Why is it hard to play?  I know its a difficult game, and you need to 
somehow keep the layout in your head.  I used to play it many decades ago, 
and I think I had to draw out a map.

Re: [Audyssey] The old text game known as adventure or colossal cave

[Charles Rivard]

Oh, good Lord!  I haven't played that game in ages of ages.  I wonder how 
well using dictation would work?  I'd be willing to give it a good try if 
you can get it going.  When using it on a DOS machine, (see how long ago 
that was?), I never did finish the game.

Its probably not a good idea to use jaws with sod, because of its keyhooks.
You'll end up getting laggy responses, especially on the arrow keys.
My advice would be to either use sapi or builtin speech, and turn off jaws

Hi,

I'm having a problem with Euro Fly.  It doesn't really tell me what to
do for the tasks.

How should I go about turning down the sounds of the com radio noises
and the music?

I can't hear what sapi is saying.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

flights and land successfully and also I have accomplished 21 of the tasks 
so far in the game and I am very addicted to it and I think Eurofly will 
get better with the help of others of course meaning recording of streams 
for airports accurate maps of airports and more planes as well so I think 
as this game is updated periodically the game will be better and also 
translators are probably needed for translating the instructions so I 
think this game will become our successful flight simulator, now we just 
need a truck simulator and a bus simulator and have both simulators be 
constructed just like Eurofly and the new train simulator game. I wish 
someone will be able to create a Maden football simulator and a MLB 
baseball simulator I love all the games that are created now, and they 
will become better in the future also we need more accessible games for 
the droid as well, there seems to be more games accessible for the iphone 
platform and we droid users feel left out when you only make accessible 
games for one platform in the phone world.

Hi All.
After months of development and testing I'm pleased to announce that

Tube sim has been designed to be as realistic as possible using

So grab the dead man handle. Close your doors and let's go

Both an installer and portable version of the game are available.

Happy driving.

Stephen,.
This games simulates reality and you cant just exit reality.
Escape pauses the game if you need to take a break for any reason.
If you were driving a real train you wouldn't be able to just leave it in
the middle of a tunnel and they have done the same thing in Tube Sim.
To end a run early, hit F7 and you radio the control room asking for relief.
When you open the doors at the next station your shift finishes and your
taken to the main menu where you can exit the game.

intentional?

See they mention that they've launched a kickstarter campaign, but,
either way, after the update this morning, gave it a quick run again,
with two of the included games - archery, and hunting - and, either way,
it seems like maybe they've cleaned up interface, or something - both
games worked nicely/fine/easily, and, only thing did before anything
else was go into settings, and turn down music volume, and ambient sound
volume to 5 out of 10, leaving the sound effects, and voice volume set
to 10, but, will, if I remember, play around with the other games
included in this some more now:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AUT.AudioGameHub=en

And, yes, it will tell you to turn off accessibility - as in, suspend
talkback - when you launch it, and, that is necessary.

Description of App:
Remember the old text-based lemonade stand simulators? Now you can enjoy
a modern take and run your own lemonade stand on your iPhone!
Buy cups, lemons and sugar to fill your inventory. Set your price and

Other unexpected events may pop up randomly like bees taking your sugar

Why are there no other audio versions of the new Harry Potter book except 
for this one?


Harry Potter and the Cursed Child audiobook released on RNIB Library
2:30 PM EDT, AUGUST 16, 2016
Hypable
by ANDREW SIMS

A Harry Potter and the Cursed Child audiobook has been released on the

Royal National Institute of Blind People's Talking Books library, for
those in the
U.K. with sight loss.

Many Harry Potter fans have been hoping for a Cursed Child audiobook

since the script book was released on July 31. While there are no
plans for a wide
release, an audiobook version of the eighth story does exist
exclusively on the RNIB Library.

Braille and large print editions of The Cursed Child are also
available on the RNIB Library.

A rep for J.K. Rowling tells us that the Cursed Child audio edition in
the Talking Books library is "available to their members in specific,
secure formats
and is standard practice for all their publishing in order to make a
book as accessible as possible."

A sample of the audio edition can be found
on RNIB's website.
From listening to it we've learned that this book has one narrator
acting out all of the characters. The script book is read exactly as
it is printed,
with the name of the character being read before each line is said,
and the narrator puts some emotion into each line.

Rowling's rep tells Hypable that outside of the book on RNIB, there

"are no plans currently for the general release of an audio edition of

the script book."

The lack of a wider release for people outside of the sight loss

community may have to do with the fact that the script book only
exists because of the
play. If an audio book were to be released to the masses, it could
affect ticket sales for the play, since an audiobook of a stage show,
if done properly,
would likely have multiple narrators to cover all the voices.

The audiobooks for the original Harry Potter series were narrated by
Stephen Fry in the United Kingdom and Jim Dale in the United States.

Re: [Audyssey] dice rolling using an iPhone

[Charles Rivard]

You don't need an app to roll dice on an iPhone.  If you are rolling two 
dice numbered 1 through 6, just tell Siri to "Roll the dice."  If you want 
higher numbers on the dice, there are several ways to do it.  The lengthy 
way would be to tell Siri to "Pick a number from 1 to" and then give the top 
number.  That would be for one of the dice.  Or you could tell Siri to "roll 
a 20 sided dice."

The only reason that XP, an excellent and stable operating system, is dead

At Dark,

No idea what you mean by Windows 7 being buggy, it is far more stable
than XP ever was.

I liked Windows XP back in the day, but by the time 7 came out, it was
showing its age.

And no, even using older developer kits, software developers are under
no obligation to support computers using dead (and that is what
Windows XP is, dead) operating systems. Again, if you want to use it,
I do not begrudge you that, but just keep this fact in mind.

Also, curiosity compels me to ask, but what are you working on a doctorate

Nope, everything has been tried. Folder lists do not display probperly,
downloads are partially completed, and lets not talk about  that bloated
messmicrosoft outlook, frankly it is a pile of shite.

Since there are compatibility issues I will probably get a win 10 machine
laqter this year (if I've got to have a crappy os it might as well be the
latest crappy os), though since I need ms office for my phd thesis I
can't
do that  now, plus there's moving house and various other things to

Still, I'd much! rather have xpp and really i don't like the fact that

software compatibility in the process.

Re: [Audyssey] windows xp, was Re: VGStorm Presents Manamon, a new fully featured RPG!

[Charles Rivard]

When I finally scraped enough money together to buy a refurbished Windows 7 
desktop PC, I was having huge problems with the eMail client that was on it, 
so I called the help desk for the visually impaired.  I was immediately told 
that Windows Live Mail was no longer being supported.  I told the tech that, 
while this is nothing against you personally, your company's policies of no 
longer supporting their software is the biggest boatloat of unnecessary crap 
that I have encountered.  I've had a machine for 4 days and you don't 
support the software?  He suggested that I migrate to Windows 10.  I let him 
know that until Microsoft made the Edge browser and the eMail client that 
comes with it accessible, I was not interested.  I feel that it is not up to 
a third party screen reader developer to make the operating system usable. 
It is up to the operating system developer.  I feel more strongly against 
Microsoft than you do, and have felt this way for a long time.

At Dark,

No idea what you mean by Windows 7 being buggy, it is far more stable
than XP ever was.

I liked Windows XP back in the day, but by the time 7 came out, it was
showing its age.

