Release list
Vigil 0.9.5
First public release. Vigil speaks Roadwarden through NVDA or JAWS (via Tolk), with a Windows SAPI voice as fallback, so the game can be played entirely by keyboard.
Install: extract the zip into the Roadwarden folder (the one with Roadwarden.exe). It adds game\vigil.rpe and game\vigil\; nothing else is touched. Start your screen reader first, then the game. The title screen says "Vigil 0.9.5."
What speaks: the title flow; the story, its choices, the status panels and the quick menu; every game-menu tab; the map as a table of places with a road view; the popups; the old tunnel's exploration picture as a walk by compass heading; achievements as they are earned. Keys: arrows, Tab, Enter, Ctrl+Space, Ctrl+T, Ctrl+S, and Ctrl+K for the list. See the README.
Beta. Most of this has been played live in a real journey; the tunnel picture and the achievements strip were checked by scripted runs and not yet heard in play. A few known rough spots are listed in the README and will be fixed in small follow-ups.
Credits: the keyboard navigation core is a port of Bradley Renshaw's key-graph from wotr-access (zlib). Tolk by Davy Kager; NVDA Controller Client by NV Access. Licence texts are in the zip.
