Hi Josh,

AbleGamers did a exclusive on the game which you can see here
http://www.ablegamers.com/game-news/my-football-game-and-they-said-it-could-
not-be-done.html - if you need more specifics email Mark Barlet.  He
personally worked with the creators.

How can I obtain a copy of the football game to try with my students with
cognitive and/or physical disabilities? Will this program work with a switch
interface device like the Switch Hopper and switches?
