Re: [Audyssey] Inquiry From Popular Mechanics
Ashley, there are also game sites for the blind where folks can go online and play games with others. rsgames.org the vip gamezone and another quinton c's playroom. I believe there may be a couple more but that will get you started. I myself fancy myself to be a fairly good Monopoly player however none of the mainstream game sites are accessible to those of us who are blind. Well maybe I ought not to say that, but for me E.G. I would like to be able to play on pogo.com however no can do.

I'll answer your questions. a lot of this is probably changing and a lot know more than I do but I will try to help. exposure is what we need if we are ever going to make progress with mainstream stuff. Our games lack a lot of concepts that the sighted will take for granted mostly because we havn't figured out a way to handle those or convert them yet. we have multiplayer and such but there are still gaps though the gap is closing all the time.

What does it have to have to work well for someone who can't see? Hmmm thats a hard question. Right now it needs to be simple to play, can be controled by the keyboard etc. No graphics what so ever, and needs to work with a screen reader or sapi synth voices though we would prefur full dialog to be honest synths really are not the best convayers of things during a game depending on that game. We do need things to help us target as well as locate things right now anyway maybe in the future we won't be as simple. For blind or visually impaired gamers, what are your favorite audio games, and why? Which games designed for sighted people are these most analogous to? Hmmm. Thats a hard one. shades of doom is mine. this is like the doom series 1 and 2 not sure about 3 though. Audioquake though sadly that project died. It was a shell for the quake engine and was good. lone wolf. Thats like I guess silent hunter but with less features. gtc, or gma tank commander. That has its roots in panza98 but I don't know what game it came from or is going to and I may have it all wrong. there are a couple of trek games to final conflict is based on several games that are trek. there is soundrts which is based on warcraft. entombed which is a rpg and is quite good. Most games though are all based on space invader clones, card and board games. The landscape between the sighted and blind is vast. What are some examples of games for the blind that I can play online? Hmmm. There arn't any I know of off my head unless you mean the experimentals at audiogames.net. most in fact almost games need to be downloaded and installed or at least unzipped. What do you think is the most interesting factoid about games for the blind? Hmmm to be honest that we can play games at all. To the sighted blind games have no interest what so ever because of their lack of graphics. And if there is an interesting fact then its only really usefull to the blind not sighted users. I can't think of one but then I am not one of the up to date geeks here. you should try to register this topic on forum.audiogames.net. you will get better coverage. Also I'd like to check your sight and the article online I am sure everyone else will I havn't heard of the site you are putting things on there are so many.

Other minor changes include: Two new options in the main menu, to unregister the game and to clear your local scores, and the game now prompts you to confirm you wish to return to the main menu if you try and exit during a game. There are also a couple of minor bug fixes and performance improvements. You can download it at http://www.x-sight-interactive.net/games/x-wheel.php. Kind regards, Damien C.S.

Yes, if you shut off voice-over by clicking the home button three times you can also turn it back on the same way, that is, provided you have gone in to settings, general, accessability and then acted on the triple-click home item in the menu.

[Audyssey] Fw: New Game Released: Pig
- Original Message - From: Ryan Smith computerwi...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, March 16, 2013 9:44 PM Subject: [Audyssey] New Game Released: Pig Hello Gamers, RS Games has just released a new game for its multiplayer server called Pig, in early celebration of St. Patrick's Day. It is a very simple dice game where you roll one die, and are faced with two options: Roll or Hold. Every roll of the dice increases your score, except if you roll a one. If you roll a one, you loose ALL your points scored for that turn, and the next person goes. Your goal is to rack up as many points as you can and Hold (allowing the next person to go), before you roll a 1. It's simple - but fun to play with friends. You can read documentation on this game by visiting: http://zanosoft.net/zgp/doc/pig.html. As always, visit www.rsgames.org to learn more about us, and register for a free account to start playing any of our titles.

Speaking of accessibility, the tutorial isn't accessible at all, and the game starts with a bunch of unlabeled buttons. All of these, save one, are dimmed, and the undimmed one is the one to click each time. It takes about three minutes of clicking around to get through the tutorial, but once you're past that everything's accessible except whatever might be on the screen during actual game play. I'll try to get help with that aspect tonight and post about what I find. The game also has an extra game to unlock, called ball bounce, but this, sadly, is inaccessible.

