Version 1.3 Is Out
[ 2018-06-19 17:13:17 CET ] [ Original post ]
A new version of Thaumistry is out. If you still haven't finished the game, maybe now is the perfect time to get going! Version 1.3 comes with:
- Full-screen support You can now play the game in full-screen mode. In order to avoid excessively long lines of text, the maximum text width is now configurable in the options.
- Accessible text-mode version (Windows) For visually impaired users who rely on screen readers and Braille displays, the Windows version can now be played in a text-mode window. This should provide full accessibility support for screen readers like NVDA and JAWS, or any other screen reader that supports text-mode windows.
- Accessibility improvements on macOS The game should now be more accessible to visually impaired macOS users using VoiceOver.
- Stand-alone T3 file We got quite a few requests to release a stand-alone T3 file that can be played using third-party TADS interpreters. The game is very closely tied to our own customized engine, but now we have a version that is able to run on vanilla TADS interpreters. You can find it inside the game's installation directory, aptly named "Thaumistry.t3". Please note that the stand-alone version of the game lacks all of our custom engine functionality, including the in-game map, appearance, custom configuration options and auto saves.
- Numerous smaller enhancements and bug fixes.
