We present ongoing research that aims to make such games go beyond accessibility, by making them engaging and enjoyable for visually impaired players. We have built a new interaction toolkit called the Responsive Spatial Audio Cloud (ReSAC), developed around spatial audio technology, to enable visually impaired players to play video games. VIPs successfully finished a simple video game integrated with ReSAC and reported enjoying the experience.}, publisher = {ACM}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/video-gaming-for-the-vision-impaired/}, pages = {465-467}, }
