Bravo. I am a blind player. I use a screen reader, called NVDA, on windows, also free,. This thing's playable. You didn't do an ascii map as far as I can tell. THe map acts as a tutorial, and the text reads just fine.
I do have a suggestion. When first starting the game, could you explicitly write a thing at the very beginning making a note to press a key once the current text finishes? I wasn't sure whether to wait, or press a key. The screen would only have to appear once, when first activating new game, just after you've entered username and character name, but just before the main character wakes up. I'm not entirely sure what the screen would say, but it'd be a brief intro just explaining to enjoy the story and press space when each section of the story finishes. Maybe a sort of welcome screen saying you are about to embark on an rpg adventure or something simple like that. As I write this, I'm currently at the Bus Stop fhghting the tumbleweed. So far, I've explored the stats menu, the autosave settings, and all those menus read.
