Hi Lori,
It is the same concept as using a keyboard totally blind, you just
get used to where the items you need are located.
It takes some practice, but my wife just started playing swamp, she
is totally blind, and never used a mouse before either, but she is doing
quite well and really enjoying the game.
Keep in mind, hundreds of totally blind folks are playing swamp now
with a mouse, and hundreds others have played other audio games with
mouse support, with more on the way.
The mouse is a great method of input for the blind, folks just need
to be open minded and give it a fair shot.
I sent some tips to the list a while back on using the mouse for the
first time, perhaps someone could dig that post up and re post?
Later

hi,
swamp was intended to be mouse controled to make it feel more mainstream.
however even though it takes a while to get used to, its easy enough
to get used to mouse control as the mouse cannot move outside the
window of the game.
also in an fps like this, learning to use a mouse completely defeats
keyboard control, as its much easier to have prosice movements among
other things.
if you need to config keys diferently such as the reload button etc,
the config file makes it easy to understand anyway.
my advice is just keep at it, you'll get it eventually.

Hi I just downloaded Swamp, but am quite disappointed to descover it
is only
really mouse friendly, so not really friendly for people with ni
sight at
all. I know you can change the keys in the config file, but still
feel that
there should be a totally blind-friendly version made availible. I'm not
sure how to go about trying to make the game work for me as far as
changing
keys goes. Thanks from Lori.