[Audyssey] Fw: [OurPlace] FW: University of York student develops 3D crosswordpuzzles for gamers with vision disabilities
- Original Message - From: Sandy Brooks shbrook...@gmail.com To: Our E-List ourpl...@list.audioldies.com Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2013 9:49 PM Subject: [OurPlace] FW: University of York student develops 3D crosswordpuzzles for gamers with vision disabilities I thought this was pretty amazing. Sandy University of York student develops 3D crossword puzzles for gamers with vision disabilities http://globalaccessibilitynews.com/2013/02/11/university-of-york-student-de velops-3d-crossword-puzzles-for-gamers-with-vision-disabilities/ Americas http://globalaccessibilitynews.com/category/regions/americas/ , Feb 11, 2013 A University of York student has successfully completed a challenge that will allow people who are blind or low vision to complete 3D crosswords. Sam Twidale, an undergraduate student in the Department of Computer Science, tackled the challenge laid down by Eric Westbrook, of 3D Crosswords Limited, to develop a computer program to allow a totally blind crossword solver to tackle a 3D crossword independently. Sam's program allows users to select crossword clues, which the Speech Application Programming Interface (SAPI) on their computer then reads out. The computer will also spell out any words that are not clear, are ambiguous or are homophones. The solver types their answers using the keyboard and these are recorded visually in the grid and the table of clues. The program allows the solver to move to clues affected by solutions to hear any letters that already appear in the grid. In this way, the program gives the blind solver the same information that the sighted solver could gain from looking at the crossword grid. Sam used the feedback from one of his friends, Mahomed Khatri, a University of York student and a blind cricketer, and from Eric Westbrook, who is himself registered blind, to improve the program during development. Sam, a final year student on the MEng in Computer Systems and Software Engineering programme, said: The challenge captured my interest because it was a one-of-a-kind proposal and I'd been thinking of developing a game for gamers with vision disabilities. It was crucial to understand the needs of the users of the program and to build the software around them - making assumptions can mean you trip up. Developing the solution was a lot of fun and the feedback from Mahomed and Eric was invaluable. I plan to keep adding to the program indefinitely and any feedback, technical advice or contributions are welcome, as I'm still learning! Eric Westbrook said: When people suffer eyesight loss this can be devastating and almost inevitably there are activities previously enjoyed or just plain necessary which become a serious problem or well nigh impossible. The blind person does less and less and becomes more and more isolated. If there was a Sam Twidale for every such situation more blind people would feel included and could rejoin communities from which they have been excluded. Sam's code is open source, and is available at https://github.com/Tw1ddle/Blind-Crossword-3D There is also an issue tracker here to enable users to record any bugs or questions. Sam is happy for any programmers who wish to contribute to help out. Sam's prize for completing the challenge is £1000, which he will receive at a special presentation event on Tuesday, 29 January in the Department of Computer Science. You can find out more about the course Sam studied on at http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/undergraduate/ug-courses/meng-csse/ 3D Crosswords Limited is a non-profit organisation, which develops 3D crosswords each year. These crosswords are part of a world championship with BBC Children in Need Appeal, generating funds for the appeal and The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB).

Re: [Audyssey] iPhone bowling and fishing?
Good questions, Charles, I will be interested in the responses.

I'm looking for some first hand before you buy it info from iPhone users. Have you found any bowling games that a blind gamer can use with Voice-Over? I want to be able to know and accurately aim at any remaining pins and know the results. Very important: I do not want a game that I can succeed by luck using the method of bowling at random. I am also looking for a fishing game sort of like Lunker Bass, if anyone remembers that hand held fishing game. The motion sensors of the iPhone would work well for determining your cast and rod actions, I would think, but are there any such games that do work with Voice-Over?

Re: [Audyssey] Good iPhone games for Voiceover user
there are lots of games for use on the Iphone. If you will go to http://www.applevis.com you will find more than you will want.

The free game only ran on Windows, and was our sole multiplayer title. What originally started out as a fun project turned into a dream come true on this date. We received a heap of feedback from players, extolling our work, as well as asking for more games. Therefore, several months later, we released Uno, and the RS Games Client which currently powers our multiplayer platform. Unlike Monopoly, this piece of software runs on three common operating systems, Mac, Windows, and Linux. It also allows us to release new games without people having to go to a website and download new software. In celebration of our first anniversary, on December 20th, 2010, we added Yahtzee as our third title. It is one of the more popular games on the server, and based on the comments from many players, we know hours of fun have been spent playing it. In celebration of our second anniversary, December 20th, 2011, we released Apples to Apples. It is a really fun game that we know our players are enjoying. To celebrate the third anniversary of RS Games, we are releasing two new games, the classic dice game Farkle and the card game Rummy! Our testers have had an inordinate amount of fun playing these games, and I'm confident all of you will too. If you already have the client installed, all you need to do is login to start playing.

