Hi Lisa, Yes. Not only could it help blind students improve their computer skills, help them with their schooling, but a handful of these children's games might help raise the awareness of blind games over all. Plus I don't imagine children's games would cost too much to develop and market.
One reason an agency like NFB or state school for the blind wouldn't support a game like Shades of Doom is because it isn't very educational, is violent, and the price tag makes it expensive to license for any kind of school network. However, develop a Jeopardy game or a Trivial Per suit game and give it away as shareware and NFB or some state school might be willing to take it and put it on their servers for kids to play because it is educational and fun, and also can be played by adults too for that matter. If it is not too expensive state run institutions and agencies might even pay for it just because it is the kind oof game that will appeal to everyone. Cheers!