And no, even using older developer kits, software developers are under
no obligation to support computers using dead (and that is what
Windows XP is, dead) operating systems. Again, if you want to use it,
I do not begrudge you that, but just keep this fact in mind.

Also, curiosity compels me to ask, but what are you working on a

I would like the opinions of those who have worked with this particular app

Hi Lisa.

Yep, the party pack is cool. It comes with three tables, old man stanley's
house, Dynaman revenge of Shockra, and extreme wild west.

Extreme wild west is fun, it's a bit like the classic wildwest table but
with a lot moe random stuff such as the ability to play esp whoopass if your
ball goes into the saloon.
Stanley's house is very cool, especially old Stanley's various taunts and
rage and the amount of random stuff you can go, like phoning different
numbers and such.
Dynaman is probably the trickiest, but great for being one huge battle
against an evil electric villainess.
Actually this is making me want to install the games on one or other of my
machines and play them again :D.

Hth.

The only issue is if you have the party pack, the wildwest table on esp

I really wish they'd make some more party packs.

Good ideas.
The game is set in the Summer between Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince, after
the gilly weed was taken.
However I will add it to Snape's office, as I'm sure he would have
replenished his supply of it by then.

I could add more food to the kitchen, but it can't be constantly replaced
or the player could jus eat and eat, gaining tons of extra magical energy.

Hi.

Canary creams are based on custard creams, which are a fairly common
biscuite type in Britain.

The best way of describing them is similar to orios in the states, ie, 
two
biscuites stuck together with creamy stuff, accept that the biscuites 
are

smaller and oblong,  are a bit more crunchy, and the cream stuff in the
middle isn't as sweet or quite as thick in orios. I'm not sure where the
"custard" part comes from, though the biscuits are a light colour, 
though

not quite yellow like custard.

hth.

Borbons  are awesome!

I was trying to describe them to my American soon to be inlaws the other
day, of course in the states the closest thing are Orios which are okay,
though the cream is not half as good as the coco stuff in borbons :D.

All the best,

Hi.

Canary creams are based on custard creams, which are a fairly common
biscuite type in Britain.

The best way of describing them is similar to orios in the states, ie, two
biscuites stuck together with creamy stuff, accept that the biscuites are
smaller and oblong,  are a bit more crunchy, and the cream stuff in the
middle isn't as sweet or quite as thick in orios. I'm not sure where the
"custard" part comes from, though the biscuits are a light colour, though
not quite yellow like custard.

hth.

[Audyssey] interactive fiction on the iPhone

[Charles Rivard]

I have decided to give interactive fiction games a try.  I got a library of 
them from the app store for my iPhone 6.  While the app is free, it was 
indicated in an article at

www.applevis.com

that the first book is free and you then order the others as inapp purchases 
based on whether you like the first one, so I figure that I have nothing to 
lose.

Having said this, I hope the following questions aren’t dumb.  (I grin as I 
post these.)  Which book is the first one and how do these books work?  Any 
suggestions on which book to try, as a beginner, if I do have a choice?

The app is listed on my phone as “delight games”.  Any steerage in the right 
direction is appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Firstly, your post had more to do with the baseball game rather than the

Hi, guys. I am also one of those who like JIm's games. Some time
before he passed away i suggested him a few ideas about his baseball
game and a football game. Actually if there was some one ore a few
people who could take it over and make his games better and more
interesting i'd be ready to pay for it. For example i would like to see
the baseball game with a full season schedule. with team rosters and
different proposals such as players moving from team to team. With all
the player stats through out the season. I know that there is one
baseball game called bari bari baseball that has a season mode, but i
think it is very poor in action and a game pley along with sounds. Of
caurse I would add something in pitching the ball in Jim's game so that
it would somehow depend on human player. Maybe would be cool to add a
few mor plays containing double plays and at least one with a tripple
play though it is a rare  play in a game of baseball. Of caurse more
funny commercials in between the enings would also make  it more fun to
play and go through. I myself am not a programmer, but if i was i would
have tried to do some thing with all that. I also had ideas on the
footbal game. It is pretty bad that it is not depended on human player
as much as it could have been. It is not that funny to just pick a pley
and listen to what is happening. Wouldbe nice to put it the way so that
human player could also participate in game play action. But even if not
it would be very nice to add more plays, to have penalties and injuries.
To add more croud sounds, boos, and all that. Againg if there is
someone or a group of people that would do it i am first in line to
donate some cash in to it. I am sure not MR. job's child and don't own a
trans national corporation, but could probably do something about
putting a couple of dollars in to it.

Hello.

Jim was one of my best friends that I spoke to on a daily bases.
One of the things that he mention is that he never want his games to
cost, because developing accessible games for the blind was his passion.
Yes it would be neat to add a few features to his games.
However I think his games need to stay the way that he left them.

It would be a slap to Jim if anyone change them any form or fashion.
One of the things that he told me is that if he passes on, he wants his
games to stay the same and to be able to be play for years to come.
I thought highly of Jim Kitchen.

Stupidly enough you can't return the book until you need another book from

If I remember rightly you need to use the candle with the camp fire in bill

Hi everyone, I know Bavisoft games has vanished never to be seen again,

of me figure out how to get the gun from Lilly's house.  I've tried 
everything from inspecting the desk to using the desk and trunk, but 
nothing works. I've taken the hook from the closet, but when I look 
inside it the guy tells me it's empty.  I keep heading back to the shop 
too, and have already sprayed one set of insects and gotten the pieces 
of wood to use on the vampires, but now I'm stuck.


I know there was an audio review of the game by Kelly Sapergia, but I 
can't seem to access it from the website, and it's not showing on 
Kelly's site either.  I'd like to hear that review again, so am 
wondering if anyone here might still have a copy of it?

I've gotten lots of negative feedback for games that require 2D or even 
3D sound, since a reasonable (i'm not sure how big, but they are vocal) 
part of the users have an audio issue, and they only way they can play 
the 2D games is via blue tooth speakers separated by several feet, so 
instead of using their ears to locate the sound, they turn their head so 
their good ear can detect which speaker the sound is coming from.


And many people complained if ear buds are a requirement of the game.

Of course there is an even simpler way, a way all blind people know by 
the time we get out of high school, the coordinate system. You could

A final method, and I am not sUre which 3D engine Bryan Smaart used for

Get this fun game produced by Kid Friendly Software.  As far as I know, it’s 
the first pool game that a blind person can play, and it is for iDevices.  
Choose from different tables and games such as eight ball, fifteen ball, nine 
ball, and so on.  Locate the ball you want to sink and the pocket you want to 
sink it into, then swipe to shoot.  Be careful.  Don’t scratch!  Totally 
Voice-Over friendly and loads of fun.  Get it from the app store, now, and be 
sure to use thi in-app purchases so the fun won’t stop.

The only reason it isn't supported is because Microsoft quit supporting it.

Well to be honest xp is unsupported, it may be good for olderoffline use
and some older programs.
But xp will continue until it is not viable for others to use or develop it.
Its not safe really to run xp on the net or any network anymore anyway.
So even if you are a heavy xp user you will need a modern something to
continue to use it via clients.

