Hi Thomas, Well, a chance meeting is a chance meeting. If someone outside the blind community saw this game, if they are thinking for example to make a law sute against you, then in order to properly make a case against you they would logically have to look at the game, both in terms of how it's played, code etc so on and so forth. I'm not saying they will go down that road, but in order to make a case logically or I would have thought, someone would have to play the game, a programmer look at the code etc to see what the viability of such a case would be. Not that they would say such things at the start logically there's no reason why they should. Now, lets assume for a moment that someone has done as I have already outlined. To look at the game from as many angles as they can. They will see what you've done and how you have done it. They may even be able to play the game without the use of eyes and I don't mean that patronisingly. It's very difficult initially when you are used to playing games by looking, to switch over to pure audio. Something a total from birth could not understand. In principle yes but not in reality. So think of it like this. They could just as easily let this whole thing go. But at the very least you've got a bit of exposure. At worced they could make a case against you. But as you have said you doubt very much that they will. At best? You've earn't some outside curiosity which may well help to spread the word with regards to making games accessible for blind people.

I am not treating this as a big deal. Like you I think they are just cureous more than anything else. Darren Harris wrote: > Well yes I mean what's in a name anyway.
