Thank you so much for the great feedback!! This was all our first time participating in this jam and creating a game focused on blind gamers, so every piece of your feedback is extremely valuable. The point about having sounds indicating walls, doors, and items, completely makes sense and these types of changes will definitely be in future games. I can't speak for the whole team, but I definitely need to research more about JAWS vs. NVDA for the next jam. Thank you again! Excited to create even better and more accessible games moving forward!

Great response, thanks!
IMO you guys should be proud of what you accomplished in this jam, regardless of the final product. As someone who's helped with jam games my self, I know what it's like on both sides of the Equation. Getting a top spot in the ratings feels awesome, but you learn allot either way. All the sub goals that were completed still teach you valuable skills, and the information you gather from feedback about things that didn't work well can help you pinpoint what you need to learn more about for the next time.
As for the NVDA and JAWS thing, definitely join the jam discord and we'll be happy to help. There are some experienced blind coders in there.
