Re: [Audyssey] Hi Dark
Hi jim. Well i suppose if you've sort of got a mental picture of games with 80's graphics even when your making audio games that makes sense, however for myself sinse audio games don't have graphics, I don't think of them as graphical, - well there are my coloured synaesthesic impressions of in game objects, but that's a little different. Just as ytou wouldn't have a synth voice playing a human character in an audio drama, to me the same rule applies in a game. For status info, game menues etc synth is fine, sinse that's just extra info, but for atmosphere and characterization I'd always go with a human. In fact Jim this is sort of what you did in your games featuring homer simpson. You've stuck in phrases like you dbig dumb balling ape etc, to make the character realistic, where as you've stuck to sapi just for things like in game instructions and data, even if you didn't do this for some of your other titles. Hope this makes sense. Eitherway it does seem a shame to me to miss out on a game because it uses synths or sapi, and I'd certainly not refrain from playing a game just because of that.

There are however a couple of points. firstly, Paulosoft, the makers of airik the clerric have changed their name and their site to www.breakerbox.games. com. they have also (as of december of last year), released another game, a cartoon 3D cutesy spy adventure called Curt wolf which has graphics and mouse control but is also fully audio accessible. I haven't tried it yet myself, but it sounds awsome. so you might want to either change that entry, or at the least update the link so that people don't get a 404. Also, though Blind adrenaline itself in terms of it's site and rail racer haven't been updated sinse 2009, work goes on constantly on the cardroom with weekly tournaments and other events. Just this year Yacht, the game best known as Yahtzee was added, along with the omahar varient of Texus holdem poker. i also think Spades was added earlier in the year too. So it is in a very different state to say Draconis that really hasn't! shown any life sinse 2009. then, Nielsbauer actually have two acessible games, sinse smugglers 3 is also accessible. They are however tyring to get interest in their Empires and dungeons game, and if they get enough from the eyeball defficient community they will make an access mode for it, so you might want to put a more prominant announcement on there. Lastly, not that it particularly matters, but the audiogames.net db is actually up to 392 games now, though sinse that'll probably be going up this week as I add some pages that isn't a major factor, I just thought I'd mention it :d.

Re: [Audyssey] 2012 Top 25 List for Gamers who are Blind
Hi Darren. this was discussed back when they were listing sites. The problem with adapted online games is that there are now many of them with labled stuff, and if we added Ce we'd have to add every game that had made access changes. Warriors 2, Sryth, KoL, chronicles of arborell and probably a hole bunch more, not to mention muds like new worlds ateraan, materiamagica and avatar that have some degree of Vi adaptation (though perhaps not as much as in Alteraeon). While I agree ce is great and coops has done a good job with adaptation, where this falls in a list such as 7-128's I don't know. Beware the grue!

There are however a couple of points. firstly, Paulosoft, the makers of airik the clerric have changed their name and their site to www.breakerbox.games. com. they have also (as of december of last year), released another game, a cartoon 3D cutesy spy adventure called Curt wolf which has graphics and mouse control but is also fully audio accessible. I haven't tried it yet myself, but it sounds awsome. so you might want to either change that entry, or at the least update the link so that people don't get a 404. Also, though Blind adrenaline itself in terms of it's site and rail racer haven't been updated sinse 2009, work goes on constantly on the cardroom with weekly tournaments and other events. Just this year Yacht, the game best known as Yahtzee was added, along with the omahar varient of Texus holdem poker. i also think Spades was added earlier in the year too. So it is in a very different state to say Draconis that really hasn't! shown any life sinse 2009. then, Nielsbauer actually have two acessible games, sinse smugglers 3 is also accessible. They are however tyring to get interest in their Empires and dungeons game, and if they get enough from the eyeball defficient community they will make an access mode for it, so you might want to put a more prominant announcement on there. Lastly, not that it particularly matters, but the audiogames.net db is actually up to 392 games now, though sinse that'll probably be going up this week as I add some pages that isn't a major factor, I just thought I'd mention it :d. I'm actually looking forward to the big 400, which hopefully should be soon.