Re: [Audyssey] Another horror audio only game.
Michl, have you received the game and tried it out to see if indeed a person who is blind can actually play it? Fred Olver - Original Message - From: michael barnes c...@samobile.net To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, October 06, 2012 1:41 AM Subject: [Audyssey] Another horror audio only game. Hello, Thursday I was doing some research on some audio games for the iPhone and I came across this one. Name of game: Escape The House A3D Sound Experience. Description: Inspired by the most frightening moments from the movie House At The End of The Street, this immersive 3D sound experience pulls you in and traps you in the darkness. Using the gyroscope and the 3D audio features on your device, you must blindly find your way out and escape the House. Be warned - it won’t be easy to hear your way out of this nightmare. It's pitch dark - you hear footsteps coming from above. Frozen with fear your heart starts pounding. All of a sudden you are grabbed from behind. You hear yourself struggle, but it's no use. Someone has you in a deathly tight grip and is forcing you down the stairs. You hear chains rattling and realize you are getting chained up to something. The perpetrator leaves, and this is your chance to escape… Your heart is pounding fast, but you need to focus! Timing is everything. Your end goal is to avoid the killer and escape the house by walking, running, shaking your phone, hiding and screaming into the microphone at the right moments - all in complete darkness. FEATURES: SHAKE your device to free yourself from the chains. EXPLORE, WALK, RUN using your device’s gyroscope, you’ll need to turn your body 360 degrees – be careful of what you can’t see! SNEAK upstairs by tapping your screen - not too fast, not too slow. HIDE Don’t move your phone and don’t make any sound, because if you do, he’ll hear you and catch you! SHOUT if you manage to escape the house. Scream into the mic as loud as you can to get attention. If you’re too quiet, you won’t be heard and cannot be saved. SHARE your personalized video via Facebook with friends once you’ve freed yourself . - House At The End Of The Street in theaters on September 21st The game is free. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

To be honest i never even got that far in zork, in zork 1 I was always stuck on how to get the silver bar out of the echo room.

I don't mind grinding for a long time to overcome a tough enemy, or even exploring a large area so long as the exploration actually gets me somewhere, but to be constantly stuck at one point with one action required seeing the same message over and over again, whether that's a maze with unknowable rooms or a puzzle you keep trying to guess the right actions for I just find frustrating, sinse I am not seeing any progression at all. That's why i tend to just use the invisiclues, sinse ultimately I'm more interested in exploring the rest of the game and the story than just banging my head against one particular brick wall, which is probably why I don't play if anymore.

Fred Olver - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2012 11:08 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] free on-line or downloadable games that work withJAWS Hi Annabelle, Welcome to the list. There are a number of audio game developers with their own websites where accessible games can be found. However, before I list some of the more popular ones you should look at http://www.audiogames.net which has an extensive database of audio games with links to go to the developer's websites to download. Also PCS Games http://www.pcsgames.net has a fairly extensive list of audio games with information on how much they cost and where they can befound. Besides those two sites there are a number of audio game websites that are worth mentioning for one reason or another. First, there is the Kitchen's Inc. website http://www.kitchensinc.net. Jim Kitchen has the largest collection of free games around. He has created free accessible versions of Monopoly, Yatzi,Poker, Blackjack, Life, and more. Its a great place to start if yu want some free games to get started with. Next, is my own website http://www.usagamesinteractive.com which also has a number of free games. My collection is nowhere as extensive as Jim Kitchen's collection, but I've collected a number of free and/or abandoned games and made them available for download on my free games page. Third, there is Draconis Entertainment. Formally, ESP Softworks and Adora Entertainment they have an extensive catalog of great games. Some of the most popular games you'll find is ESP Pinball, ESP Pinball Extreme, Dynaman, Monkey Business, Alien Outback, and more. Fourth, there is http://www.blindsoftware.com formally BSC Games. They have a few games such as Troopenum, Pipe II Blast Chamber, and Hunter that are well worth looking at if you are into classic arcade type games. Last, but certainly not least, is GMA Games. If you go to http://www.gmagames.com you'll find a number of great games such as Shades of Doom, which is loosely based on the Doom series, Tank Commander, which is similar to games like Metal of Honor, Lone Wolf, which is similar to Aces of the Deep, etc. If you are into real time military and strategy games GMA Games seems to be the industry leader when it comes to that genre. Of course, GMA has a few other games such as Solitaire, Dice Roller, Mine Buster, etc that are worth a rainy day as well. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Thursday's Out-Of-Sight events
I'm not saying that your posts are off-topic. I'm trying to reason with you. What I'm trying to say which you don't appear to understand is that 1. individuals can easily gain the information directly from the website or subscribe to it. 2. This is a somewhat high traffic list and I personally feel posts which are available elsewhere are not needed to be posted here. 3. there is no need for your posts since the information is easily readable from the source from which it is distributed, as I am sure it is readable on their website. 4. I shouldn't have to delete messages that there is no need for them to be here in the first place.

