Well, I did buy A Lot of Zeroes :) It's definitely elaborate. I'm not sure how to emulate the dice dropping mechanism but am sure I can come up with something.


I will grab Sixty Years when I can, as that kind of near future stuff appeals to me a great deal.

Oh wow. I might have to check that out just for the sheer scale :)


And yeah, Google Sheets is another way to expose complex data. TO be honest I love LaTeX source but would understand why you might not want to provide that. 


Thanks for being encouraging/open to this question. It's very much appreciated.

Wonderful insights. :)


I did make a CLI-based program which lets me navigate around the system. IT's not perfect but lets me explore a bit. I wonder if IC an use that somehow.


Your update also sounds promising. I guess I hsould buy things as they stand now and see how it looks. I'm mostly just wondering about the best way to track things electronically since, obviously, colored dice etc. aren't practical. 

I actually work in accessibility so am happy to help out however I can with formatting and so on. PDF is tricky but not impossible to do right. If the original source document is available that might be better to begin from.


Thanks for getting back to me :)

Hi there,


I'm writing as a huge fan of hard sci-fi conceptually who happens to be totally blind. I recently stumbled across mention of 60 Years in Space on Reddit, and was intrigued to say the least.


Unfortunately I lack access to the High Frontier map, which seems to be essential for play. Nevertheless I want to figure out a way to explore the game with all the narrative, procedural events and so on.


I wondered if you had any ideas for making the experience a little more accessible for me. It seems to me that the fundamental problem is informational. IF I can figure out a way to notate mission phases, events happening and so onthings will be a lot easier. IT's a hurdle fo presentation, more or less.


If you have any thoughts on this question I would love to know. I feel like there's a lot of fun to be had here personally if I can figure out how to get over the hump of how do I start?


Thanks much,

Zack.

Hi there,


I hope you're well. I've been thinking about RoE lately, as a game I've never been able to play but always wanted to. 


Is this no longer available? I am a totally blind user, and would love to be able to experience this game if at all possible. The DOS (GOG) version does not work at all, alas.


I realize the chance it will work with my screen reader is rather slim, but I would very much like to at least give it a try and see if it's possible :)


Thanks for any info on this. I realize the odds of a reply are somewhat poor but figured I'd reach out anyway.