Re: [Audyssey] For those using Dropbox on older computers

[Charles Rivard]

The older computers could still use Dropbox if no changes were made to 
Dropbox.  No changes had to be made, because it worked just fine on the 
newer machines, as far as I know.  The reason most often given for dropping 
support for XP is that, "You've got to keep up with today's technology."  To 
me, this is lame.  Whatever happened to backward compatibility?  The only 
reason we "have to keep up with today's technology" is because the producers 
of hardware and software and web sites are forcing us to do so by making 
their sites and products unaccessible with what we choose to continue using 
and which we are comfortable and familiar with.  For instance, in order to 
use Microsoft's Windows 10, which has a web browser that is not able to be 
used with screen readers, you need the latest version of JAWS, which some 
people cannot afford.  I would rather stay with what works than forage into 
what isn't as reliable and dependable.  Apple, on the other hand, allows 
older technology such as iPhones to work with even the newest firmware.  The 
4S will be phased out, but it has been around, and it still works with the 
latest firmware update.  Why don't others follow the same philosophy?  They 
would keep their share of the market, and probably even increase their 
customer base if they did.

[Audyssey] game sound thoughts - Re: Blindfold Barnyard, some thoughts

[Charles Rivard]

I don't care much for ear buds.  A headset is better.  Both provide the 
pinpoint accuracy needed for playing some games.  However, I very much 
prefer not to use either.  Speakers sound the best, and allow for free 
movement.  In fact, I will even go as far as to say that I would prefer 
listening to an iPhone 6 rather than using ear buds.  This is a personal 
choice.  Blindfold Breakout is an excellent game, but cannot be played 
without something in or over your ears.  Blindfold Pinball needs no such ear 
coverings or plugs.

single fingertip, and the player would customize both measurements before 
starting the first game.
Of course there is an even simpler way, a way all blind people know by 
the time we get out of high school, the coordinate system. You could 
simply say, sheep at E4 and boom, it would be very easy to find.
A final method, and I am not sUre which 3D engine Bryan Smaart used for 
Ear Monsters, but animals would be extremely easy to find without much 
vocal feedback

These are the ways I know for giving info about things on a screen.

Yes.  That's the purpose of, notice the name?, blindfold road trip with 
friends.  The one that you want, in which you play against one of random 
computer opponents is still available in the app store.  It is blindfold 
road trip.  Notice the name difference.  HTH.

Blindfold Road Trip is an fully accessible audio card game where you try 
to

to be the first player to travel 1000 miles.



You and a friend are given a handful of cards.

Your turn begins by drawing a card from the deck, and then either playing
the card, or discarding the card.

The objective of the game is to play distance cards, such as 100 miles, so
that you travel

a total of 1000 miles.

You also want to prevent your opponent from playing distance cards, by
stopping him by damaging his car, or slowing him down. Your opponent will
try to do the same to you. Both of you can play cards to fix damage caused
by your opponent.



You play against other people via Game Center, or other people in the same
room as you.



Blindfold Road Trip with Friends was suggested by several blind gamers who
enjoyed Blindfold Road Trip.

Re: [Audyssey] why i build the games the way I do

[Charles Rivard]

To my way of thinking, the more platforms a game is available on, the 
better.  I'm not sure where you're coming up with the fact that the games 
are from the days of DOS, other than the fact that they use text, which is 
what an RPG uses, right?  If that is so, then a game from the days of DOS 
isn't such a bad idea, seeing as this is what you want.

I agree.

Alsoo as I said, building an rpg doesn't take as long as you would think,
heck most of the mechanics as I've said are basic dice ones.


I also suspect an rpg would necessarily sell more copies sinse it is a type
of game not available elsewherein the community, while we have a huge amount
of traditional and word games, plus of course, rpgs are far more open to
expanttion, not to mention being far more likely to be bought by the sighted
public (nano empire and a dark room both did hugely well).

I do like what's been done thus far, but I m finding it a little frustrating
that we're still seeing roughly the same amount of complexity from dedicated
developers of games intended for blind people we were seeing ten years ago,
or heck back to the dos days.

All the best,

Spelling may be difficult if people are using only Voice-Over unless the

other words that sound like "to"?  Without knowing which word was provided, 
they won't know which two to give as answers because all three sound alike.

Thanks for all your input.  I will send your comments around to the
testers, and get their feedback, and implement those ideas.  I haven't
done much with breakout or hopper recently, since I'm building pool /
billiards.
I've been getting several requests for both snakes and ladders, and for
more trivia games.
There are already slews of trivia games that are accessible, and I
imagine snakes and ladders would get boring quickly.
So,  I was thinking of combining those two together, but I have no idea
if that would be fun.
The idea would be that you could only move ahead in snakes and ladders
if you answered the trivia question correctly.
I could also make variants of the game more child educational by having
another option to test arithmetic, or spelling.
Any thoughts?

Well as I said I've been playing through several of the games from 
Kidfriendly software to write up for audiogames.net, often paying for the 
coins and other upgrades when the game appealed to me personally.


Barnyard was one that surprised me for the idea of the game and how much 
random fun sliding around looking for animals was, especially in the 
matching, indeed I like the fact that the game uses the touch screen so 
uniquely.


I actually introduced my Fiance to the game today, sinse as an animal 
lover and because she's getting used to the hole touch screen concept on 
her Iphone, I thought it might appeal, and she really rather enjoyed it 
(indeed she got far more addicted than I expected and spent half an hour 
trying to beat her previous high score).


Her first comment however (which I promised to pass on), was "why are 
there no dogs or cats?" As a lover of both she was quite disappointed, and 
in fairness I can see her point sinse while it's very cool to have Sea 
lions, Dolphins and rattle snakes on a farm, not to mention loons (good 
company for me), it would be rather logical to have a farm dog or cat :d.


I also did have a couple of thoughts myself.

Firstly, sinse the game employs time limits, it might be nice if we could 
make the information spoken more concise, and thus be more able to get 
higher scores. So instead of hearing "bullfrog to the north west"  have a 
setting to just hear "bullfrog, northwest" or maybe even "bullfrog n w"


Secondly,  I wonder why some aspects of the game which are controlled in 
settings have not been used to create different various types of game to 
play?


For example, instead of having the player choose how many animals, have 
games with increasing numbers of animals, eg, 3 minutes 5 animals, 3 
minutes 6 animals.


It might also be fun to have games that alter the number of animals while 
playing, so that players have to more quickly make judgements on the fly 
and cannot prepare for new sorts of animals turning up. So for example 
have a game that starts with four types of animals, and then add another 
kind after a predetermined time, say 2 minutes, then another kind after 
another two minutes and so on until the player messes up.



Likewise, I rather wondered why both the size of animals and the spoken 
instructions were not factors used to create harder games to challenge the 
player, as opposed to be alterable in settings. Personally I'd much rather 
myself have the option to get higher scores on different modes of play 
than to have the same modes of play but need to alter a setting, sinse it 
creates more variation in the game and gives me more options when I start, 
not to mention making the game progressive by giving harder levels so that 
I can advance to the next hardest category when the previous one becomes 
too easy (I really like the setup in Hopper and Pong for this).


I've actually thought the same in breakout, that the speed of the ball and 
whether the paddle grows when it hits the back wall should be factors that 
alter in different levels, however Blindfold Barnyard, sinse it is based 
on managing increasing levels of more complex circumstances would be a 
really nice game to play around with in this way.


INdeed, speaking of complexity,  there could be some rather fun ways to 
expand the game.


Firstly, at the present moment there is no reason why a player cannot 
simply keep clearing one fence of a given animal type and accumulate more 
and more score on another fence. I was thinking therefore of inserting a 
factor which forced players to keep evolving

Hi Sharren.

