It will be great to make a bowling game where we can play with sighted. SOmething like to activate accesibility from options screen.

The more pins you knock over the more you hear pins knocked over, as the game has the sounds of from 0 to 10 pins knocked over in sound files.

You can skip the intro after you have either finished the game or got a game over, but not before then. As to the houses, it is the D key you need to hit once your on the roof to get an idea of the mood of the people inside, after that point Lyriel should tell you how to give a gift of an emotion to make things better, then your done with the tutorial and can begin the game propper. hth.

Here are the games I can send you: ARTHUR'S QUEST RED DRAGON KICK BOXING A 2 Z Key Search MIND PUZZLES Haze Maze BREAKOUT P C S Car racing circuit Panzers In North Africa Fox and Hounds Monopoly Any night football Here is the catalog telling you about them: PCS Games Catalog 2002 EXCITING GAMES FOR THE BLIND COMPUTER USER PCS Games is operated and maintained by blind programmers. P C S is interested in providing fast action, fun, and exciting computerized board and arcade games for the blind community. In our board games, everything is described with all the necessary details as the game is being played and any information such as position or score may be obtained by hitting a key. In visual arcade games, players aim at objects using graphics or pictures, but in our arcade games we have the player aim by using their ears to hear a tone or a series of beeps to hit a target. Thus, the impossible to play eye hand video game becomes an easy to play ear hand audio game. We believe that the same enjoyment can be achieved by a blind person playing our games as a sighted person gets playing a video game. Playing sounds through a sound card will be used to enhance and blend with the operation of our programs. Coming soon! PCS Games is working on a full Windows version of our popular Pacman game which will be tentatively called Pacman Talks. In collaboration with David Greenwood of GMA games, we will be developing games using his Windows game creating engine. Pacman Talks is the first of a long list of games we hope to develop that are self-voicing with 3d high quality multi channel sounds. to GMA Game's home page. PCS now has games playable from Windows or DOS without needing any adaptive equipment. The games are DOSS based and completely audio, all information is spoken by a human, not a synthesizer, played through your computer's speakers. All of the games have a readme text file to help you with the installation. Once a game starts, hit the f1 key to get help and instructions on playing the game. Each of the following eight games, Duck hunt, Snipe Hunt, Space Invaders, Breakout, Pack man, Red Dragon Kick Boxing Challenge, A 2 Z Key Search and Mobius Mountain, comes on a CD. Additional Games will be added to the list as they are converted from the DOS versions. Games in this format cost $40.00 If you have purchased one of the following games in DOS, we will upgrade the game to our DOS/Windows hybrid for $10 each. RED DRAGON KICK BOXING CHALLENGE. 30 OR 40 GO A FEW ROUNDS IN THIS GAME FOR FAST ACTION LOVERS. PACK MAN. 30 OR 40 EAT FRUIT AND AVOID GHOSTS. LIVE ACTION ARCADE GAME. PC S BREAKOUT. 30 OR 40 SMASH! POW! CRUNCH! BREAK THROUGH WALL AFTER WALL OF OBJECTS. A 2 Z KEY SEARCH. 30 OR 40 A CHILD CAN USE THE COMPUTER AND LEARN LETTERS AND NUMBERS. MOBIUS MOUNTAIN. 20 OR 40 A MATH, SHOOTS AND LATTER TYPE GAME. The following are longer descriptions of each game: P C S SPACE INVADERS Thump, thump, a flash of audio peeps, chirps and blips alert you that one of the six columns of invaders is directly over head. You hold down the fire button, chupe, chupe, chupe and three enemy ships are destroyed. They move off to the right, thump, thump, thump, thump, and you try to get ahead of them. Again they come into your sights and you let loose with another burst. Chupe, chupe, chupe, the last three of six invaders in the column are vaporized. With no time to waist you move right again to try getting a bead on the first column of space invaders. You hear a high tone and before you can react, Ca-Boom, you run into a bomb. Its all over for you, and a tremendous explosion takes out your fortress! P C S Space Invaders is a game of awareness, concentration and quick reaction. You will have to listen to the sounds from the PC speaker, where information about the column at the current location is given. The stereo speakers will give you additional information about your position and the invaders, the remaining columns and how far apart is the first column from the last. Even the occasional UFO will enter the fray from the left or right side. You will try to blow away thirty six invaders before they reach the planet, and then do it again, again, and again. This is by far the most audio intents game Personal Computer Systems has made to date. There are many things going on at the same time, invaders moving back and forth and down, you can move right and left faster then the invaders, bombs are falling an
Re: [Audyssey] Angel gift from Erionsoft
keys list d is for the emotions keys to do emotions are p l and j, its easy enough to see what those are. you need the control key to actually power up though up is for flight a and s are for attack and defence. left and right are left and right note since you are weak you need enemies to be in the centre before attacking. the boss well you have a sequence left and right, if you can put all your gifts round him then you in theory can kill him.

I need to know if there's ways to pause or save the game. Also, when I was listening to the angel, she said something about holding down the p key to listen to the moods of people inside the houses, but when I held down p, I couldn't hear anything but the wind and the really cool background music. Also, is there a way to stop the intro? Thanks from Lori. -Original Message- From: dark Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2014 1:56 PM To: Gamers@audyssey.org Subject: [Audyssey] Angel gift from Erionsoft Hi. To anyone not on the audiogames.net forum, this is just to let people know about Robjoy's awsome new side scroller game, Angel gift. This is probably the most cinematic audio game ever, with an awsome soundtrack and full voice acting. You play an angel trying to bring positive emotion to a small winter village (beliebve me, it is less fluffy than it sound particularly when demons get involved). The game is entirely free, and I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Download it at: http://erion.tdrealms.com/ag_102.zip Enjoy!

Re: [Audyssey] audio games popularity
Hi Scott, Thanks for the offer. Galaxy Bowling is currently on iOS and Android. I think I can make a version for the desktop accessible and go from there. I'll see what progress I can make in the next few days. Cheers!
