Hi Jacob, I don't know, but it is annoying to say the least. I'd have to dig through the NVDA source code to figure out how it acquires the text on the console and figure out why it treats every character separately when typed characters is on. I'll probably contat the NVDA dev team in the next

Greetings gamers, We have just released a minor update to Change Reaction 2 for Windows, which is recommended for all users. 2.1.1.8 solves an issue that could occur, usually only if a screen reader was in sleep mode, when the app exited. Additionally, there are a handful of other minor fixes

How many of you have played Reign? I know it appears visual at first; there's a symbol for oil next to the amount of oil, a money symbol next to the amount of money; but once you read the tutorial/manual, you pretty much figure out what the numbers mean by what order they appear in.

Hi, Do you have any plans to add a feature to any of your games that would tell us when the game is launched that an update is available? Even if you had to go to the website itself to download and install it, it seems that having a notification might be nice. This is just a suggestion, though.
