Can't run it, it gives me the following error message:



EDIT: I'm using Firefox. Let me try Chrome.

Please open the project with MV and play from there.
It is a demo, not yet an executable file.

Sorry for inconveniences! We'll look into adding an executable version of the game soon.

EDIT: Maybe in a few minutes.

Hi and thanks for willing to give our game a try!
Sorry about the previous version where it was not an exe
Cause we kinda panicked as the end time gets closer

The newest version(1.2) should have been uploaded. It's an exe file so you won't need to have MV engine anymore. Cheers!

Hey there! So here are my impressions of Visionless, in comment form, since it's a demo. And let me just say, wow!

Overall view

The concept of this game intrigued me from the start. A game that tries to translate the experience of being blind to a mostly sighted public? That has the potential to be quite fascinating.

I myself have spent, in the past, quite a long time thinking about how to best design games for the blind, but as it turns out, I never got around to implementing those ideas. While there do exist some blind-friendly videogames out there, they're a mostly unexplored territory of game design that I have some interest on. Not gonna lie, most games I've played or made are very much visual experiences, so designing compelling gameplay without visuals at all sounds like a fascinating challenge.

Now, this game itself employs visual information, but I believe many of the ideas it uses could be easily translated into a blind-friendly experience, making it a quite interesting thing to check out.

Things I like

- Interesting and original ideas all around.

- Fascinating presentation, with all objects being represented by their sillouette, which is what a person could conceivably make out with their sense of touch.

- It shows that an experience about blindness does not have to be dark and scary, instead being a light hearted and fun story. This is an enjoyable short account of the everyday life of a kind and wise blind witch.

- Narration only describes things related to touch and sound, which is a fascinating way to write.

- Fascinating usage of sound offset to convey sceneries and events.

- I like how tactile information is translated into visual information, it's pretty neat.

- Interesting puzzles revolving around navigating a map while not being able to see.

- Beautiful soundtrack to go with it all.

Things I don't like

- The fact that there isn't more of it.

Final thoughts

This demo is a really fascinating little thing. The way it handles storytelling, presentation and gameplay are unlike anything I'd ever seen before.

So for originality, pleasant presentation, compelling story, and fascinating gameplay, I'll be dropping my second 5/5 of this jam. I was so engaged it made me kind of sad when it was over.

AND TO THINK I ALMOST MISSED OUT ON IT FOR NOT HAVING MV! That would have been criminal!

Waaah, gorgeous comment =D

You're right actually, at first we were gonna make a full sound thing, with text to speech and all that. Then it started to be really difficult and barely any fun, so we compromised.
I wrote and composed, and your story and soundtrack feedback is making me really happy, personally - but beyond that, I'm gald you liked the package.

We're working on the full version right about now, and and a steady pace too~ Ch3 is written and all.