The way pinball works is you have a table that inclines away from you. At 
the bottom end towards you is the drain, ie, the place where your ball 
will go if you don't flip it away, a little like the goal in air hockey. 
Either side of the drain are two flippers, which are small flat peaces of 
metal or plastic that flick upwards, and can bounce a ball up the table, 
(though it'll inevitably roll down).


The table itself is full of mechanical apparatus all designed to change 
how the ball moves and get score. There are pads your ball can roll over 
to create more score, bumpers to bounce off, spinners that spinn around 
when your ball hits them, parts of the table that might lower in order to 
give you access to higher scoring areas etc. The object is to bounce your 
ball around, making sure it doesn't go down the drain and scoring as much 
as possible.


The esp pinball games for the pc from draconis are a wonderful simulation 
of pinball and also have great explanations of all the things you can find 
on tables, as well as some very funny challenges, I'd highly recommend 
them.


I've not played the blindfold version for Ios, though I do intend to, 
sinse pinball (when you can hear what is happening and track where the 
ball is going as in the esp games), is a huge amount of fun.

Really though, when a link is for a known site like PC Gamer and the

[Audyssey] iDevice game thoughts - Re: Why I build the games as I do

[Charles Rivard]

For me, lengthy and complex role playing games are not for the iPhone.  The 
games that I would prefer are usually games that I must react to action or 
use dice to score, or something along that nature.  A game such as chess or 
checkers will work well, too, although I have to have a separate board for 
scoping out my next move.  I find it very difficult to explore a board using 
speech only.  I very much prefer to look at the whole board without having 
to memorize where the pieces are.  Arcade games work well on an iDevice, as 
well as a game in which you drive a vehicle on tracks.


I have seen books of instructions for Dungeons and Dragons and other such 
games, and they! are! huge!!  There is no way that I'm going to remember all 
of those rules, and games for iDevices work best if they don't require 
months to play.  I can play Blindfold Pinball or Blindfold Bowling for 
either a few minutes or a few hours, and ther is an end to each game.  In an 
RPG, it takes forever, if there is even a victor.  I think it is a personal 
opinion, but I just don't think that an RPG is best suited for iDevice 
gaming.  Sports games or arcade games, and dice competition games such as 
Dice World, or even sound oriented adventure games are more suited for them.

@Marty, Blind people don't like rpgs? not true.

Go and check audiogames.net and observe the amount of people who reply to
rpg related topics, or indeed post a topic and ask. I suspect the
information you got from that statement was from a local focus group, ie,
society or association for the blind. Unfortunately, such places tend to
have a generally older population who are primarily interested in
traditional type games, however for younger gamers (and indeed those more
likely to own Ios devices), something a little more modern and complex would
appeal more, indeed part of the problem with audiogames development is that
there is a large amount of traditional games available and not so much that
is none traditional, ie, I can think of about 8 versions of blackjack over
the years, but not one single version of a modern fantasy board game like
Talisman, much less a ccg, collectable card game.


I'll also add that rpgs don't need to be as complex as the games produced by
companies like namco and squaresoft. dungeons and dragons do very well with
basic mechanics, indeed most of what an rpg does mechanically can be
represented by dice rolls and risk assessments, the one difference is that
you have story and atmosphere added to that, as well as player progression
over time.

You might begin therefore by adapting some of the multiplayer fantasy themed
card and board games for Ios, games like heroes of the multiverse or
talisman, or creating your own along similar lines if copywrite is an issue.
These would be mechanically similar to games like roadtrip, hearts or dice
poker, just with more text involved, eg, a player would encounter a monster
with a description of it's stats and be required to roll dice for combat, or
a player would encounter a magical object card and decide whether to take it
with them or not.

While I do enjoy the games in the collection thus far, I am a little sorry
none are games intended for longer or more complex play. There's nothing
wrong with a game of hearts, blackjack  etc or a quick arcade game, however
unfortunately there has already been a lot of that sort of thing produced,
indeed I do wonder if some people are taking the attitude "well there are
several versions of hearts for pc, why should I pay to have one on my
Iphone?"

this isn't meant as an attack, as I said I enjoy the games for what they
are, it just saddens me to see developers now producing exactly the same
sorts of games we were seeing in the community 10 years ago, especially with
the greater distribution and easier development inherent on Ios, indeed it's
a little ironic that with one exception all of the more complex games we've
seen recently for Pc or Ios have been games produced by sighted developers
who have accidently created accessible games, or have included access
requests in games that are %80 accessible such as adventure to fate, where
as games produced with the express intention of writing games for blind
people have intended to be simpler.

This isn't to say "where's audio final fantasy", only that some change and
advancement would be nice, especially if kidfriendly software are doing so
well as a company.

All the best,

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] Understanding the Pinball Concept

[Charles Rivard]

All you need to know is in the instructions that come with the game, in the 
"help" section.


A pinball machine is a long rectangular machine with the flippers at the 
bottom, nearest you.  You launch the ball up toward the top of the machine 
with a spring loaded plunger.  Gravity takes over.  As the ball rolls down 
toward you, it hits switches and bumpers, some of which earn you points. 
When the ball gets within range of the flippers, you can tell by the sounds 
where it is.  You hit the flipper, which shoots the ball back up toward the 
top, and it begins falling again.  The longer you can keep the ball rolling 
and bouncing off bumpers and hitting switches, the more points you rack up. 
However, between the flipper on the left side and the flipper on the right 
side, there is an exit hole.  If the ball falls into this hole, that is the 
end of your first ball.  You start with 3 balls, and will earn an extra ball 
if you score 5,000 or more points.  That's basically how the game is played. 
Although it sounds easy, it is not, but it's a heck of a lot of fun.  I 
highly suggest that you buy the in-app purchases for this game.  They are 
really worth the expense.


Thanks, Marty, for a heck of a fun game for our iDevices!!

Subject: [Audyssey] Understanding the Pinball Concept

Hi,

With the Blindfold Pinball just announced, I have a question.  I've never 
played pinball in an accessible way.  I only remember continually pressing a 
button at a game in a store or mall, my sister urgently commanding "Push 
push push!"  I think it was Pinball back in the 70's/early 80's.  I think I 
kind of understand that it involves pushing balls that roll into areas of 
the machine that causes different actions, gives points and abilities.  But 
I'm wondering if I should know anything more?


Thanks for any input,

Re: [Audyssey] frogger questions - Re: a couple of new games outfromkidfriendlysoftware

[Charles Rivard]

In a lot of the games, if the sound is behind you, it is muffled.  If it is 
in front of you, it is not muffled.  I think the best way of doing it, 
though, is used in Shades of Doom.  There is a drum beat heard if the 
monsters are behind you.

Hi.

No need to use any sort of 3D sound, many of the windows games that used
sterrio did not.

what I was thinking in terms of cars or trains is you hear the sounds
passing left to right in front of you, line yourself up according to their
position then take a single hop, after which you move on to the next
obstacle and the previous one is no longer audible, rather the way the
lillypads work now.

Actually, compratively few audio arcade games have used 3D sound, mostly
it's just a combination of sterrio pan and volume which give fairly accurate
ideas,  well enough for an arcade game anyway.

All the best,

Dark.

