Audio games are interactive games played on a computer or smart phone that usually have very little or no graphics. Audio games can have the simplest of interfaces that utilize a screen reader. They can also be fully immersive and interactive with 3-D sound effects, actors and musical scores.
Before the Games
On this weeks episode of the Life After Blindness Podcast, I begin by talking about some of the things that have been happening to me over the past year during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, I share several stories from listeners about the issues they’ve had navigating the pandemic as someone who is blind or visually impaired.
Shall We Play a Game?
Next up, I interview Liam Erven from L-Works Games. Through L-Works, Liam produces affordable computer games for those with visual impairments.Liam and I talk about what audio games are and how he got into creating them. Liam also talks about some of the games he has developed and gives his opinion on the future of audio gaming.
