Lots of luck getting that to happen. It'll probably take a lot more money to
persuade mainstream game developers to allow that. Books are one thing but
games are quite another.

Subject: [Audyssey] drastic change needed for audio games
Hi
Here is what I think the problem is.
First, game developers on this list should decide on starting a company,
not just one person, but maybe 4 or 5 people, or more.
2. persons involved in the game company should decide on a standard
programming language because if you each choose a language, it won't work.
3. once decided upon, stick to that language, each person should be
assigned a task. for starters you may set up a website with a free game or
two, asking for donations to your company.
4. two people may work on writing game engines, another may work on just
getting sound effects, another or maybe all of them work on game plots.
5. with more than one programmer say 4 or 5 people working together on
games, the games will be great, and take less time to create.
6. If you doo make a really cool game, then you could probably charge more
for it. but then there's the issue of copyright.
Hmmm lets back up here a minute. maybe before we really have the liberty
to make games for the blind, we gotta hammer the nfb and ACB to change the
video game law so it states.
any sounds, graphics, and music characters and storyLines which exist in
video games for sighted people, may be coppied and redistributed, as long
as the game is in a specialized format for people with disabilities. in
other words lets do what we do with games, like we already do withh books.
books in braille and audio nls books and daisy are specialised formats for
blind people. so lets apply that to video games. lets change the law so
that we can make games using sounds music, characters stories from the
original game company's game, but since the game is in a specialised
format for disabled folks, it therefore is legal to use said sounds music
stories and characters in the audio game. since essentially an audio game
is a tye of video game, in a specialised format, for folks with
disabilities, so they can enjoy games as well.
