Hi Tom.
I seem to remember hearing an interview with Jim Kitchin at one point which
that the first actual audio game which used sound rather than just writing
text to the screen was on the eureaca or one of those other specialist
braille machines.
I think it was a shoot aliens type of game, but as I've never owned any of
those specialist braille things I don't know for certain, still I remember
Jim Kitchin saying he got some inspiration from that to create actual games
with representative sound, sinse after all in the dos days there were lots
of text games being produced by many developers anyway, indeed I'm a little
sorry I never found out about them as a teenager and was only given a laptop
with windows 3.1 on to work and never thought you could do something as
interesting as play games on it, ---- it certainly wouldn've improved my
computer skills if I had.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
