Hi, Recently a student of mine developed an online dualplayer audio Maze game , in which two players have to find each other in a labyrinth. They both wear headsets (with a microphone) and shout or talk to/with each other. Their speech/sound is transmitted live over the internet and heard by the other player. The closer the players get to each other the more clear/louder the sound becomes. Last week a working demo was presented - it is part of a Seminar Assignment entitled "Audio-Game-Audio" for game design students. The game does not use any visuals and consists of audio only. Hopefully we can put it online over at http://www.game-accessibility.com sometime in the next couple of weeks.
