Actually, breakout is the next game i'm building.  Ken Downey gave me 
some good audio files that I need to check out.  I've been kind of 
busy dealing with 12 games in the app store that broke due to changes 
in ios9 text-to-speech.  Most of that work is done now, so I can get 
back on track.

Hi David.

This is exactly why I'm personally waiting to upgrade to Ios 9 until 
at least 9.1, so that all the kinks can be worked out.


Personally, I'd most like an accessible version of breakout with the 
bat ball and blocks. not only is it an arcade classic which there 
are no real accessible versions of (the version on Pcs is a good 
game but not imho close enough to the original to really give the 
experience), but also it's a game where the gyro for moving the 
paddle to bounce your ball would add something to the play.


Still, we'll see what Marty fancies doing. actually I need to play 
more of his games and add them to the db, although I confess my mind 
hasn't been on games lately.


All the best,

Hi Dark,
 I emailed Marty recently  and put forward a couple of suggestions 
to him, my first one for an accessible version of Packman and my 
second one for a space-invaders type game. I know we have a few of 
those already but another clone would be good, since Audio Defence 
doesn’t work for now under IOS 9. Marty and I discussed Packman and 
he thought it would be good to start with a maze game first before 
tackling Packman, to which I agreed. Marty was concerned about how 
we would know when we were approaching the ghosts in Packman so I 
was explaining “Packman Talks” and how it was played.
 Getting back to Audeio Defence, I have reported the problem I am 
experiencing under IOS 9 to the developer.

Hi Leo,
I tried “1000 miles” on my iPhone a few months ago but didn’t get 
very far with it. You should have been able to just double tap on 
a card to select it but the process was more complicated than that.

Re: [Audyssey] Free 1000 miles games for theIphone thatareaccessible?

2015-10-16 Thread Marty Schultz
The reason that it's non-trivial is that it requires a physics engine to 
control the ball, and a way to give the player a lot of information at 
the same time - number of bricks,  position of the paddle, angle and 
speed of the ball, etc.  Fortunately, I have a great group of blind 
gamers that can tell me what works and what doesn't.

Awesome! As I said, I've never understood why there haven't been more 
attempts to make accessible versions of breakout. From a sound scape 
perspective it's not too different from pong, and yet the gameplay is 
far more interesting and can have far more potential variations, 
especially when you add analogue style control such as the gyro of Ios 
devices into the mix.


I'll look forward to that one.