Hi all. Well I've regretably not had a lot of time for gaming lately, will hopefully be able to find some time to fire up my ps3 and do some butt kicking on SC5 or Streetfighter over this long weekend. Anyhow I was doing some looking around the app store on my Ipad and found a game called Zombies that made some references to playing with earphones and even trying to play without looking. Well needless to say that piqued my curiosity and I installed it, yes it is free. The good news, yes the game does seem to employ the stereo field for something, if you tap the left or right sides of your screen while at the game's main menu it makes a growling sound in your left or right ear respectively. The bad news, I haven't been able to figure out much beyond this, the buttons are not very well labeled and like many of these apps directions are minimal. I will continue to play with it though. If anyone else is interested and has trouble finding the game let me know and I'll find the name of the developer. Game on.

Hi there, I thought about making a longer competition, and I most likely will be making the next one longer than two months, but the other issue to consider is whether people have the time management skills necessary to participate in a competition that runs for as long as 6 months. Personally, I do not. I prefer having short development times where I spend many hours a day, rather than a more drawn out period. In the latter scenario I end up getting distracted from the project and I'm much more likely to leave unfinished. In other words, we need some sort of balance between these two. Two months may be on the short side, but similarly I feel that 6 months is pushing it a bit. 3 or 4 might be what I decide to go for, but that's still very much up for debate.

Philip, this was a great competition, however one feeling I did have is that the participants didn't exactly have time to really let their skills show through, given the two month time frame. Retroremakes, darkbasic, donation coder.com and other such pc indi sites that have similar developement competitions usually give a six month developement period. While I don't despute we got some good games, not everyone who was going to enter got a chance to create a game, and I do feel that a longer developement period would have yielded a few more entries, heck even the arborell gamebook competition gives four months, and that's just for the writing of a gamebook in text, rather than the ful programming of a game. I would therefore really suggest that the next competition instead of being short notice, gives 4-6 months of developement time to entrants, to make certain everybody who enters can do the best he/she can. I'd therefore personally suggest you announce the comp in august or so, with developement time running september to december, and the winner to be announced in January. This way everyone gets notice, and we have a nice build up to the new 2013. The timing however doesn't matter, sinse obviously it needs to be convenient to you, I do however very much think that 4-6 months developement time would yield even better results for the next competition.

Hi all! Finally, we have a confirmed winner of the BGT competition! Some recent unexpected freelance work delayed this announcement, since I wanted to do the thing properly and make sure I had counted everything exactly right. Now, however, the result is final. It was a very even competition. Obsessive Compulsive was generally ranked very highly for innovation, The Spaceship received very favorable scores on sound quality, and so did Playmania. The result is as follows: Third place: The spaceship. Second place: Obsessive Compulsive. First place: Playmania. Thus, we award the prise of BGT Pro Unlimited to Nikola Stojsic. Congratulations! We will now be taking down the games from our server, but of course we encourage the participants to host the files themselves so that these games are not lost. I feel that this competition worked out splendedly, and so I have plans to run another one either later this year or in the beginning of 2013.

They do look interesting. Fred Olver- Original Message - From: Matheus Rheine an...@bol.com.br To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2012 12:00 AM Subject: [Audyssey] ios game: hack run hey everybody! i just found a new accessible game for ios called hack run, actualy it's a series of 3 games, and there's a free version for the first one, the paid version of this first game costs 0.99 usd, and the other two games cost 1.99 each, becoming $5 total. voice over reads all buttons, only two buttons in the first screen are unlabeled but one of them is options and the other i don't remember, you can simple tap it to find it out. this game is a simulation game, during gameplay you will have the old ms dos prompt and your objective is to hack an organization, reading e-mails of users, accessing their data, accessing websites(the game even has an web browser for you to view the sites, and voice overs reads all!) in the upper part of the screen the text that appears will be displayed. note that you can't flick left and right to read this text, you need to touch the upper part of the screen and still with your finger on the screen move just a bit down to continue reading everything, you will get used to it. and in the lower part of the screen we have the normal keyboard which you can type commands. there's a help system for everything and the game has a very detailed ints system, allowing you to view the correct answer for a level if you are completely stuck. the game will require you to be connected to the internet because to access the ints system in the options it will search online, and to view websites with clues when you're playing you will also need to be online, the interesting thing that i found is that all websites mentioned in the storyline are real, obviously the company created them for the games, but it's quite nice. also if you play the start of this game you will think pretty basic... but i imagine the paid version and the other two games in the series are much much harder and have more content. lastly, this game doesn't help you hack in real life by any means, it's more of a puzzle game combining a bit of simulation and the idea of hacking. i hope you all enjoy the game, if you have any questions feel free to ask here. best regards! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] LWorks
I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but there is a cost saving in not having to build a keyboard for a computer. In fact, I'm not surprised we're not seeing more monitors with the ability to handle touch-screen commands.

