Hi Quantum
I included the speech input and text-to-speech to try and cater for all types of people. Trouble is I don't how effective it is for blind people.
I hope the game works well for you. Just try the demo first and let me know how you go.
Feel free to offer feedback.

Re: Time Traveller now released and existing games at half p
Hi Dave
I checked it out and read through the C file. Haven't used C in years so I'm rusty. :)
These days I program in .Net with C#.
The problem with the 3 GAC games that my dad and I did is that we lost the source files. So to convert the Time Traveller I had to play it extensively trying all ...

Time Traveller now released and existing games at half price
Well I dropped the prices for my existing games down to half of their original cost. Maybe AUS$1.99 is asking too much. On Android Developer Market it seems the lowest I can go is AUS$0.99 so I have set them all for this price. This is for:
* Moonbase 3
* Mystery of the Dark Manor
* The Ice ...
* Moonbase 3
* Mystery of the Dark Manor

The Ice Guardian has now been ported to Android devices
A third game written by my father, Barrie Eaton, has now been released to Android devices.
This was originally released in 1991 in the U.K.
Like Moonbase 3 and Mystery of the Dark Manor, this uses the same engine to maintain a consistent user experience.

Mystery of the Dark Manor, 1992 Amstrad text adv, on Android
Hi all
I just wanted to let people know that I have ported another one of my father's games, Mystery of the Dark Manor, to Android devices. This uses the same engine that was programmed for Moonbase 3 so should provide a consistent user experience.
Mystery of the Dark Manor was originally released ...
