Hi. I used to be in to the blind gaming stuff quite a bit. Not so much now. There are some websites to check out. www.Audiogames.net (I think its .net, could be .com or .org.) www.pcsgames.net has a massive list of blind accessible games some free, some commercial. HTH.

Hi. I will be giving a talk at Libre Software Meeting 2010 in Bordeaux about the above mentioned topic. I do know some things but I am actually no hardcore gamer type of guy. So I was thinking that it would be very interesting to hear about your personal experiences so that I can avoid forgetting about really cool things. I should probably explain that this talk is in the context of a free software conference, but I am not really limiting myself to free and open source games only. This is not to promote non-free software, rather the contrary, I'd like to inspire people to maybe start working on free clones of the already existing ideas. So, if you are blind or visually impaired and you have played any kind of computer games in the past, please let me know about it. Was the game especially designed for your disability, or did you use any tricks to make it playable? If so, what tricks did you use? Or do you perhaps know of any (alive) open source project which is somehow related to gaming for the blind? Let me know about it. And please reply fast, I am in the middle of preparing the actual slides, so the earlier I get your story the more likely I will be able to weave it in properly. Thanks. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger mlang/key@xxxxxxxxxxxxx : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/> _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