That's because I don't believe it is practical to have to sit with a phone spending five minutes trying to access something when you could access the same thing on, say Simbian or XP in a matter of seconds. And if touch screen is the way forward, then I don't know what I'll be doing with computers because it'd be even worse. I couldn't imagine me having to be slow on a computer.

Not just on smart phones and tablet PCs but the next generation of Windows laptops and desktops will begin shipping with touchscreens as well. The way Windows 8 is designed instead of a start menu we now have a start screen with icons tiled across the screen in rows and columns like a table. Perfect for a touchscreen, or mouse but a pain in the rear if you try to get to those icons using a keyboard or buttons on a smart phone. However, love it or hate it I think touchscreen technology is here to stay. As for Apple's iPhone I personally don't think it is too bad. Yes, there is a learning curve involved, but like everything in life practice makes perfect. I understand your frustration, but I also sense perhaps you just gave up rather than sticking with it. A lot of us who have used iPhones just stuck with it until we figured it out. Rather than getting frustrated and throwing in the towel we practiced at it until we got good at using the phone. Cheers!

It just seemed like a total waste of time and money. And that's why now I wouldn't touch a touch screen device with a bargepole. As for Nokia now choosing Windows, that actually seems better, since there's a whole lot of games already out for Windows. Don't know how accessible it'll be, I suppose it depends how good current screenreaders support it. Though again if it's anything like or complex than Vista, I think I'll give it a miss. Probably just use it for phone calls and gaming. Regards, Damien. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Start with the regular game. The fighting practice should probably have been named survival mode, or something similar. The regular game itself actually does a good job of explaining what is going on and the descriptions of enemies are given as they're introduced. Secondly, turn off the music. There is a static sound near the center of each level which seems to be just an ambiance noise. Everything else in the enemies. Basically, use the arrow keys to move around in the area, the page up and page down keys do not work for me, and either get a line of sight to the enemy, which can be determined both by the stereo position and by the look feature, and use the control plus directional to fire at the enemy, or get as close as you can, drop a mine, and run.

Michael, Maybe what you need to do is re-load your Windows program, with the loading and unloading of a program that many times, it may be a possibility that you have inadverdently deleted a dll file which you need, so at the very least you might give some thought to doing a repair on your Windows program.

On another note, does anyone know of any accessible monopoly games or could one be created for online multi playing again, with the ability to play custom boards or to create your own boards? I would also be interested in the same for scrabble both online multi player and an accessible version for the IPhone.

Re: [Audyssey] Laser Tag
This Lazer Tag thing sounds great. I think it could turn out to be a great way to introduce blind folks to gaming. Fred Olver - Original Message - From: Dakotah Rickard dakotah.rick...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2011 8:20 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Laser Tag Ok, would you guys prefer something long written and detailed or spoken and detailed? If you guys want a decent review, there's plenty on youtube, like I said, but I'd be willing to do another especially for us and from our perspective with our needs. Either way, I'll try for conciseness, if you guys want, or I can just write. Either way, I want to give you guys as much info as I can. As I said also, I'm not buying the LTX, because I'm going to buy all the Light Strike I can. Obviously, the LTX stuff will have less of a review attached to it. Nerf bought stuff out from under that laser tag company and changed a few things. I honestly can't remember what they changed. However, I'll do what I can.

