I am a blind programmer.
I have been working on making an accessible rpg in jarvascript.
The link to a working copy of the game is:
https://github.com/Utopianii/text-based … 20so%20far
Not all features work yet and there is little variety at the moment but I am working on it and plan to expand it a lot.
I would like some ideas and criticisms please.

You will need to paste this link in front of the original to play.

Thank you

You're very welcome.

I also shared it on my Twitter page.

I like it. I made it to the tower so far, looking forward to when I can climb it. Also wondering what the blacksmith will eventually do as well.

They have been expanded aswell as some new stuff added and some small bugs have been fixxed.
The url cannot be posted on facebook for some reason?

Are you referring to the short URL i made? or the longer git hub one.

I can't wait to check out the new updates you made to your expanding world.

Hi,
I really like what you've done! I was actually thinking of something similar the other day, so I'm glad someone's done it!

Good work!

Updated.
I need some ideas for a story and more monster names please

If you make a website on Github you can post the link to the website in the readme and you will also get a shorter URL.
I would like it if you put a role="status" in the screen element, that way when I go a direction I don't need to press ctrl+home and read down the new text, I will just need to listen to the new text. I will also know right away when I move.
Note that you could also make shortcut keys for walking each direction like n, e, w, s.

Things I would like to see are messages if I can't go somewhere, a pause in time while I'm looking at stats so I don't get attacked, a little weaker monsters, a story line.
Here are a few ideas for stories:
1. The roil twins, Princess Cavana and prince Joe is trapped in the tower with an evil sorceress. You need to save them.
2. You are a young wizard who wishes to train with the masters in the tower, but when you get to the tower, the tower is empty. You need to find where the wizards went.
3. You are a peasant boy who ran away from home because he wanted to be a mercenary. You need to follow caravans around the country, protecting them and leveling up. With your money you can either buy better weapons and armor, training or send it back to your family. You eventually need to become independently wealthy. This means there should be groups of mercenaries you train to work for you or you can invest in different merchants and protect them as well.

I would also love sounds to play. Look at howler JS.

I will look into the keypress controls and roll text, Ive been working with my iPhone for every thing so far and didn't consider that earlier.
I like the second and third stories.
I will fix up the attack times tomorrow and change up the enermies.

Ok that was easier than expected, I didn't test much but in the character screen you should be safe now.
I also just added the role="status" attribute.
How do I make a website on github?
