Hi all,

Pretty sure this will be a Steam game only, but check this video out containing the accessibility options.

Its basically a proceedurally generated adventure game with a story and other modes.

I'm really excited for this game and added it to my steam wishlist.

I do wonder though how playable it'll be for totally blind people, the description sounds like there's an emphasis on platforming more than combat, so the screen reader might be more helpful for low vision people to ease reading text. Of course I'm very much hoping we'll all be able to play it and for all I know I'm worrying over nothing, because this is arguably as big as Skullgirls and the visual novels getting screen reader support all those years ago and we haven't had anything like this happen with a mainstream game in a very long time! smile

Hi.
Maybe I just suck at using Twitter, but I don't find any link which let me watch the video. I only find a link to Steam.

Best regards SLJ.
Feel free to contact me privately if you have something in mind. If you do so, then please send me a mail instead of using the private message on the forum, since I don't check those very often.

I wouldn't get too many hopes up, rather than an adventure game it's actually a pretty demanding platformer. AFAIK the motivation for screenreader was low vision rather than no vision.