One of the limitations I have is that only stereo is available; I cannot 
do sounds in front of you versus behind you.  By varying the amplitude, I 
can make a sound seem further away, and it usually sounds in front of you. 
I licensed the Something Else 3D audio engine for the iphone, but ran into 
many difficulties and stopped using it.


Many windows games take advantage of 3D sounds, either through having more 
speakers in the headphones, or by the same algorithms used n the something 
else 3D engine, but since it was Microsoft that provided the technology, 
it was far more stable.

Hi Marty.

Obviously previous games of this type haven't had analogue control, but 
it's a cool idea.


The simplest way would be for the frog to stay static and the cars move 
from side to side ahead of you and then a tap to hop past each car or set 
of cars when the coast was clear not using analogue movement at all. That 
however is missing a key element of gameplay and would probably be 
limited in challenge.


The second way might be to have a varient of the lilly pads gameplay, 
with your frog having to cross roads in various directions rather than 
streight forward, and need to first turn and face the road itself 
(perhaps with an audio beep when on target), then jump when the sounds of 
the car or cars were not in the center of the sterrio field.


A more interesting, though probably more problematic idea  idea might be 
that  moving your phone left and right moved your frog along the bottom 
of the road with the cars in front of you, and you could jump at any 
point.


So for example say you were hearing two cars above you, a fast car coming 
in from the left and a slower one from the right. Well you might want to 
jump at the far left to leave the maximum amount of time between the fast 
moving left cars, provided the right one was out of the way.
On the other hand, for two fast moving cars moving at relative speed, the 
clearest place might be in the center.


I'm not sure how much there would be to add to this in terms of audio 
mechanics, sinse you'd need to hear the sound of the cars in front of you 
and being able to move your phone left and right to alter your frog's 
position relative to the cars, and thus choose whether you wanted to jump 
in the center, to the right or left depending on the traffic's position.


For example if a very fast car were coming from the left hand side, you 
might want to get to the far left of the playing area to give yourself 
maximum time between cars, while if there were two cars moving at 
relative speeds from opposite ends, then your more likely to have a 
chance in the center of the field.


Just some thoughts.


Btw, I appologise if this explanation isn't adequate, however if you want 
some ideas on this type of thing or how to do audio arcade games in 
general, perhaps checking out previous audio games for pc might help 
sinse while they don't have analogue control of the Iphone some of the 
audio sound design for arcade challenges was rather good, the game Hunter 
for example produced by Bsc programs (and annoyingly now not available 
sinse the developer went bust and took his games with him), has some very 
well put together sterrio targeting challenges which add together 
different elements one after another.


Hopper in particular and the ethos of adding together different elements 
to make harder levels in audio very much reminded me of Bsc games and 
Hunter in particular.


All the best,

Dark.

[Audyssey] iPhone game favorites - Re: Hi everyone

I figured that the subject line should be changed, because we're not saying

Some of mine are "Shredder Chess", "Dice World", "cribbage pro", "audio 
archery", "Othello", "Millionaire Game Free", "Quizzoid", "trivia crack 
kingdoms", "audio relay racing", all of the games from Kid Friendly 
Software, and, recently, "nebula", just to name a few.  Note that you might 
have to check at


www.applevis.com

or the app store for the exact names of some of these, and check the 
descriptions to see that you get the ones that are Voice-Over friendly. 
Happy gaming.

Re: [Audyssey] a couple of new games out from kidfriendlysoftware

[Charles Rivard]

I would think that the shooter, not the rim and backboard, would be what 
would have to move.  Sort of like a game of HORSE, in which one of you 
shoots from wherever you choose, and the other player would have to 
successfully make the same shot if the first player was successful.  If the 
one trying to match the successful shot missed, that player would receive an 
H, then an O if they missed another one, and so on.  First player to receive 
the E of the word HORSE is the loser.

The sound maybe through some buzzing for you to tab to hear where the
basketball ring are, then you just flip towards it just like blindfold

When it reaches 10 shot in, the hoops start to move left to right.

[Audyssey] frogger questions - Re: a couple of new games out from kidfriendlysoftware

[Charles Rivard]

Was the idea of the original "frogger" game that you had to get your frog to 
safely hop from one side of a highway to the other, with the highway getting 
more busy with different types of vehicles as you complete each round? 
Having been blind since birth, I never played the original.  I like Marty's 
hopper game, and wonder if, as a game addition, the frog could leave the 
pond and work its way through the scenarios of the original game without 
copyright issues.  I do not at all find the problems you are encountering. 
Same goes for the racing game.  I'm using a 128 gig iPhone 6 with the latest 
firmware.

Hi MArty.

Thanks for getting back to me about the feedback. With roadtrip that's fare
enough, though it'd be nice if it was sorted.

In terms of Hopper, well cars or trains would be fairly easy and have been
done in audio before though not on Ios. Basically you hear the sound of the
cars or trains moving quickly from one side of the sterrio field to the
other, and have to move forward when it is at one side sinse if you hit it
in the center you'd be squished.

The better varients had multiple cars or trains to get past and a varying
forward movement speed so you perhaps had to judge position of a couple of
objects at once. Very doable in audio actually and it  would be a nice
eddition, espeically if the hop distance could be varied just as in the
original frogger.

As to racer, what I mean is I found that when trying to set settings, flick
between levels etc, even find out about the upgrade, for some reason
voiceover's reading of the screen was very patchy. I couldn't flick to
items, often the speech would be choppy, and when moving around the screen
frequently o would not speak at all.
It was actually so bad it was difficult for me to set anything. When I tried
just playing with the in built voice and turning vo off, I noticed a major
problem with the movement and actually the same I had before, it'd be fine
some of the time then for some reason just stop responding, leaving my car
to pootle along and then slam into a fence. It also did seem an in game
movement issue sinse even though the first couple of levels do not employ
the gas peddle, the speed of the car went down to nothing and took literally
five minutes to complete a stage, bouncing off fences all the way.

This is why in terms of the game, I'd either do very well, or for no reason
very badly, eg, scores of 0 or %100 on the first couple of races.
I was hoping this bug was fixed in the newer version.

I'm using an Iphone 5 with the latest build of Ios 9, so I assume there
isn't a problem with the hardware there.

All the best,

Dark.

unsubscribed. A death of this magnitude is not an excuse to gripe and
wine about the games that won't be developed and the loss of *your*
money. Think of the family at this time and not your supposed lost money.
Thank you.

USA Games Interactive
http://www.usagamesinteractive.com/

In 1985 USA Games president and founder, Thomas Ward, discovered he

had an eye disease called Optic Atrophy. Over the following years the

disease damaged his optic nerves leaving Thomas blinded for life.

However, prier to losing his vision he had time to enjoy many classic

video games including such titles
as: Packman, Space Invaders, Double Dragon, Star Wars, Tomb Raider,

and more. He dreamed one day to make his own games he himself could

play even though
he was blind.

In the fall of 1997 Thomas Ward entered college at Wright State

University located in Dayton Ohio. While at Wright State Thomas began

taking courses in
computer science. Two of his favorite fields were software design and

computer network administration. He knew almost from the beginning he

wanted to design
software made for people with blindness and other physical

disabilities.

In the spring of 2004 Thomas ward founded USA Games Entertainment. A

privately owned online game company dedicated to making audio games

for the blind and
low vision driven by sound rather than graphics. His first accessible

audio game for Microsoft Windows was Final Conflict, and soon many

more were in production
as well

In the spring of 2006 USA Games took over production of Alchemy Game

Studios' Montezuma's Revenge and Raceway projects.Both projects have

increased interest
in USA Games's products, and have been updated with new features,

sound effects, ideas, and have been made better than before.