I'm bringing this up because of personal interest, because this is a gaming list, not necessarily just computers, and because I seriously think some folks would find this interesting. When I was a kid, I loved playing Lazer Tag, that's with a z and it's branded. My brothers and I had loads of fun shooting at each other, and they didn't always win, either. My set was basically just a couple of blasters that you velcroed onto your arm with a trigger and a button, with which you had unlimited ammo, a huge blast you could only use once, and a shield button that gave you a dinky five second protection from damage and sounded somewhat like a washing machine on overload. The health meter beeped at a certain rate to let you know how banged up you were, and the whole thing was so simple that to call it accessible is a joke, because it wasn't complicated enough to be unaccessible. A lot of my friends played Laser Challenge, which was nearly as accessible, but it was incompatible with my gun, so we never really played together, and why should a parent by another perfectly good laser tag system. Well, Lazer Tag with a z and Laser Challenge all kind of flopped away like used fads, not for me but for average consumers. I've been looking online for decent laser tag style stuff for years, now, with little success, unless I wanted to pay out the nose on Ebay or Amazon. However, in the space of just a month or so, I struck gold. My mom actually pointed out the product while we were talking about toys I might get for my kids, just as a neat little thought. She didn't know how meaningful it was for me. She told me about Light Strike laser tag, a new system from WowWee toys, a reputable company, most recently, before Light Strike, known for Paper Jams products. While researching this awesome system, I came across the Phoenix LTX, now the Nerf Two-Player Laser Battle System, yet another relatively new system based on an older, more expensive platform. I'm going to give a very brief overview of what I found from both systems, and what I want to know is do any people on this list care to have me do a more extensive review, possibly in podcast or youtube form, of the light Strike stuff, which I've actually handled and am in the process of purchasing? I can add to the plethora of reviews out there, but mine would add a few from the blind perspective. If you like, let me know. Anyway, I'll tell you about the Phoenix first, then I'll write on Light Strike, then I'll compare and contrast. The Phoenix LTX, which I'll shorten to LTX, is a roughly $70 U.S. set of two pistol-style laser guns. They have a Nerf sort of look to them, according to friends I've asked. They host switches and sliders to control any functions for setting up a game, unusual in an age of buttons and touchscreens. the LTX supports up to three different teams, although the older, no longer produced, LTTO system adds functionality and complexity. The guns feature a built-in recoil simulating hammer that wiggles the weapon when fired, and reloading feels more interactive, as you release a false clip and then smack it back into the grip of the weapon. The only other control is the shield trigger, located near the firing trigger, which allows you to burst your limited shield throughout play. It may or may

Re: [Audyssey] Close Topic Blind Gamers Being Taken Seriously?

Re: [Audyssey] am way excited! starbase orion!
I'm sure you are very excited, but why did you post this if the game can not be used by most of us on the list? Is it like seeing the previews of up-coming movies that are coming to the theater that you won't remember after you leave the movie you are seeing? I'd rather you just told me when it is usable and ready for play.

Ok people, So i don't know if any of you remember my saying that am helping to beta test a game for the iphone called starbase orion. Well in the first beta build I have seen some real improvements to the game. The basic idea of the game is to build up your empire by either exploration or conquest. You can choose your race or even make a custom one. The custom race option isn't yet accessible but the developer is working on that. We're testing things and refining things as we go. The whole game is turn based, you have to research, build explore design ships and all sorts. I've only begun to scratch the surface with this game. It's certainly not like your average browser based space game I can tell you that right now. You can give it a look on the ap store but it's not accessible in terms of being able to play it yet. More to the point the build I have isn't on the ap store yet I don't think. It's certainly exciting and it's great to be making a difference in the mainstream world of games on the I devices! --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Poll: playroom on iPhone or on mac

I'm going to you to have your opinion about that. IF you are interested, please let me know ! Depending on your answers, there will be followings or not. In other words if nobody give a response, then I will conclude that nobody is interested and therefore will definitely give up the idea. 1. Are you interested on a iPhone or mac version of the playroom ? why or why not ? If you would have to choose between the two but not both in the same time, whould you choose a mac or an iPhone version ? why ? 2. Considering that I don't have any apple machine myself, I will probably need to let such an application developped by a third partie. It will therefore certainly not be free. How much would you be ready to pay for that application ? The money whould be ideally shared between the developper of the application and a participation on server maintenance, in the best case 50-50, and in all case I wont ahve a direct control on the produced application. N.B. To not leave any doubts on that subject, the windows version will remain free as long as donations are sufficient to keep the server up. Please be constructive and complete in your responses. If you just say It'd be cool without any argumentation, please avoid posting.

Re: [Audyssey] what other old dos games would people like to see ported to the iPhone
Don't know if this would fall in to this category, but I used to play two games on Bulletin Board systems. They were Trade Wars and another one which slips my mind. These were multi-player games and you were allowed 60 minutes per day to play. You could go to other galaxies and destroy or plunder planets or develop your own planets moving items from place to place to develop planets and your fleet of fighters. They were much fun. I miss them very much. If anyone remembers these games and can suggest an alternative I would be very happy. Thanks in advance.

