunity to
shape the direction of the game or have never done game testing but
would like to give it a go then I want to here from you.
For now I'm looking for a smallish group of people, You must have a
Braille display of at leased 12 characters, a windows XP PC or
better, confidence in using the computer and a couple of hours of spare time.
If you want to get involved then please send me details of which
make model and size Braille display you have and which version of
windows and screen reader your using along with your email address.
Please send the details to me using the contact us link at www.ndadamson.com.
I want to keep the list of testers relatively small and manageable
but still test on the widest range of software and hardware
possible. this means I may not ask everyone I here from this time.
I'm also planning to release the game as donation-ware. The idea is
that, once complete, the software can be downloaded at no charge but
the user will be strongly encouraged to make a donation of what ever
they think the game is worth to a charity I'm going to support. I've
not yet decided which charity but am looking in to those that
promote the learning and use of Braille. with this in mind there
isn't going to be any payment for testers made available, just my
gratitude, credits in the documentation and the opportunity to work
on a pretty unique game.
I've not been around for ages, are there many games that use a
Braille display as the main feedback method?
Thanks for your time.
Nick.
