Thanks for the recommendation! I'll definitely check him out. I see he has a video on Stardew Valley which definitely interests me since I want to be able to make a farming game but I wouldn't know how to effectively make that blind accessible. The text to speech part is easy but I wonder how they would know where they can and can't plant, whether it's watered, what stage its in, etc. Though I could probably make that information available at a button press using text to speech.
Oh wow! That sounds really complex. O_O I would have no idea how to do that. lol. When I tried making my own DDR game, I wanted it to be really basic and casual. Just tap your finger to the beat. If you look up the song "False God" from Talos Principle, that's the song I was using for my prototype. You'd tap your finger to the piano.
I do know data management, though. My Brick Breaker game utilizes a simple high score system. It has a save and delete button and when you get a high score, you can type in your name to save that data. If that's the kind of system you want, I can show you the code I used for it.
Yeah, I played a LOT of DDR in college. It was always on beginner mode but that didn't matter. I had so much fun. <3 May I ask how you got the potions to spawn to the beat? I've dabbled with making a simple DDR type game myself and manually putting cues to the beat is EXTREMELY precise and time-consuming. I'm glad to hear you'll keep working on it! You have an excellent prototype to work with. :)
Thanks for trying it out. :) Yep, it's very possible to make games for blind people. I already have a few on Itch that have been tested and approved by blind people. If you want to see how it's done, you can freely download and play them. Some of them require a controller for the full experience since I have rumble features. I usually put in the description if a controller is recommended.
Tow minutes? Wow! Yeah, that's something designers have to keep in mind. A game is ALWAYS harder than you think. Landing on the platform itself was hard since if you didn't time it perfectly, you wound up halfway into it. lol. Then if you didn't jump right away like you said, then you slide right off. Or hit your head and then don't make it all the way.
