Text to speech support for Android, Avadon Black Fortress

[cinmay]

Hi. I'm sitting here with a cup of tea and my tablet and enjoying your game immensely.

However, as a dyslectic I feel it could give me a lot more if it was integrated with Android's "text to speech" function.

This should in theory not require too many lines of code. But having worked with software I know that seemingly simple tasks can be quite difficult.

 

Another common issue with text to speech is that a lot of people, especially people who are used to reading a lot, say that they can't stand the sound of text to speech voices. But for us dyslectics it's a good alternative. There are even some pretty good ones in the android store. "SVOX classic" is one of my favorites.

The Android port of Avadon was done by a third party, rather than by Spiderweb. As such, it's pretty unlikely that this'll happen, but it might be worth shooting an email to the developer.

Alternatively, I don't think anyone can say no to Jeff dramatically voicing every line

 

(but seriously, I'm pretty sure jeffers is good about accessibility stuff like this...shoot him an email about it)

I think if we heard Jeff's voice doing the narration to the games, half of us would die in joy.

I don't care who narrates; I just want him to voice Redbeard.
