Re: [Audyssey] dungeons and empires 2 released... noa ccessibility

2011-01-28 Thread Anouk Radix
Hi, I contacted him, because HE sent me a mail introducing the new game. He 
said the accessibility mode isnt in yet. Not sure if he is working on it 
though.

Greetings, Anouk,

Last I heard, niels was working on access features in empires and dungeons 
and I've been in discussion with him about ways to make a screen reader 
accessible map for the game.


It's entirely possible though, that this mode isn't ready yet and won't be 
out for another version or two, pluss will take some beta testing to get 
right.


As Anyone who remembers the initial releases of smugglers 4 will know, 
it'll work out in the end.


i would however urge people to write supportive comments on niels' blog 
and express interest in a compatibility mode for the game, sinse that 
gives him far more motivation to work on it.


Beware the grue!

Hi all, matheus, who's also on this list, just tolled me that DNE2 came 
out. Now the surprising thing it does not appear accessible. Well the map 
part. He said he tried clicking on things and it didn't work, and there's 
no compatibility mode in options.
Needless to say, I am quite surprised. Perhaps dark or anyone else that's 
been in contact with Neil can shed some light on this.