The ranking criteria can be found at the end of the page. We adhere to the criteria, and where it appears that a website is not in the order you would expect, try to explain the reason they are in that location.

Re: [Audyssey] New game (only in portuguese yet)
Hello everyone. Just wanted to let you know that today it was presented a new fresh game developped specially for the blind. It was developed by a brazilian developer who's name is Tiago Arthur Cunha. it's in portuguese only by he plans to make foreign translations. It is a football (soccer= management game: you are a manager of a football team and yu choose players to play, tactics, watch the match, sell players etc. I am very happy because since years I knew a lot of blind people in the world would love to have a football game and here it is. I am happy that Tiago did that. The first version is freeware but I think he will charge for the next versions. I will be the first one to purchase it. The game's name is Talkative Soccer and if you understand portuguese the link is here: http://www.audiogames.com.br/download.php?cat=70ref=0subref=12 Cheers, Jorge Gonçalves jopo...@hotmail.com Skype: joport3 Twitter: www.twitter.com/goncalvesjorge Webpage: www.jorgegoncalves.com On 1/23/2012 3:49 PM, BRYAN PETERSON wrote: Interestingly enough I prefer the UK English version of the Elloquence synthesizer.

[Audyssey] Blast Buddy
I know this isn't a game, per se, but I was messing around with a little BGT IDE. The program, affectionately named Blast Buddy, is meant to work a lot like notepad but have features that will help BGT developers code. I still have plenty of things I could add, but it's working well enough that I figured I'd toss this here to get some early feed back. The readme file explains its features, but since 90% of people won't read it I will paste it here right after the download link. http://www.kaldobsky.com/audiogames/Blastbuddy.zip Added in version 0.2: Undo and Redo features using ctrl+Z and ctrl+Y. There is a maximum of 10 undos so please let me know if you'd like it allow for more. I've done some testing but I would like to hear from anyone who spots any bugs with it. Blast Buddy --- by Aprone, developed with Philip Bennefall's BGT in mind. The program should operate very similar to windows notepad with only a few changes meant to help developers. For starters, when you leave a line, Blast buddy will check it for some common errors. At the moment it only checks for 2 types, forgetting quotes or forgetting the semi colon at the end of a line that needs it. In either case, the program will beep and speak the estimated error to help you catch it before moving on. Think of your program as existing on a set of tiers or levels. On the bottom most tier zero, you have your include statements and functions. Your functions become tier 1 and the lines of code within them are on this tier. If you have a block IF or loop inside of your function, this would become tier 2 along with the code inside of it. Nested statements can continue branching out into higher and higher tiers. One of the most difficult things about programming can be keeping track of these tiers and knowing when they end. Blast buddy has a way to use these tiers to simplify things. Use Alt + Page up and page down to filter your code based on tiers. When set to all, every line of your code appears. When set to tier zero, the normal up and down arrows would only be seeing your lowest tier code such as include statements and functions. Moving up to tier 1 would expand that a bit more. This can be a quick way to overview what you're working on, without needing to scroll through 40 lines of code nested within an IF block. Sometimes all you need to read is the line saying If (age == 18) and you already know this is now the place you wish to add more code. I can't say for sure, but I hope this ability to condense or expand the view will help developers with speed and also with viewing their project in a more managable way. Another interesting filter method is the comments setting. Alt + Page down will lead you to this setting right below all. When in this mode, the only lines that will show up are the ones where you have written comments. If you are someone who comments sections, dropping down to this view could be the absolute fastest way to shrink your code down into an easy to understand format. Once you find the spot you're looking for, simply expand your view and continue working as normal. This was thrown together pretty quickly so there are some things that probably won't work quite right, and a few things I still mean to add. You can't highlight multiple lines for the purpose of copying and pasting. Line numbers aren't displayed anywhere. You can't use a find or replace feature. And finally, soft background tones of different pitch will eventually play as you move up or down in tiers. This will hopefully make it much easier to visualize where you currently are in the code. I intend to add support for more types of checks. It would be nice for Blast buddy to check for case and spelling errors in the BGT key words. It would also be neat for Blast buddy to track the variables names you use, to catch you if you spell one incorrectly later on during your coding. I'm not sure what all will be done with this, but it is fun to brainstorm. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Blast Buddy
Thanks Philip! I wouldn't be surprised if it was some sort of bug, but it might also just be a misunderstanding about how those tiers work. When set to level 2 you should be able to see the main function calls such as void main since those are tier zero. Tier 1 would be the code within functions, but it would exclude the insides of any loops or block ifs. Tier 2 should include the code inside of your lowest level loops and block ifs, but won't include any loops or blocks inside of those blocks. It's possible that the code you're viewing just doesn't have any, or many, tier 2 lines of code. here is a little example to help illustrate how it would work. The line void main is tier zero. void main() { alert(Hello, I am part of tier 1); if (1+1 == 2) { alert(Hello, I am part of tier 2); if (2+2 == 4) { alert(Hello, I am part of tier 3); } if (3+3 == 6) { alert(Hello, I am also part of tier 3); if (4+4 == 8) { alert(Hello, I am part of tier 4); } } } } I think this is a fantastic initiative.

