There are probably some Apple games that blind people cannot play unless they have Apple machines, too. One that comes to mind is, I think, either Escape or Kidnapped, I don't remember which. You are on the ninth floor of a building and have to make your way out. There was word play involved. I've never played it, only heard of it from a friend, and that was several years ago.

That sounds great actually tom.

I've heard a good deal about Oregon Trail, but haven't turned up anything, ---- probably because aple basic stuff is harder to run.

It'll be really nice to finally get to play it, and to have a version which can be run on modern machines.

I'm always rather sad when really great games can't be played anymore.

Beware the Grue!

Hi Dark,

Yeah. It isn't much as a game, but it should be pretty compatible with
anything that runs Python appplications. I'd imagine it would run on a
Braille Plus and similar devices since it has a Python interpreter
built in.  There are also Python versions for Windows CE so that means
I might be able to run the game on smart phones, notetakers, and
various things too. It has possibilities as a free simple game. I know
right now I'm playing the game on Linux, and getting my tail kicked by
the dealer. He is a really mean card shark.

Now, the next game I'll release is Oregon Trail as I know that game in
particular is in demand. I only have it partly finished, and I think
that will be really fun revisiting the classic Apple II games of my
childhood in a new and totally cross-platform version.

Smile.

Ah, I missed this, ow irritating!

I'll see about some news, sinse even though we do have working accessible
blackjack, hopefully people will find both the cross platform bit and
example code interesting.

Beware the Grue!
