I don't know if I'd pay for a game like this.
I may play it for free but its not likely to
interest me unless the price was 5 or 10 bucks but that would be the limit.
If you were a cop or someone that was good, etc,

Ah, I got your point now. Makes sense. If we want this community to
grow and survive everyone needs to pitch in and help when and where
possible. Creating audio games is an expensive business, and if blind
gamers want more freeware or shareware games to play they need to help
contribute
Hi Scott,
Yeah, Swamp is definitely the model we should follow. It has turned
out pretty well for a game created mostly based on volunteer help. It
can work if we all pull together as people have for Swamp.

Such was my point. With a castlevania game, I'd for instance be glad to

Hi Dark,
Sure. I've of course heard your work and I imagine you would make a
great Dracula throwing taunts at the main character. If needed I could
run your voice through Goldwave or Audacity to give you a deeper voice
more like Christopher Lee which would rock.
I've heard Bryan as well in games

Hi Bryan,
Well, that is always a factor. For a free project beggars can't be
choosers, but for commercial projects it is better to pay a
