  1. Heya, v1.0.3 of Audio Tetris just dropped... This release brings a built-in updater to the app that will check for updates automatically when the game starts and let you download/hopefully update in place, then restart the app while preserving your settings and game saves. Also, the way the app is packaged for release has changed slightly, placing everything in a dedicated Audio Tetris folder and renaming the executable to audio-tetris.exe. Hopefully this will cut down on the need for those who download the app to visit the release page of the app's repo to download updated versions of the app. Get yourself a copy here: github.com/thegregariousdragon As always, please report any issues and feedback, feedback, feedback makes the effort worth it. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #AudioGame #Tetris #Rust #WxDragon

  3. Just dropped v1.0.2 of Audio Tetris... Did some refining of the menu system, fixed some bugs with muting and switching background music tracks and look at that, you can now save your games in progress. Also there's a scoreboard of sorts.

  5. Hot off the presses: A new build of Audio Tetris which fixes the keymap, speaking of certain game elements and includes the DLL files for NVDA to read what's going on in the game properly. Sorry 'bout that. Get yourself a copy of this new beta version here: github.com/thegregariousdragon #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #AudioGame #Tetris #Rust #WxDragon

  7. Hot off the presses... Say hello to the first public release of Audio Tetris, the audio-first version of Tetris on Windows written in Rust/WxDragon with the help of Google's Antigravity. I still consider it a beta, but I really want others to kick the proverbial tires. You can get it here: github.com/thegregariousdragon Report any issues and feedback is highly encouraged. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #AudioGames #Tetris #Rust #WxDragon

  9. Just built a prototype of a audio-first, screen reader accessible Tetris game written in Rust/WxDragon for Windows called Audio Tetris using Google Antigravity. I haben't built a release version as of yet, but you can find the GitHub repo here: github.com/thegregariousdragon I'm obviously still working on it, but if you would like to test it out, the repo is there for the cloning. Feedback is strongly encouraged. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #Rust #WxDragon #Windows #Tetris

  11. Question for my blind coding friends: Where do I obtain WxDragon to use with the latest stable version of Rust? I want to experiment with Rust and WxDragon using Google Antigravity, but I want to make sure I get the latest stable versions of Rust and WxDragon that are most accessible with NVDA. #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #Coding #Rust #WxDragon #Antigravity

  13. If you really like Paperback and Fedra's updater sequence, I made a standalone Rust crate for this functionality. It fetches assets from GitHub, lets you check for development or latest stable releases, shows the markdown release notes in a nice text field, replaces the running binary in both portable and installer modes, etc. Currently Windows only, but that'll change. This is a small part of my broader goal, to make a collection of crates someone can just pick up and start making accessible desktop apps in Rust. crates.io/crates/ship-shape #rust #rustlang #wxdragon

  15. A question to people developing in #wxDragon: do you think it's mature enough to go prod? As far as I know, for example, it doesn't wrap wxLocale, so maybe something else important is missing? Thanks! // CC @TheQuinbox

  17. Ok, I got an #a11y question on the #WxDragon toolkit. Has anyone noticed that, when tabbing into a list with a selected item, #NVDA will read the item twice? Is this fixable? Is there a config issue on my side? Boosts welcome, replies even more welcome.