[Audyssey] RIP lWorks
This was just posted: Really saddened about this, super egg hunt plus was turning out to be quite interesting. For over ten years I have been writing computer games for the visually impaired. during that time I have met a lot of great people who have enjoyed what I do. I'm proud to saythat I produced some excelent games that people enjoy to this day.

Re: [Audyssey] Blast Buddy
I really like this idea, a sort of compiler before the compiler thing. I think that it's got a lot of potential, particularly as it should (based on what you've said and what I know about code) work for multiple languages. If this got more suffisticated I could see it coming in very handy for some of the programming related things I've got going on right now. - Original Message - From: Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com To: audyssey gamers@audyssey.org Date sent: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 08:22:36 -0800 (PST) Subject: [Audyssey] Blast Buddy I know this isn't a game, per se, but I was messing around with a little BGT IDE. The program, affectionately named Blast Buddy, is meant to work a lot like notepad but have features that will help BGT developers code. I still have plenty of things I could add, but it's working well enough that I figured I'd toss this here to get some early feed back. The readme file explains its features, but since 90% of people won't read it I will paste it here right after the download link. http://www.kaldobsky.com/audiogames/Blastbuddy.zip Added in version 0.2: Undo and Redo features using ctrl+Z and ctrl+Y. There is a maximum of 10 undos so please let me know if you'd like it allow for more. I've done some testing but I would like to hear from anyone who spots any bugs with it. Blast Buddy --- by Aprone, developed with Philip Bennefall's BGT in mind. The program should operate very similar to windows notepad with only a few changes meant to help developers. For starters, when you leave a line, Blast buddy will check it for some common errors. At the moment it only checks for 2 types, forgetting quotes or forgetting the semi colon at the end of a line that needs it. In either case, the program will beep and speak the estimated error to help you catch it before moving on. Think of your program as existing on a set of tiers or levels. On the bottom most tier zero, you have your include statements and functions. Your functions become tier 1 and the lines of code within them are on this tier. If you have a block IF or loop inside of your function, this would become tier 2 along with the code inside of it. Nested statements can continue branching out into higher and higher tiers. One of the most difficult things about programming can be keeping track of these tiers and knowing when they end. Blast buddy has a way to use these tiers to simplify things. Use Alt + Page up and page down to filter your code based on tiers. When set to all, every line of your code appears. When set to tier zero, the normal up and down arrows would only be seeing your lowest tier code such as include statements and functions. Moving up to tier 1 would expand that a bit more. This can be a quick way to overview what you're working on, without needing to scroll through 40 lines of code nested within an IF block. Sometimes all you need to read is the line saying If (age == 18) and you already know this is now the place you wish to add more code. I can't say for sure, but I hope this ability to condense or expand the view will help developers with speed and also with viewing their project in a more managable way. Another interesting filter method is the comments setting. Alt + Page down will lead you to this setting right below all. When in this mode, the only lines that will show up are the ones where you have written comments. If you are someone who comments sections, dropping down to this view could be the absolute fastest way to shrink your code down into an easy to understand format. Once you find the spot you're looking for, simply expand your view and continue working as normal. This was thrown together pretty quickly so there are some things that probably won't work quite right, and a few things I still mean to add. You can't highlight multiple lines for the purpose of copying and pasting. Line numbers aren't displayed anywhere. You can't use a find or replace feature. And finally, soft background tones of different pitch will eventually play as you move up or down in tiers. This will hopefully make it much easier to visualize where you currently are in the code. I intend to add support for more types of checks. It would be nice for Blast buddy to check for case and spelling errors in the BGT key words. It would also be neat for Blast buddy to track the variables names you use, to catch you if you spell one incorrectly later on during your coding. I'm not sure what all will be done with this, but it is fun to brainstorm. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Well I discovered why Philip was able to see all of the lines even while filtering based on tiers. I had broken it while trying to rearrange a few lines of code. So the good news is that it should be fixed now. The current uploaded version is 0.4, and the one I just uploaded lets you use ctrl + L and ctrl + T to turn on line numbers or spoken tiers. I have no idea if it is set up in the nicest way, so I'd appreciate feedback from people using it with their screen reader. I have no idea if the spoken line numbers or tabs will blend together with the actual code of the line. I also am still planning to put background tones to indicate the current tier, and when I add that it probably won't have to speak it as a number anymore. Chris it never did give me any trouble, so I'm hoping it was just an issue with the older version you were running at the time. Please let me know if you still have that error when you open your file with a newer copy of Blast Buddy. I too am excited about where this could go. If Jeremy and Philip were to work together, I could see this becoming the first programming IDE developed from the ground up with blind programmers in mind. Jeremy, did you ever figure out why my file was producing a runtime error on opening? As for additional features, I would like to see line numbers as an option.

