I recently found a masterpost on Tumblr which
gave links to various RPG makers and other free
resources. The list was rich in information and
I'm hoping to create an RPG based on the novel
series I'm writing, so I'm reposting it for my own reference.
The thing is, I have yet to find any game that
is screen-reader friendly, or at least
NVDA-friendly. Being blind myself, I want the
game I make to be playable by me and anyone else
who is blind or has such low vision that the
images would be of no use to them. I did
download a demo for a game at one point, but I
couldn't navigate around the opening screen, let
alone get anywhere else with it. :(
I'm a Pokémon fan, and have also watched various
family members playing an array of video games
(okay, I didn't watch them, but you get my
drift). I've wanted to be able to play games on
my own for years, but the industry seems
determined to thwart me. I therefore want to
create a game that screen-reader users can play
and enjoy. Is this an impossible dream, or will
I need a specific program to achieve my
long-term goal? Can you recommend anything? Can
NVDA be made compatible with RPG games played on
the computer in future if it isn't already so with certain types of games?
