GamLab - A Development Environment for Simple Games and Four Specific Scenarios for Visually Impaired Children
Original language description
Computer programs devoted to visually impaired children are rare in the Czech Republic. Therefore, we started a project supporting the developers of such programs by a 2D game development environment. This environment allows drag-and-drop scene modeling,physics simulation, and script programming. We started with reviews of scripting languages and physics libraries. Based on the evaluation of speed and clarity of syntax, we selected the "Boo" scripting language. Based on computational stability and usability in the .NET Framework, C#, and Silverlight environments, we have chosen "Farseer Physics". We have demonstrated our tool by development of the educational program "Discovering with Louisa"; an educational program for visually impaired children, created in the frame of a joint project with the Charles University in Prague.