[Audyssey] blastbay forum appears to be freezing my IE8.
About half the time when I go to post something on the blast bay forum, my browser completely freezes. This is happening with NVDA and JFW, so it's not a screen reader issue. I've experienced similar behavior occasionally from the audiogames.net forum site. Anyone know what's going on?

Re: [Audyssey] X Hour?
vgz havn't really developed anything for ages, sertainly no releases have appeared on the gamers list or the forum for at least a couple years. x hour has not got anything redone on it and since the demos are like 3 days, I don't care for them much.

Re: [Audyssey] New information about Terraformers!
Hi. please note in future you can look up games on www.audiogames.net, just use the dropdown list at the bottom of the page. All have descriptions and links to more infor where appropriate. As to Terraformers, It's a first person scifi adventure game, rather more concerned with exploration than action though it has a little. It has some rather good sfx and plot, and some very atmospheric sounds, dialogue, music and descriptions, my only cryticism is that it's a little too easy. It also has ful graphics too, and I don't just mean a few, I mean it's a fully fledged graphical game, though as an audio game it's utterly playable and that was the intent of the project. Go and give it a try, especially if it's free.

Re: [Audyssey] RIP lWorks
yeah, but judging that after last years crash I havn't recieved my jd unlock code for ages I figured that liam was bussy. Its a pitty he had to go, but at least he honours his customers and will give out codes to them as well as allow us to buy his games. I have seen companies that go and leave their stuff in an unknown state. Eventually the games are cracked and everyone gets them, but having an unknown status doesn't feel finalised to me. I remember last year that after a crash I sent a unlock replacement for jd, but never got one, I also sent a support message to liam asking him if he needed any assistance with keys. he used to broadcast on the net.

