Nvda

When you can’t write the code and you can’t find the tool you need, AI is the only way the thing could exist at all.

NukeFire is a post-apocalyptic MUD with screen reader profiles, GPS navigation, and a crafting system that stores your materials between sessions. It’s the most accessible MUD I’ve played since Erion, and it does several things Erion doesn’t.

Most MUDs are technically accessible because they’re text-based, but Erion is the only one I can actually play. Here’s what it does that every other MUD gets wrong.

NVDA doesn’t tell you whether a window is maximized when you query the title. JAWS does. I built a small add-on that adds this feature, with a dedicated command and an optional NVDA+T enhancement that matches the JAWS behavior.

The existing word prediction tools don’t work with NVDA. So I built my own add-on that predicts words using n-gram analysis, announces them through NVDA’s speech engine, and works inside the screen reader instead of against it.

Steam added accessibility features in 2025, but the desktop experience with NVDA still has real barriers. Here’s what works, what doesn’t, and what Valve should fix next.
