Last week-end was Global Game Jam, a 48 hours game making marathon that happens every year worldwide the last week-end of January.
Thousands of people all over the world group in small teams to make a game on the same theme.
This year theme was "Lost and Found". There's a also some given "sub-themes" that people can add to the game like, making the game with lol code, using just one button, game using only audio, ....


In our site located in Japan, we had a team with one blind person who happens to be a gamer.
He was dreaming to make a video game playable by blind or valid people, so he participated to the marathon and formed a team with 3 other people studying sound and music.


Here is the game called Audio Dolphin:
$1
Here is the scenario:
*This game is playable in Japanese, in English, regardless of visual impairment. A whale has sneezed and the marine pearls, the origin of the music in ocean, are lost somewhere. By using your echolocation skill, you, a dolphin, have to find all the missing marine pearls in the ocean with your partner, and bring back the music in the ocean. Please put headphones to play.*
It's playable in Japanese or English.
Please have in mind it has been made in 48 hours, so there's still bugs.


We hope you'll like it! :)


There was another audio game made in Seattle during the week-end too!
$1


We'll have this blind gamer having a one hour talk later this month that we'll put on Youtube.
It'll be in Japanese, and we'll try to do an English voice-over version as well.
I'll post it later here.