In addition to games USA Games founder, Thomas Ward, has been active

in the testing, research, and development of open source accessibility

technologies
for FreeBSD, Linux, and Solaris operating systems. In the future USA

Games plans to target the open source operating systems with games,

support, and new
access technologies.

As well as president and founder, Thomas Ward, USA Games has a wide

range of private testers, sound designers, and others who voluntarily

help out to improve
our products. We look forward to the years to come serving the blind

and low vision community with high-quality games and other accessible 
technologies.

This is a very important message from your friendly neighborhood
moderator and list owner to let you know what to expect over the next
few weeks. Unfortunately, I have some very bad news to share, and to
be frank about it I have held off way too long without saying

For quite some time my health has been in serious decline. I've been
tied up with medical tests, doctor appointments, and other things
dealing with my medical situation thus have virtually no time to
attend to the Audyssey List, working on writing games, or about
anything else outside of my day to day situation. I had intended to
promote one or two moderators in my place to look after the list, but
unfortunately my life has been so utterly crazy of late I have not
even managed to do that. So I hope that all of you can get along and

this list will not have any hands on moderation or oversight as I go

I am quite happy to help with a small financial contribution to the server
costs if that would make a difference, though unfortunately with my
responsabilities for audiogames.net I don't really feel I can take on more

Hello all,
When Thomas went into the hospital some month's ago I was tasked with 
moderation of this list, but the day-to-day operations and maintenance 
fees associated with keeping the list alive were still his 
responsibility.
With his passing, it falls to me as the one that was in charge to decide 
next steps for this really really awesome list and how we wish to proceed 
from hear on out. But since their are so many members on this list, I 
look to you, the membership for your ideas and suggestions. Running a

SO I look forward to your suggestions and ideas.

Thanks for sending this.

I've got to give my first opinion on what was written, and by "first", I 
mean what I immediately think when reading it based on what I know from this 
list and through off list communications:


This was clearly written by some who did not know Thomas at all.  It does 
not do him one bit of justice.  It sounds like a form that was filled in by 
some business oriented person, just doing their day to day job, filling out 
paperwork on someone who they do not know, nor care about.  It's a real 
shame that a friend or family member did not write something more deserving 
and appropriate.

Hello,
So, I heard that apparently, an RS client was released for IOS? Is that 
true? A google search didn't turn up anything obvious.

Re: [Audyssey] another new exciting game from kidfriendly software is out blindfold roadtrip

[Charles Rivard]

This game is basically the same as "1,000 miles" that is played on RS Games. 
It is a lot of fun and doesn't take long to play.

Hello all gamers. Below is the app store link to a groovy game that just
came out this morning in IOS app store called blindfold roadtrip



app store link



https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/blindfold-road-trip/id1080225770?mt=8



description



Blindfold Road Trip is an fully accessible audio card game where you try to
to be the first player to travel 1000 miles.



You and a computer opponent are given a handful of cards.

Your turn begins by drawing a card from the deck, and then either playing
the card, or discarding the card.

The objective of the game is to play distance cards, such as 100 miles, so
that you travel

a total of 1000 miles.

You also want to prevent your opponent from playing distance cards, by
stopping him by damaging his car, or slowing him down. Your opponent will
try to do the same to you. Both of you can play cards to fix damage caused
by your opponent.



Blindfold Road Trip was suggested by several blind gamers who enjoyed
Blindfold Horse Race and Blindfold Gin Rummy.





If you have any queries for marty Shultz email him at

ma...@kidfriendlysoftware.com

he's always glad to receive feedback/ideasJ

enjoy!

Even though I haven't played the games from Bavisoft in a very long time, 
I
remember those snakes from Grizzly Gulch very well. You can get past

but it requires careful listening. Don't feel bad, it took me a few tries

As for Chillingham, I think my CD is lost, but it really doesn't matter. 
I

for me was the part where you had to get a certain number of bugs for the

more! At one point, I was almost yelling, "Hey! You want more? Go and get
them yourself!" That, and the cliffhanger ending, which of course was 
never

resolved since the promised sequel was never released.
I'll admit, though, it was great getting emails from users asking for 
hints

on how to complete the game because they couldn't contact Bavisoft.

Thanks.

Although I haven't played Grizly Gulch Extravaganza for quite some time, I 
will tell you that you've got to listen very closely, and you've got to be 
quick to defeat all of the snakes.  That is the longest and most difficult 
aspect of the game.  As incentive, there is a surprise waiting for you when 
you complete the game.  It will remain a surprise, because I will not tell 
you what it is.

Hi everyone, I'm just curious to know if anyone still plays any of the 
games from Bavisoft?  I know they've gone bust, but I must confess to 
still liking the silune in Grisley Gultch, and I actually think that game 
has more replay value than Chillingham did.  There is a problem though, I 
always manage to get to the final job the Marshal has for me no problem, 
but I just can't for the life of me get passed the rattle snake attacks, 
no matter how hard I try.  I used the f12 key and set it to 7, which does 
me find for the robbers coming at me, but the snakes seem to come much 
faster for some reason. There's also a really interesting bug on the slot 
machine, I only had $20 left, and when I placed my bet for the whole 20, I 
won 40, but then Dug told me I was broke and I got kicked out lol.  That's 
never happened before, and I don't think running win7 would have caused it 
to crop up.


I'd just love a cheat to get passed those darned rattle snakes, they're so 
time consuming, and if you fail you've to start the whole darned mission 
over again.  Thank god for recent games which allow you to save on the 
spot! :)

[Audyssey] way behind the times

[charles rivard]

I'm one of those people who did not want to migrate from Windows XP because I 
was so used to that platform and it was, for me, reliable.  However, I finally 
scraped up the funds to get a refurbished machine with Windows 7 Professional 
on it.  So, now for the questions:

1.  Are any of the games that come with Windows 7 accessible, and with what

Hi Ken and all,

There's the  game, Phrase Madness, that I really really want to play. 
I've mentioned it before, though I haven't found it on your Website so far 
and I didn't check recently.  But now that you are working with 
Kid-friendly Software, I'm wondering if Phrase Madness could be developed 
there?  If not, I'd like to get it myself if possible, please.


Thanks,

[Audyssey] what to buy - Re: Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

[Charles Rivard]

From what I know, the selection of games that will work for blind people on 
a mobile device is much larger if that device is an iDevice.  There is also 
a much wider selection of other apps that are Voice-Over friendly.  Plus, 
the amount of material that you can use to learn to use the device is 
greater for iDevices because there are more blind people using those 
devices.

Hi Josh,

I am well aware of Android and its games. In fact, was considering one
for a very long time. Thing is while Android has a fair selection it
isn't the same selection so user preference would have a lot to do
with the purchasing process here. So while I haven't forgotten about
Android I'm uncertain myself if that is the way I personally want to
go for my phone purchase.

