Nychta: A game with no graphics
"Nychta: A game with no graphics" is the first videogame with no graphics at all. It was designed as a challenge to make a videogame without one of its basic components and also as a way to raise awareness about videogame accessibility by putting players in the shoes of blind gamers.
The game is about escaping from a labyrinth by mentally mapping your surroundings using the sounds of your steps or bumping into walls. Each level features a procedurally generated labyrinth and the labyrinths increase in size the further you progress.
Controls:
Arrow keys, w/a/s/d or swipe to move
R to reload level
M to turn music on or off
1.1 Update: Added swiping functionality for smartphone support, changed the sound of finding the exit to something a little more rewarding and added the option to use w/a/s/d to move

Great little game, well done! :) I always love finding video games which can be played by the visually impaired, which - sadly - is still a completely undeveloped field.
Only criticism I would raise, is that blindly navigating a maze is somewhat unintuitive when the walls have no thickness. I think maze where walls take as much space on the grid as the paths would be easier to "feel out".
Cool game really like the graphics
Cool idea and exploration, but I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news and tell you that Soundvoyager, Blindscape and Real Sound: Kaze no Regret all did this first...
Thank you ^^ Yes, of course there are other games that mainly use sound but by "no graphics at all" I mean no text, UI or anything on screen that can be considered graphics, just darkness.
ooh, I wish I could see my path and where I missed! was cool :)
What an interesting game concept!
Thank you! :D