Speaking for myself, one game I would really like the ability to play on the iPhone is called humbug, its interactive fiction, but unusually the guy who wrote it didn't use a standard IF language, I think he wrote it in pascal. In fact he wrote several games, which he has now made freeware, though I don't think he released the source code to any of them. Jackaranda jim was also another funny one he did, though I was never able to beat that one. Humbug was cool because of the way all the puzzles were interconnected. Of course I can't use any of his games under windows 7 because it won't run 16 bit applications, but I have an old dos pc which I keep just for old games, its about 15 years old and still in full working order. To be honest I probably wouldn't play old dos style games that much, but they would be cool to have around for long car or train journeys. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Castaways version 2.5, final mission 5 added.
Oh, yah, you might give one of the games or two a try. Any questions, just call me. Fred - Original Message - From: Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com To: audyssey gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Monday, October 03, 2011 9:29 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Castaways version 2.5, final mission 5 added. Version 2.5 has just been posted, and I believe everyone will be happy with the additions. The list is long so I'll try to remember it all. - The toggle that lets you adjust the game's pauses from long to short, now also includes an option to remove them completely. - If you get tired of using E and R to search through the different job types, you'll be happy to know that shortcuts have been added. Hold Alt, and press the starting letter for a job to have it selected. For example, Alt + F would select your farmers, then Alt + F again would list fishermen. - When you pause the game, if there are currently any backlogged messages it will speak the number. So if you pause and hear the word 3 announced, you will know to press the guave (~) key to hear those messages before unpausing. - Kai provided an updated set of game sounds. A few have changed due to people's requests, but there are also many new sounds that play at different times. If you are using a custom Sound pack, don't worry because it will still work exactly the same as it did before. - I fixed a rare cook and bartender bug that could cause them to freeze and stop serving food or drinks. - I've recoded many sections of code in order to improve performance and speed up the game on slower machines. I hope everyone notices a difference! - Destroying or selling a building will now close the building menu. It used to require you to press escape before you were back in the game. - Fixed a bug that wouldn't allow any random disasters to happen in Easy mode. Normally none happen, but when using the Murphy's law fault, it is possible for them to happen now, although they will be super rare. - There is now a new rare random disaster that can destroy one of your walls! - When using and to review internet chat messages, emote messages would show *M3* at the end. This is fixed now. - Fixed a bug that could affect enemy raid groups. - When a baker bakes bread, it now tells you the specific number of loaves he baked. - Fixed a few spelling errors that were pointed out. - Victory messages are now handled differently to prevent you from accidentally clearing with a key press. - And finally, the big news! Castaways' final mission has been added. Mission 5! Mission 5 adds 2 new buildings, adds a new feature to 2 existing buildings, a new job type, a new unit type, and 2 new resources. If you manage to beat this final mission, you will be rewarded with a very long story. I have no doubt that the story will get people excited, especially if you figure out the connections it makes. I wish everyone luck on a truly challenging end to the Castaways game. Please enjoy it, and I will turn my attention back to new multiplayer content for the game.

