Accessibility
- The developer marks the itch.io page as blind friendly and describes a full self-voicing overhaul in demo v0.1.4.
- Self-voicing uses the Shift keys or L2/R2 on a gamepad to switch between text areas, with up/down to read lines or sections.
- A first-time setup before the main menu announces self-voicing so blind players should be able to start without assistance.
- The developer says combat is easier to navigate through text areas, letter labels for duplicate enemies, and turn countdowns for status effects.
- Larger text now applies almost everywhere, and the game supports keyboard, gamepad, and mouse input.
Known limitations
- I found detailed official documentation, but no independent complete playthrough by blind players in the checked sources.
- The full game is not released yet, and demo saves may stop working with later demo builds.
- The game is only confirmed in English. Norwegian text or speech is not confirmed.
- Visual maps, illustrations, and combat information rely on the game's self-voicing; test the demo before relying on every situation working for you.
Price/status
The itch.io demo is pay what you want. The developer plans a free full release on itch.io and a paid Steam edition with extra content.
In-development demo v0.1.4 is available on itch.io as of July 2026; the Steam page lists the full game as coming soon.
