That you provide the transcript and audio recording is amazing. I think the descriptions of the illustrations could be improved a bit though: they make sense if you've seen the images but they don't really provide the same information.
As an example:
> [ Illustration of what I thought Zelda was versus what Zelda really was. ]
This is a map of the game world with a distinctly visible 16x16 grid and a highlighted 4x5 region. That "what Zelda really was" was more than 12 times larger than "what [you] thought Zelda was" is lost in that description. But that information seems to be what that picture is intended to illustrate.
The transcript reads more like a draft: "this is where that picture goes". Instead it's more helpful to think about why you want to put that picture in particular there, what a normal sighted person can see in it that that you want to emphasize.
For example:
> In-game rendering of the Zelda world map laid out on a 16 by 16 tile grid. A small village in the West wedged between a forest to the North and a mountain range to the South, lakes and rivers throughout the East. The village I thought encompassed the entire playable area barely covers a tenth of the map.
(or something like that, I don't words good)
- justanothersys 8y agoThanks for the advice. I think the Zelda diagram could have easily been more abstract, but when finding a nice diagram I decided on the world map. I actually wrote the descriptions before I made the pictures and perhaps it's better to go in the other direction for accessibility in the future.
