What exactly has you confused. Perhaps if you have some specific

I recall that some time ago, there was a discussion on Lone Wolf. Some people
were thinking, Wouldn't it be cool if we had a game sort of like Lone Wolf,
but we were flying a plane? In regards to the game from the Shard Workshop,
in a sense, do we now have such an animal?

Yes, a new version was released very recently. It has been just
over a year since the last one came out, however.

Well, I believe there is a new version of SoundRTS that was released a

I don't think so, though others may disagree. While Zero Sight seems to
provide an in-depth flying experience, I was actually quite disappointed in
the modeling of how one actually flies an aircraft. I understand that those
physics are difficult to make playable, so don't hold it against the

What I was getting at in my original post are the similarities between the

the enemy. You must complete given missions. You are navigating left and

Hi Chris,
I agree. I tried the Zero Sight demo myself and it doesn't really grab
my attention the way Lone Wolf does. Yeah, Lone Wolf doesn't

I guess I'll throw in some observations here. What that computer

Hi Will,
Not that I know of. the last version of Lone Wolf, v3.5, supports
Jaws, Window-eyes, or SAPI. I guess version 4.0 will have additional
screen reader support, but we'll have to wait and see when that
version is released.
Cheers!

Maybe. Something else that might effect it is the game only allows a

Yeah, tell me about it. In one of the games I played today there was a