Re: [Audyssey] accessible games for android
Daron, Although I have downloaded many games for the i-phone, some from Storm8 and some from Luken, I'd be interested in learning which games you recommend or have used which you find playable by totally blind individuals? Fred Olver - Original Message - From: Darren Harris darren_g_har...@btinternet.com To: 'Gamers Discussion list' gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 7:18 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] accessible games for android Hi, Talking about the iphone, I have to admit that I was somewhat dubious about it before I got one. Now I have, I really do think that they are the way to go. Voiceover works brilliantly in my opinion. Yes it takes a great deal of getting used too but it's worth the learning curve if you ask me. The lack of a touch keyboard did put me off for a long long time but voiceover gets round this quite well. I have also used voiceover on the net to a degree. I've checked my account at http://www.gamestotal.com for my unification wars game that I play, it works on there as well and that's a pretty html intensive page there. It's also very good where gaming is concerned, because you don't always have to use the screen to get where you're going, you can tilt the phone in various ways to play certain types of games. Certainly I would advise you to give an iphone device a good go because it is well worth it. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of alex wallis Sent: 15 September 2011 12:18 To: gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] accessible games for android Hi sean, I did a bit of googling last night, and ran across stem stumpers, which is available for I phone and android, but to date that is the only game for android I have come across, and it doesn't even sound two exciting. you are right about symbian being discontinued in favour of windows phone 7, and although I just got a nokia e7 to try it out, I am beginning to feel its more hastle than its worth, as the keyboard part just isn't well designed, its so easy to knock the touch screen with your hand while texting. and although with mobile speak this isn't a huge problem, I do find the home screens on symbian 3 pathetic, only being able to have 4 shortcuts per screen is just stupid, and both mobile speak and talks don't read all icons on the home screen, plus interacting with a phone switchboard system isn't very easy, especially selecting numbers on the touch screen. although I could open the phone to physically dial in the numbers once on the phone I don't see why I should have to. the I phone is tempting, but I don't like the voices I have heard so far on it, and although I guess I could get a blutooth keyboard, its just more equipment to lug around, and I would need to keep it charged up. plus I couldn't easily stand around in a public place and text with it like I could do with a phone that has a physical keyboard, as I would have to have the I phone in one hand, and keyboard in another. unfortunately I think its unlikely the I phone will ever get a physical keyboard, given that steve jobs hates physical buttons, and feels that devices should be asthetically pleasing and easy for the sighted world to use. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Nothing is set in stone so this might be different later. At the moment ctrl+o will pop up the list box of tracks that are found in the tracks folder that can be selected. when on a track doing stuff, ctrl+s will save the current state of things so that one can close the train and then run the program again and find they're right where they were doing exactly what they were doing when they hit ctrl+s. So you can be going 85 miles per hour and press ctrl+s, close the train, open it again and you're going 85 miles per hour, traveling right where you were when you saved. Orriginally, it saved when you closed the train but it looks like not everyone is going to want it to work that way so at the moment saving is an option. the info is saved in an .ini file called train.ini. that file can be deleted to cause the train to pop up the dialogue as soon as you open the train for you to select a track. This should allow us to just delete th at .ini file when we distribute and everyone who tries it out will get generic behavior. harun mentioned the speed limit system we were thinking about. Basically you use two objects that are pretty much just going to be signs. One will set the speed limit and the other will remove it so you can get up a good head of steam again. When pulling up to a station it's hard, both in reality and in this simulator to stop when you want to. You'll pass the station or stop too soon, or find you're about a quarter of a mile from it but going too slowly to be there any time inside of a decade. You get old waiting on it and speed things up a bit, only to go zooming past the station before you're aware of the fact. So we put in a beep that only plays if you're moving under 5 miles per hour. The beep indicates when you're within 0.0001 miles of what ever object you happen to be that close to. for a station this allows you to stop pretty darned close to where you want. You listen for that beep. You hear it and you hold down the letter k until the train comes to a hault. the beep only plays if you're moving and at a rate of under 5 miles per hour. So if you're zooming along you don't have to worry about that beep getting in the way of sound effects. - Original Message - From: Valiant8086 To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2009 9:01 PM Subject: [Audyssey] New accessible train simulator in development Sorry if you guys get this twice. The .ini track loading system is in, but is still broken a bit and needs some serious work to get it to actually work like it's supposed to. It would appear, at least for now, that using .ini files doesn't slow the main loop down enough to bother with. this is good. At the moment we have an every day list box that popps up when you go to pick a track. The tracks are listed in there and the file extention is on the end, ini. Don't know if we should remove the extention from the list or not. You select the track you want and then tab to the ok button and press that. Right now all of the game except that is self voicing, though we considered using the API for the screen reader if a compatible one happened to be running to speak stuff instead of SAPI. We aren't using any key commands yet that a screen reader could conflict with, but when key echo is on it's kind of bothersome as you hold down a button, like the letter i, to accelerate and the screen reader keeps saying the letter over and over again. I know a way to make the track select list box speak with SAPI if necessary. Don't know if the ok button could be spoken or not. We're using all SAPI for now and probably going to keep using a synthesizer of some sort since things are going to be so generic. When we have object names and such loading from a .ini file that anyone can create with any name they can think of, audio voiceovers won't work for reading names of those objects and all that good stuff. I wouldn't mind using the dll version of ESpeak to tell the trooth. Right now the tr ain sim is portable. We're going to keep it that way if we can. There is no installer. You just download it, unzip
Re: [Audyssey] Muds on audiogames.net
on the subject of muds I expect there many folks who, like myself could benefit from some sort of tutorial on how to use them, where to find them etc. Fred Olver - Original Message - From: john jpcarnemo...@comcast.net To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Friday, September 02, 2011 6:55 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Muds on audiogames.net Hi Dark, I don't really play a lot of online games, alteraeon being the exception. Nevertheless, here goes to answer your question: Personally, I'd add entries for muds that have a unique theme and/or style. You might also add muds that have soundpacks, as you're already doing. As a bit of a comprimise, you might consider adding a section in the review where you provide a list where similar muds to the one in the review are listed. This would provide players with a base mud, (the one in the review) but would also givve them a you might want to try this list. Hopefully all this makes sense, I'm not really sure how clear I'm being.
