SpecialEffect Launch Gamebase

15 January 2010

Have you been wondering just what it is you could do to get involved with SpecialEffect? Well, that question is answered today with the launch of SpecialEffect's 'accessible Gamebase.'

www.gamebase.info

It deals with all access devices for all physical and learning disabilities - from switch users to eye controllers. It's not just a place for gamers but a place where everyone - carers, gamers, developers and, of course, end-users themselves - can both share information and try out the latest games whether they are seasoned gamers or absolute beginners. It has the potential to be a great training tool, too, and we've already put up some example videos to illustrate how the games are played. As it's based on a social networking model, anyone can easily join up and share information. It tells you not only how to adapt mainstream games for use by everyone but also provides information on which special games are available - and for whom.

All in all, then, it's very much designed to be a place that encourages anyone with an interest in this area to meet to share information and ideas. The proof of the pudding will be in the extent to which people use it, of course, and it will need significant promotion (yes, this will be where we will need your help!) to reach that point of critical mass when, with SpecialEffect's expert input and moderation, it will thrive.

Go to www.gamebase.info to sign up and Be a Part of It!
