Re: Mists of Audazzle
@orin, according to the e-mail I got from the audazzle mailing list the signup form then requires your e-mail address and isn't accessible which isn't good.
@Audazzle, on the one hand I'm very pleased the game has been released on Ios and I look forward to trying it. On the other I am extremely disappointed that a company committed to game access would publicize this announcement:
If you are blind when you reach incarnation
level the signup form is not compatible with
voiceover. So in order to register, you may need
to ask a trusted friend to help fill out the simple
form (only email is required). Our latest
development version that overcomes this issue
has been submitted to Apple but it can take a
long time to get an update approved.
If a thing requires this level of sighted assistance it is not accessible, indeed it also buys in to a hole bunch of irritating cultural sterriotypes that I could list at le ngth.
I must confess I was greatly disappointed by this particularly after reading audazzle's commitment to access, and in all honesty I cannot countinance audiogames.net writing any news about the game until this issue is fixed, sinse we exist to support "accessible" games, not games requiring sighted assistance.
Furthermore, to be brutally honest I'm also disappointed that a form requiring e-mail was the stumbling block here. Ios is full of forms that require e-mail, look at the choiceofgames subscription forms as an example, heck there is a major form to fill in to setup a person's Apple Id right when you start with Ios.
While I could understand some delay in access terms if this was say labelling a complex graphical interface, I am rather confused as to why this occurs with a form sinse it should by rights have been a very simple affair.
Okay, I'll remove the ranting trousers now.
I am extremely glad an update to fix the problem is already in the works, and when the problem is! fixed I'll be pleased to try the game myself, which will also let me add it to our database, indeed please very much keep us notified of this and I'll post some news as soon as we get the fixed version.
