GoldGun, to be released on 31st January 2019 (self.Blind)
submitted by myTrueSound
We, at myTrueSound (Finland), are very happy to announce that "GoldGun, the adventure of a blind policeman", will be launched next 31st January 2019.
After few demos and few months of hard work we are getting kinda ready.
Betatesting process is going well.
The game is a cinematic experience (no graphics though) implemented with our own augiogame engine IMAGE (but we talk about that software other day). On the game, you will play through a series of 7 episodes the adventures of Soren, a blind policeman fighting against all sorts of criminals operating in the deepweb.
more info in this site, at $1, and at other social media channels
Stay tuned. More updates to come.

Do you have a gameplay video or a demo where we can try the game?
myTrueSound [OP] 1 points 4y ago
Not yet. We will put some teasers in twitter and our own website bit by bit as the 31st january approach. The game (each episode) is 2.5 €. It costs approximately the same as an icecream. That means, there will be not free version.

I'm in the US (I actually just woke my husband up to tell him about this). We have a 7 year old who is going blind due to retinitis pigmentosa and LOVES video games. Thank you for making these types of experiences that he'll be able to enjoy when he no longer has any usable vision.
My husband also works in the audio industry, so he was really excited to hear what you're doing with sound and is gong to give you guys a call. Have fun "geeking out" on sound!

Hi @KarebearMom. Thanks for the question and the feedback. I'm very sorry about what is happening to your son. We send him best regards from far away Finland.
The game is delivered in episodes, and so far, they don't contain much violence. But some shotguns and so on. It will be up to you to check them before given them forward.
However, and this might be also be interesting for your husband, we are developing our own audio game engines which enables us to create audiogames faster than with traditional game engines. So we actually have started to work on two different game concepts that will be launched late spring / beginning of summer. And those other games don't have violence at all.
Stay tuned to all the news. You can follow us also on our web, or on twitter, facebook, and so on.

Thanks for the info! My husband is really interested in learning what you are doing. He’s going to try to call you guys soon! Thank you for everything you do! :)

Thank you!. Our phone can be found on our website, $1. He is really welcome to call.
We are not here just to make one game and disappear. For instance, one of our main interests and aims for the future is to fight against social and work exclusion. We hope one day, gaming industry realizes that related to audio, blind people are the best listeners, and therefore, the best audio experts to tell when the audio experience in the game sounds truth or not. This is very important nowadays, when so many algorithms and software are being tested related to immersive or 3D-audio.
Similarly, we have been applying some funding to make our software accessible, so blind people could work with us. One of the founders of the company, @Mikko Herranen is blind, so this a topic very important for us. However, getting attention from funding instruments is being channels. Any help is welcome.

This is an off topic question :) Have you tried playing board games with your son?
KarebearMom 1 points 4y ago
He actually prefers card games and dice games.
ErtaySh 2 points 4y ago
Neat. Do you know his favorite games? I’d be happy to recommend some family games you can all play.
KarebearMom 1 points 4y ago
He really like Uno, Rummy, Kings in the Corner and a dice game called Farkle.
