Deathly Whispers

Deafly Whispers is a game created to show how accessibility features can be implemented into modern gaming.

Play as Igor, our timid main character, who must use audio accessibility features to avoid the ghosts and collect the keys to unlock the door and retreat into the safety of the cabin. 

The campfires are Igor’s only place of safety in the night so make sure to collect logs to fuel the fires.

Controls:

Use the ( W A S D ) keys , Arrow keys or Mouse to move the player.

Use the Spacebar to dodge attacks

Pick up logs of wood and press E when within a campfire to keep yourself safe

Accessibility features in the game:

- Sound compass is pointing in the direction of the enemy so that the user knows the whereabouts of the enemy.

- In the bottom right of the game a camera icon is used so that the game has no camera shake.

- In the game no flashing lights have been used meaning the game is operable for more users.

- Simple controls (arrow keys and cursor/click) have been used for people that have issues with mobility.

- In future parts of the game more accessibility features can be added to the options bar which is found on the start-up page, this could include a colour blindness filter and the inclusion of touchscreen interaction.

The Exit feature is for a downloaded copy of the game (.exe) and just leaving or pressing back on the webpage will work for the browser version of the game.
