That's because most of us own an iOS or Android device one way or 
another. Pc games are still being developed and sold but think they're 
on the decline as more and more of us are using such devices.

Hi Lindsay.

Well it depends upon what people are developing for.

Aprone, David Greenwood, Jim Kitchin and spoonbill still develop for pc and 
all have released games this year, however more new developers are turning 
to the Iphone, as a newer platform with other possibilities of control and a 
very wide distribution, though that being said there are still occasionally 
games like the inquisitor which have releases for both, not to mention games 
developed with Bgt.


Then there are online games and muds that are multiplatform.

Remember though not all games get announced on the audeasy list, indeed I 
have noticed myself new developers and people asking questions don't tend to 
come to the list which is another reason why audeasy could really do with a 
professional website with useful articles.


Certainly however if your looking to keep up with new developments and 
releases I'd recommend checking out pcsgames.net and audiogames.net.


Lastly however, Lindsay if you haven't got an Iphone but are interested in 
games I would! actually recommend trying one out if you can simply because 
there are some very unique games for the Iphone that just couldn't be bought 
out on pc due to use of technology like the touch screen or gyroscope.


Beware the Grue!

Dark.

2013-11-06 Thread Dallas O'Brien
hi. it's also due to the fact, that its farely easy for a dev that
already has a game on iOS, to implement voiceover accessibility. such
as what the developer of solara has done. it is now amazingly
accessible, yet it was not that way to start with. he has put in a
huge effert, and it has payed off big time for him.
this is simply because, voiceover is actually part of the system, so
no need to code your game for 5 or 8 or what ever number of screen
readers are commonly used in windows. and yes, also, mobile devices
are taking over for a lot of games now. although there are some that
are just suited to a pc better still, some games really do work better
on a mobile device, both because of the touch screen, though this is
less important now as windows moves into this field, and also the
motion detection.

Absolutely not.  Games for the iPhone and other iDevices are cropping up 
quickly, and a lot of them are playable by blind people.  Games for the PC 
aren't being developed by anywhere near as many developers, and not as 
quickly, so it might seem that way, although it is not.

Hi Lindsay,

Well, not really. It is just that the iOS market has more developers
now working on accessible games than does Windows, Mac, or Linux and
in a way games for iOS etc are more popular for that reason. All the
same there are still plenty of people developing PC games.

Cheers!

Saddle up kids, apparently it's time for our regular feature.

On this week's installment of Head Meets Wall, you'll read about...
erm... absolutely nothing new. Seriously, it's just a re-run of the
last time. And the time before that. And the time before that. And the
time... well... you get the idea.

What's that you say? You'd rather eat your own shoes than watch
another round of Head Meets Wall unfold, and you think that only one
fresh attempt should be allowed per each release of the Audyssey
magazine? Much as I admire your diplomacy, it seems that you're in for
a non-optional repetitive treat. We all are. All 300 or so of us.

Yay.
