Hi Jim,
Very interesting. I didn't know what you did for a living before. I'm
glad you shared that with us.
Smile.

Hi Michael,
Thank you very much. I really appreciate the very kind things that you said
about me and my games.
Keep up the great work at college and take Doc for a walk.
Thanks again.

Hi Thomas,
I lived in the first house behind the bank on Bellfield Avenue, which is off of
Cedar Avenue just out of University Circle. I could see Case University out my
bedroom window and it was close to a mile walk to the Cleveland Sight Center.
I had to be at the bus stop by 6:30 to catch

Well, I can as well, but you have to be a bit careful. I've had occasions
that I spilt water on the floor. I use a liquid indicater

Water was just an example, obviously people have a different milage with
such things.
Glad you think this is going in the right direction though.

hi, actually i can pour water without the use of my finger and I never
spill. I have zero sight. All that aside though, I agree with most of
your points.

Hi Jim,
Oh, I here you there. Now, that is something I think we all can
understand. I've been there, and I think most of us have at one time
or another. Losing things, trying to find them and of course the
transport time to get from place to place is simply rediculous.
For instance, I remember th
Hey, Jim.
I can say alot of things about you but I will say one thing that say it all.
I enjoy all your games and have alot of highly respect for you.
As you are one of my good friends and one of my game creater I have to
say thanks for all that you do and all of your time in your games.

Hi Dark,
To me being blind does seem to take more time and concentration and add more
stress. Just little things like when I get out of my computer chair I can not
tell you how many times I was still thinking about code and did not pay
attention to where I was going and ran into the corner of
Hi Tom.
This isn't to say such things can't be got used to, only that the
accompanying effort is vastly different.
Take mobility. How easy would it be for you if you needed to go to a new
place? How much extra concentration would it take learning your way around?
However good your mental map
Hi Dark,
Ah, I get your point now. Well, that may effect someones ability to
write games, plus have a wife, plus work, etc but I do disagree with
it to some point. After all, I do manage to essentually carry on USA
Games even though I have several other commitments as well each and

Actually tom, while travel and access issues are certainly a considderation,
that wasn't precisely my point.
One easy example of what I mean (and one I use in the introduction to my
thesis), is pouring a glass of water.

Hi Dark,
Yeah, that's definitely a good point. Its not just the fact of the 40
hour work week, having a family life, but everything does take a
little more time just because of our disability in a lot of cases.
Here in the USA, for example, its generally assumed you can see to
drive a car. That m
There is then the fact that if the developer is blind himself, everything
takes considderably more energy.
while I fully appreciate what Tom is saying, this does not seem to be half
the case with indi developers of graphical games.

Hi Charles,
That's exactly the point I think people often miss. It is much much
more complicated than just the 40 hours a week a person spends at his
her job. They forget people have to have some sort of personal life
too which is as equally important as the day time job. Once you put an
average p
Hey, Charles.
I do understand that because I am in college now. I try to find some
time to play some games at least a couple of times a week.
I hope everyone who makes games for the blind don't stop. I do respect
and think alot of those who take their time out of their daily life and
create g
How much spare time do you have, Michael? Maybe you can make games for the
blind, too? I'll tell you that if you have a full time job, it's not just
the 40 hours a week you spend at it. I leave at around 7 in the morning,
get home at almost 6 at night. Then there's dinner, taking care of som