Hi. please note in future you can look up games on www.audiogames.net, just use the dropdown list at the bottom of the page. All have descriptions and links to more infor where appropriate. As to Terraformers, It's a first person scifi adventure game, rather more concerned with exploration than action though it has a little. It has some rather good sfx and plot, and some very atmospheric sounds, dialogue, music and descriptions, my only cryticism is that it's a little too easy. It also has ful graphics too, and I don't just mean a few, I mean it's a fully fledged graphical game, though as an audio game it's utterly playable and that was the intent of the project. Go and give it a try, especially if it's free.

Re: [Audyssey] Hi Dark
That's definitely unusual. In my case listening to some of the synthetic voices for a long stretch drives me up the wall. The less human the voice like Eloquence or ESpeak the more irritating I find it. I guess I've adapted to Eloquence and ESpeak, as I use them all the time with NVDA, but the more human voices like the ATT voices are definitely preferable in terms of human quality. I find games that use human voices for menus, status messages, much better.

Re: [Audyssey] game speech
Hi Charles, Yeah, that is a personal preference thing. I remember originally when I designed MOTA I used Real Speak Caren because I love her voice and Australian accent. However, you and a couple of others requested a strict American female which I did. Although, I like Heather I still think Caren sounds better, and its just a case of preference. I can't remember which word it was but you e-mailed me and asked me what Caren said. Wasn't it something like dart and you thought she said dot? I think I've listened to that voice so much I have grown accustom to the accented words, gotten use to hearing shedule instead of schedule, etc that would throw the average American off. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] game speech
Hi Bryan, Oh, I like the U.K. version of Eloquence as well. I like to leave it set on Justin because I think he sounds better than Reed. I also agree I can put up with almost any SAPI voice for menus and things like that, but not for cutscenes and game commentary. One of the things that bothers me about the wrestling game I'm working on is commentary. Right now any time you perform a move SAPI acts as a ring side commintator. Ok, it works, but I can't get into it. I'd prefer a human to actually call out the moves rather than SAPI. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Blast Buddy
Hey thanks for that, I'll probably be using this a lot. Though we really need to be able to select multiple lines. *grin* I've tried this with a few of my games and since I always comment esctions this works like a charm. thanks On 1/23/12, Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com wrote: Well I discovered why Philip was able to see all of the lines even while filtering based on tiers. I had broken it while trying to rearrange a few lines of code. So the good news is that it should be fixed now. The current uploaded version is 0.4, and the one I just uploaded lets you use ctrl + L and ctrl + T to turn on line numbers or spoken tiers. I have no idea if it is set up in the nicest way, so I'd appreciate feedback from people using it with their screen reader. I have no idea if the spoken line numbers or tabs will blend together with the actual code of the line. I also am still planning to put background tones to indicate the current tier, and when I add that it probably won't have to speak it as a number anymore. Chris it never did give me any trouble, so I'm hoping it was just an issue with the older version you were running at the time. Please let me know if you still have that error when you open your file with a newer copy of Blast Buddy. I too am excited about where this could go. If Jeremy and Philip were to work together, I could see this becoming the first programming IDE developed from the ground up with blind programmers in mind. Jeremy, did you ever figure out why my file was producing a runtime error on opening? As for additional features, I would like to see line numbers as an option.

Re: [Audyssey] Terraformers
Hi nicole. once you get past the training level, the layout is fairly simple. you go through a streight passage to a place withe terminal, with exits right and left. Listen to the message in the terminal then choose a left or righth direction to go first. Both directions on the east or west have challenges to get through in order to collect a part for the computer, and you'll have to get both. this is how each area of the game is laid out, like several doughnuts with a terminal on the north and south side, and a challenge to do for the computer parts on the east or west sides. As for the challenges, none are too hard, if I remember rightly on the right you need to collect some sound sources then run round a room and match them with some other sound sources to activate cannons to destroy a robot, while on the left there are three tone wheels and a sound flower that makes a noise to tell you what the tone wheels should be set to. Energy isn't a problem sinse there are refill stations all over the place, just keep track of what your energy is and head back to a refill point if it looks low. Beware the grue!
