Hey Nick, I downloaded the game about a month ago, and it blew me away. It's ground-breaking--revolutionary even. The problem, though, is that I was playing it on an old Pac-Mate display, and those things aren't exactly known for having great design. After a few slow starts, I went to do something else, and then life happened. I'm actually in the market for a new Braille display now, and I'd like to pick it back up when I get one. At that point, I'm happy to make a donation. You really have put something incredible together. You should be commended for your work, and Clear Vision definitely deserves the assistance. All the best, Ryan

Hi all. Well N A Soft released Dotris, our game for Braille displays about a month ago and today we had our 100th download. Something which seems quite hard to Believe. As I'm sure your all aware that Dotris was developed to publicize Braille, something I've been doing with a small UK based charity, the ClearVision library who I chose to support with Dotris. ClearVision have been really pleased with the amount of publicity they have had through Dotris and have told me there pleased to be involved with a project like it. If you've no idea what Dotris is check out www.ndadamson.com. I was also hoping to raise money for ClearVision as well as getting them publicity. I've been really disappointed that no users have made a donation. Its quite clear on the website and in the game that its not free. There are 3 reasons I can think of why users haven't donated. 1. They can't afford to. I'm well aware that money is tight and that there isn't a lot of spare cache in peoples wallets. If this is the case then how about asking for it as an alternative Christmas gift. I'm more than happy to send out emails to users stating that someone has made a donation on there behalf. Just get in contact with me via the website and we can work it out. 2. I'm not sure if users know how easy it is to make a donation. Remember that you don't need to register to make a donation and your details are completely secure. I never see any account details and all payments are handled by a large trustworthy company. If you have concerns in this area which have stopped you donating then again get in touch and I can answer any questions you've got. 3. You don't value the game. If this is the case then I'd love to here from you to find out how I can improve it. I can be contacted through my website or twitter, @n_a_soft Thanks.