Hi Dark,

Oh, I don't doubt that. Unfortunately, I am extremely cash strapped
right now so haven't had the funds or means available to purchase a

do have it on the things to do once those funds become available to

Hi Jacob,

Cool. Sounds like a nifty little gaming device you got there. The
only
thing is while I do like interactive fiction games I'm not sure I'd
want to pay out the investment for something like this myself since 
I

only play interactive fiction  games occasionally. If the /Raspberry
device had a broader spectrum of games I might actually consider the
investment in something like it since it would come in handy in 
times
like now when I may be in the hospital for an extended amount of 
time

with little to nothing to do. Dragging around a laptop isn't really
an
option in my case and I don't have a smartphone so I could see
something like your Raspberry Pie being a nice little device between
those extremes.

Hi,
I can't say I'm too thrilled over yet another Space Invaders Clone in the
Audio Games community. Why not try to do something original like bilateral
movement in a space shooter. It has been done with Tank Commander and
Shades of Doom after all, and that was over ten years ago. I think the
Audio Games business suffers from a quite severe case of idea recycling
and lack of innovative development.

On the positive side though, I much prefer other titles by this developer
such as the Inquisitor series or the Rally game.

The very fact that they are open source is a danger.  Plus it would be
more
work for a developer, and the blind iDevice user market is far larger
than
the blind Android user market, plus the vast number of phones and
different
operating systems is a problem when it comes to Androids.  The number 
of
iDevice types and operating systems is not much of a factor. Anything 
7.0

Hello all airhockey fans. Have you ever wanted to play airhockey on

device? Well, now you can cause blindfold airhockey is officially
outJ.
Below is description from IOS app store


Blindfold Air Hockey is an fully accessible audio game that's 
similar

to
the
arcade game Air Hockey.

In Blindfold Air Hockey, you have a mallet or paddle, and there's a
puck
on
the playing table. To start the game, hit the puck swiping your
finger.
The
puck heads towards your opponent's goal, where he knocks it back to
you,
bouncing off of the walls as it gets closer to your goal. You block
his
shot, and fire the puck back at his goal. The first player to score 
7

goals
wins the game.

Using head phones or ear buds, you hear the puck heading towards 
you,

and
you control your mallet by moving your finger left and right. When 
the

puck
is close enough, you'll hear a ding sound, and you can swipe the 
puck

aim at
your opponent's goal.

Blindfold Air Hockey comes with a tutorial level, and 16 different
opponents
- varying from beginner to expert.

Blindfold Air Hockey was suggested by several blind gamers who 
enjoyed

Blindfold Breakout and Blindfold Bowling.

The game comes with coins; you need one coin to play. To get more
coins,
you
can listen to advertising videos, or purchase coins as an in-app
upgrade.

A Visit from Lycanthrope Claus .by Phil Vlasak.
Inspired  by Clement Clark Moore.  The Christmas full moon will be the 1st 
since 1977...


'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house,  Not a 
creature was stirring, not even a mouse.  The garlic was hung by the 
chimney with care,  In hopes that werewolf Claus would not be there.  The 
children were nestled shivery in their beds,
While visions of glowing red eyes danced in their heads.  And mamma in her 
'kerchief, and I in my cap,  Had just settled our brains for a long 
winter's nap.  When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,  I sprang 
from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,  Tore open the shutters and threw 
up the sash.  The full moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,  Gave 
the lustre of mid-day to objects below.  When, what to my wondering eyes 
should appear,
But an enormous sleigh, and eight giant reindeer.  With a large old 
driver, with  whiskers and paws,  I knew in a moment it must be 
Lycanthrope Claus.  More rapid than bats his coursers they came,  And he 
barked, and howed, and called them by name.
"Now, Thrasher! now, Smasher! now, Rupture and Vixen,  On, Vomit! on, 
Stupid! on, Dopey and Blitzen!  To the top of the porch, up the side of 
the wall,  Now jump away, jump away, jump away all!"  As dry leaves that 
before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,  So up to the house-top 
the coursers they flew,  With the sleigh full of bones, and a werewolf 
Claus too.  And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof,  The prancing 
and pawing of each large hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,  Down the chimney 
Lycanthrope Claus came with a bound.  He was covered all in fur, from his 
head to his foot,  And his claws were all coated with blood and soot.  A 
bundle of bones he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a murderer just opening his sack.  His tail, how harry! 
his fangs, how scary! His whiskers were like needles, eyes red as a 
cherry!  His droll long snout had drawn out as it grew,  And the fur of 
his chin was as brown as the stew.
The stump of an arm he held tight in his teeth,  And its blood it 
encircled his head like a wreath.  He had a broad face and a large round 
belly,  That shook when he growled, like a bowlful of jelly.  He was 
chubby and plump, a hair-raising werewolf,
And I screamed when I saw him, in spite of myself.  A glance of his eye 
and a twitch of his tail,  Soon gave me to know I had everything to 
faille.  He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,  But at the 
sound of my gun he turned with a jerk.

While pulling my finger back on the trigger,
The silver bullet hit as he leaped at my figure.
 He crashed out the window while his team gave a whistle,  And away they 
flew at the sound of my pistol.

But I heard him exclaim, as he fell out of sight,
"Cause those damn reindeer left me, I'll give them a good bite!"

Re: [Audyssey] Blindfold Breakout questions

[Charles Rivard]

How to recalibrate the motion is mentioned in the user's guide, although it 
has been so long since I've done it, I don't recall exactly what it is.  It 
may be either a two or three finger swipe down.


As for the coins, they are only for Breakout.  The ability to use them for 
other games would vastly cut down on the available money for the developer 
to continue supporting and creating games.

Subject: [Audyssey] Blindfold Breakout questions



Hi.

I've  just tried this out. I did mean to earlier, but my life has been 
sort of a bit hechtic of late, however as I'd like to see if I can do my 
usual december the 24th audiogames.net database upgrade, (plus I have lots 
of long journies ahead), I thought I'd give this a go.


As to the game itself, I'm really  liking how the ball moves and bounces 
around, actually a lot like the original, particularly getting the ball 
into the back corner to do the multiple brick bouncee of doom!



Definitely a great remake of a classic.

However, I do have a couple of questions.

The first is as regards calibration. I'm not sure if I moved my arm around 
enough during the tutorial, is there a way to repeat calibration or do I 
need to repeat the tutorial level?


Secondly, about these coins.
I'd be quite happy to pay for the game, say by buying the extra modes out 
right, but I'm a little uncomfortable with the coin system.


I don't know! how much I'll play the game, however 14 dollars does seem a 
bit much for unlimited play. ON the other hand, if I say paid just the one 
dollar for the 40 coins, the potential to runout is there.


Are these coins usable in multiple blindfold games on the same device? I 
do mean to try the other blindfold games and obviously there are both 
other arcade games and games like poker that require coins to bet with. 
I'd be far more comfortable paying 14 usd if it got me unlimited plays on 
several arcade titles and/or some poker money.


The add videos thing is okay as an idea, however my problem is that once 
the add video finishes I have problems getting back to the game, sinse the 
back button on the video's final screen is not labeled, (I believe it's at 
the top right hand corner but am not %100 sure on this, and the usual back 
scrub gesture doesn't work).


Indeed, the last game I tried the add videos thing for (actually Turf 
wars), I ended up having to close and reopen the ap after each video, 
however when I tried this in Breakout I didn't get the blindfold.


Of course, all of the coins thing is a sideline to the game, which i 
definitely like so far and expect I will like even more when I've tried 
some of the whackier modes.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi charlse.

I did read the user's guide but I'll check again in case I missed the info 
on recalibration.


