Hi all, just been wondering, are there any boxing RPG games on the internet that a blind or vision impaired person could play? I remember back in the early 1990’s, my cousins bought a sega mega drive and had a boxing game I could play if I sat right in front of their tv and stuck my head almost inside the tv screen and I really enjoyed playing that game, even though, most fights ended up with my character getting knocked out cold and losing the fight.

 

Or another game somebody might create if it hasn’t been done, a Olympics game like track and field which I used to play on the video games machine at the shops when I was little.

I'm really not sure if such a thing exists, and in this day and age, it's highly unlikely that such a thing will ever be produced for the blind, seeing how there'd be so many copyright issues to get around and so many companies griping that this or that element would have been stolen from this or that video game. Especially in this day and age when the very idea of cloning is looked on by the gaming community with the same amount of rage as actual code theft is. The closest thing to a boxing game for the blind that was ever made was Savage Gambit, and even that one was turn based rather than realtime, and that's gone the way of the dinosaur, unfortunately.

Hi all, if you have 4 cave bats to fight, and you accidentally flea from combat after the third cave bat has been killed, doesn’t the game reward you with experience points for the three cave bats you killed?

 

I ask this question, because just now in a game I was playing, I had 45 points of experience to reach level 2, and came up against 4 cave bats which I killed 3 of them and then accidentally pressed r thinking I’d killed all 4 and wanting to rest my character to regain health, instead there was one cave bat left and my character fled from combat. When I went to check if I reached level 2 experience, I still needed 45 points, like as though I never killed the 3 cave bats I killed in that last fight.

I don't think fleeing from battle lets you have xp points.
