[games_access] The Archaist

[Barrie Ellis]

Hi Robert,

You are right. The actual game itself can be played with mouse clicks, but the menu navigation can not. I'll pass this onto Michi. If you had been able to assign the SPACE bar to your click then you'd be able to play.

I'm wondering if it would be convenient for you to use your Quadcontroller on your PC with JoyToKey. I'm assuming that you could set it up to act as a Mouse with left and right click - but find another couple of comfortable controls to trigger SPACE and ESCAPE. This would open up 99% of one-switch games.

You could also play Archaist with emulated mouse control too, although I've not actually tried this.

  I tried out the game Archaist and unfortunately you can't play with just a click of a mouse.  Apparently I think you have to use keyboard commands which I can't access at all on my laptop.  I downloaded it and played it but it would not respond to my clicking.

  Michi Andersson has added a huge number of improvements to highly accessible game, The Archaist:

   

  http://www.michi.nu/games/archaist/version.php

   

  These include some superb options for sight-impaired gamers, such as high-contract modes, inverted modes, alternative colour schemes and text to speech options.

   

  Fantastic!

   

  There are also a number of new one-switch games featured in the one-switch library: http://www.oneswitch.org.uk/2/switch-downloads.htm - with many more to come when I find the time...