As to coins, yes, obviously the developer gets more money if people have 
to pay the full 14 usd to play whenever they want, I just wondered if 
there was more to the system, sinse 14 usd seems quite expensive for an 
arcade game, good game though it is, indeed I'd be happier paying for 
extra modes or levels or in game options streight off than effectively a 
pay for each game model, though fortunately I have found the back button 
on the videos so I can get cash when finished.


Beware the grue!

[Audyssey] you must be a beta tester - Re: Blindfold Tile Puzzle

If you are a beta tester for Kid Friendly Software, should you be letting 
people know of what is to come?  Most contracts between tester and company 
do not want you to tell anything about what is being tested.

No.  It's a figment of your imagination.  It was actually created by the

[Audyssey] devices sold - Re: blindfold airhockey is now out

[Charles Rivard]

The reason that there are more Android devices sold is because there are so 
many different Android devices on the market compared to iDevices.  Take any 
single model and make of Android phone and compare the sales to an iDevice, 
and the Android will be blown out of the water.  A huge number of people buy 
Androids based on price, too, and they get what they pay for.  Some Android 
models even have problems of having been hacked, or already containing a 
virus when they are bought.  But they didn't cost much, either.  Check past 
episodes of a podcast named tii, which stands for Today In iPhone for 
detailed information.

if open source is so dangerous then why is linux mint and ubuntu so very

are vastly outselling the iPhones? I have a mix of open source and 
proprietary stuff in my house, a 4th gen apple tv, android phone, 
windows10 laptop, and my cable box is a mix of open source software and 
some proprietary stuff. yes even comcast cable uses open source stuff in

Hello all airhockey fans. Have you ever wanted to play airhockey on 
your

ios
device? Well, now you can cause blindfold airhockey is officially 
outJ.

Below is description from IOS app store


Blindfold Air Hockey is an fully accessible audio game that's similar 
to

the
arcade game Air Hockey.

In Blindfold Air Hockey, you have a mallet or paddle, and there's a 
puck

on
the playing table. To start the game, hit the puck swiping your 
finger.

The
puck heads towards your opponent's goal, where he knocks it back to 
you,
bouncing off of the walls as it gets closer to your goal. You block 
his

shot, and fire the puck back at his goal. The first player to score 7
goals
wins the game.

Using head phones or ear buds, you hear the puck heading towards you,
and
you control your mallet by moving your finger left and right. When the
puck
is close enough, you'll hear a ding sound, and you can swipe the puck
aim at
your opponent's goal.

Blindfold Air Hockey comes with a tutorial level, and 16 different
opponents
- varying from beginner to expert.

Blindfold Air Hockey was suggested by several blind gamers who enjoyed
Blindfold Breakout and Blindfold Bowling.

The game comes with coins; you need one coin to play. To get more 
coins,

you
can listen to advertising videos, or purchase coins as an in-app
upgrade.

No, open source is not more vulnerable to viruses - if anything, its less
so.
Yes, you can view and modify a copy of the code.
This can teach you how the code works, so if there are bugs, you might be
able to exploit them.
On the other hand, if there are bugs, users can report them more easily.
Being able to modify a copy of the code does not mean you can get that
modified code distributed - you only have a copy, not the official source.
Certainly, I could write a piece of code and include it in a package and
then give a virus to everybody I could convince to run my modified code, 
but

that's about as far as it can go.
A perfect example of open source software is  - or was - the encryption
software true crypt. This was used industry wide - corporations, 
governments

and individuals all relied on it, for a really long period of time. True
crypt was the gold standard - if you wanted high quality data security, 
you

used it, and if you wanted the code, you could get it.
In fact, part of the reason true crypt was as widely used as it was is 
that
it was audited by independent security professionals, something which 
isn't

possible without seeing the code.
Basically what this all boils down to is that open source is just as 
secure

as anything else - it all depends on the distribution mechanism used and,
more importantly, how well the code's written.

You're incorrect here. You can modify your copy of the code, and *only* 
your

copy of the code. You cannot get others to run that code.
I also resent being called "dangerous" - and I suspect a number of other
folks on this list do as well - just because I happen to be able to write

Then again, I could also write something in bgt, compile it, and post it
here as some cool sounding game. You hit enter on it and my evil deed also
gets done.

You state my point exactly when you say, "Certainly, I could write a piece
of code and include it in a package and then give a virus to everybody I
could convince to run my modified code, but that's about as far as it can
go."

That's as far as it needs to go to get the evil deed done.

No, open source is not more vulnerable to viruses - if anything, its less
so.
Yes, you can view and modify a copy of the code.
This can teach you how the code works, so if there are bugs, you might be
able to exploit them.
On the other hand, if there are bugs, users can report them more easily.
Being able to modify a copy of the code does not mean you can get that
modified code distributed - you only have a copy, not the official 
source.

Certainly, I could write a piece of code and include it in a package and
then give a virus to everybody I could convince to run my modified code,
but
that's about as far as it can go.
A perfect example of open source software is  - or was - the encryption
software true crypt. This was used industry wide - corporations,
governments
and individuals all relied on it, for a really long period of time. True
crypt was the gold standard - if you wanted high quality data security,
you
used it, and if you wanted the code, you could get it.
In fact, part of the reason true crypt was as widely used as it was is
that
it was audited by independent security professionals, something which
isn't
possible without seeing the code.
Basically what this all boils down to is that open source is just as
secure
as anything else - it all depends on the distribution mechanism used and,
more importantly, how well the code's written.

Aren't they more vulnerable to having a virus put into them?  I know that
the closed system of Apple is more secure in this way.

Re: [Audyssey] Link to the blindfold puzzle app

[Charles Rivard]

According to the app developer, due to a problem, the game has been pulled 
from the store, but the fixed version should be out within a few days. 
Also, I would not send the game to anyone.  It should be gotten through the 
appropriate source.  Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] blindfold airhockey is now out

[Charles Rivard]

The very fact that they are open source is a danger.  Plus it would be more 
work for a developer, and the blind iDevice user market is far larger than 
the blind Android user market, plus the vast number of phones and different 
operating systems is a problem when it comes to Androids.  The number of 
iDevice types and operating systems is not much of a factor. Anything 7.0 or 
higher is compatible for iDevice users, and most devices will be able to use 
the software.

Hello all airhockey fans. Have you ever wanted to play airhockey on your 
ios

device? Well, now you can cause blindfold airhockey is officially outJ.
Below is description from IOS app store


Blindfold Air Hockey is an fully accessible audio game that's similar to 
the

arcade game Air Hockey.

In Blindfold Air Hockey, you have a mallet or paddle, and there's a puck 
on
the playing table. To start the game, hit the puck swiping your finger. 
The

puck heads towards your opponent's goal, where he knocks it back to you,
bouncing off of the walls as it gets closer to your goal. You block his
shot, and fire the puck back at his goal. The first player to score 7 
goals

wins the game.

Using head phones or ear buds, you hear the puck heading towards you, 
and
you control your mallet by moving your finger left and right. When the 
puck
is close enough, you'll hear a ding sound, and you can swipe the puck 
aim at

your opponent's goal.

Blindfold Air Hockey comes with a tutorial level, and 16 different 
opponents

- varying from beginner to expert.

Blindfold Air Hockey was suggested by several blind gamers who enjoyed
Blindfold Breakout and Blindfold Bowling.

The game comes with coins; you need one coin to play. To get more coins, 
you
can listen to advertising videos, or purchase coins as an in-app 
upgrade.
