Paul Lemm, an avid gamer, has been partially sighted for the last 15 years and relies on his guide dog Murphy – but hasn’t let that get in the way of his hobby.
Paul’s part of Ebon Sky Studios, which has developed Sable, a custom engine which allows blind people to develop their own audio-based games, regardless of whether they have any coding experience.
The engine allows people to develop role-playing games that work entirely through sound, with no graphical input.
Players can choose the measurements of different maps and buildings in the game, along with adding ambient noise to give a better definition of what they want the game world to be like.
