I was playing the demo Last night and noticed something really interesting. If this game had voice-over (recorded comentary) and a few modifications were made to the input system (more keyboard input) this game would open up a whole new market... The Blind. This game does not require the player to respond to visual effects on screen, so it would be ideal for a blind person to enjoy.


Also, the model for Coliseum could also be applied to other sports simulations. You might have found the ideal medium to bring interesting games to the blind.

This is honking brilliant! You'd need a *very* comprehensive bunch of keyboard shortcuts, but as a genre it is perfect.

Parents of the disabled are often absolutely desperate for entertainment the kid can do independently. Huge market, and a generally spiffy humanitarian idea as well.

Kudos to David!
