Hi All. I am in the midst of writing an accessible video game and have a few
questions
to ask. First up, I'd like to know which open source engine is most frequently
being
used by all you experienced developers, or hav you had to build a graphics and
audio
engine for your game from scratch?

they're totally blind or visually impaired enough that graphics wouldn't do
them any good.

Personally I write all my things in C++. I have built my own game engine, or
rather it's a large set of functions that I combine differently in each game
so to speak. It can only be called an engine in the case of Bgt which
obviously is not relevant here.

I applaud your efforts. This will help to close the gap between disabled
and non disabled people. Financially speaking it also makes more sense
to developer a good accessible game that everybody can play, because
when selling it more people can enjoy it and so you will sell more copies.
If it is a game for both blind and sighted, graphics would be a good thing.

Hi Bryan,
Exactly my thoughts. If there is someone who doesn't want to save games
while playing there is no law saying they have to. Yes, people can use

Hi Yohandy,
Perhaps, but considering the fact I use the save game feature for
debugging I really don't want to restrict it to the beginning of a
level. Besides as Bryan pointed out people who don't want to use that
feature don't have to. That feature, at least, is purely optional.

Ok all,
I have decided to learn the python programming language.

project.

I use the save game feature a lot for testing the game. I often restore

Hi Bryan, quite right. Most accessible game developer's don't worry
about graphics for two reasons. First, they can't see enough to draw the
images themselves, and have no one available who is willing to do the
work. Second, even if they find someone to make them they still can't
see it. So
Hi Jaffar, I think you would be better off writing your own custom game
engine. That way you will get the features and functionality you want
without depending on someone elses engine. Especially, given the fact
that most commercial game engines out there are not equipt for
accessibility
Hi Bryan, true. Although, I think the bigger problem with this type of
game is that video games tend to operate at much higher speeds than
audio games. The graphics might be redrawn 20 to 30 times a second, and
it is constantly being updated in real time. Certainly faster than audio
and speech
hmmm I personally wouldn't care for a subscription thing, I am happy to wait
for things.
I also don't care for payed testing, sure I get things but then there is no fun
in it.
Its different when say a new game comes out, I apply and get a test position, I
then test the game, and put in stuff
yeah.
I aggree there.

Hi Nick, generally for writing code you will just want to use an off

creating a Windows executable you will need to use py2exe which will

Hi Nick, that depends on the application. If you plan to write games
you will need to download and install additional libraries such as
PyGame for starts.

Hi nick, I think I need to explain this a bit clearer. As you probably
know Python is a scripting language and requires an interpretor to run.
Therefore it is not really compiled to a native Windows program as would
be the case if you used a language like C or C++. What py2exe really
