Thank you so much @TrampolineTales for your work on making this accessible with a screenreader!
If I'm understanding this correctly, right now it's unfortunately unclear to a screenreader user how exactly the symbols are laid out, since arrowing around skips empty spots. So until all the symbols are filled, the exact lining up of the symbols is impossible to tell.
Would you maybe consider adding a gameplay option to allow the arrow keys to focus empty spots, and/or have the clipboard text reflect the focused position (e.g. "Pearl Common Gives Coin 1 Pearl row 1 column 4" or even just " 1 4")? I think having either one (or ideally both) of these would pretty much make this as playable as it gets.
Absolutely love the game, thanks for making it! Going for floor 20 streaks is great fun! I'll share a couple of requests / reports, in the event the dev reads through this comment and thinks they are pertinent!
- Is there a way to unlock floor 20 straight away, and if not, would you consider adding a 'unlock floor 20' button in Options? I ask because I bought the game on other platforms and would love to go straight back to floor 20 streaks and not have to spend time unlocking everything.
- I'd suggest that a warning always appeared when clicking "Start" with an ongoing game, and not just one in endless mode (for instance, this can make one lose a long floor 20 streak).
- I play mostly on mobile (though have bought it here too to support the dev) and sometimes (on mobile) I get an error text when clicking the inventory button. I am not able to replicate this yet, and unfortunately haven't taken a screenshot. It has happened maybe 3 times in ~200 runs.
Anyways, that's all I had. This game is amazing and I'm glad I gave it a go. Perfect for mobile too!
About the potential banning on Google Play, just in case it does get to that, maybe it’d be a good idea to publish the game elsewhere too? Games as APK files are supported both here on Itchio and on Humble Bundle, publishing Android games on Steam might be possible as DLC, and Amazon has an Android appstore akin to Google Play.
This game is just as addicting as Balatro, I found out about this thanks to someone providing a copy for a blind gamer's marathon stream this weekend. I have only one question, is this accessible with Voiceover on iOS? I would love to grab this and further support this amazing work if so.
