We. Are. Back.

Please #gamedev, stop messing up colourblindness accessibility. It isn't hard, and DOESN'T consist of slapping filters over the screen.

accessibility options in Screamer to reduce sound effects that can cause tinnitus; includes a choice of frequency to start filtering from and a reduction gain.

this in more games please

I had my time in a non-games job and I value it, it kept me not homeless, not hungry and it wasn't permanent and didn't have to be. Stability over whatever the fuck the industry is doing. There is no and never will be shame in doing whatever it takes to stay alive, stay housed and stay fed!

And it’s not just developers

We have sent out several commissions and job offers this week to people with DMs “enabled” but who aren’t able to read them

Obviously, if they have a website and/or alternative contact method available we’ll use that… But more than you’d imagine don’t

The UK Government’s Online Safety Act has led Bluesky to require age verification for UK users before they can access DMs

Many are (understandably) refusing to do so

This has had a major impact on outreach for us, with far fewer indie developers now seeing the messages we send them about coverage

A new accessibility Pilot Program for Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 adds support for alternative control methods to select game modes on all platforms.

Controls using voice, face or head movements, and more is available through a Cephable integration.

Funny as a survivor of adverse child/adulthood experiences that when you're not in survival mode anymore, the mind basically works like a hoarders house that has had some cleaning done already and as you go along reveals a room you didn't know about filled with cat shit and newspapers from the 90s.

I used to struggle with this a lot. But I always try and remember that there's no such thing as behind, only where you are and where you're going. I can only ever truly compare to the metrics of myself, am I doing right by myself and what I want to be doing etc

I'm specifically looking for remote work, open to full time, part time or contract, in anything related to narrative, accessibility and also social media or community management, which I also have extensive experience in with excellent references. Thank you so much for sharing & sending support.

perfectionism is so often seen as a permissive ability to create or drive something towards perfection, but in reality, it's a crippling inability to let go of anything imperfect

it's an obsession, it stagnates you, and gets you stuck on things you shouldn't be

A man with glasses and a calm expression is on the right. Text on pink background reads "I do this all for the community," with his name below and "#37." The podcast Badge is on the bottom left

I am a broken person because not working feels like a punishment. Thanks capitalism!

In very very good news I am on annual leave until the 13th now, what will I do??

Video games accessibility is production reality.

If your UI breaks when resized, your core mechanic relies on one type of input, your onboarding assumes prior genre literacy and so on, you’ve already made design choices about who gets to play.

Most barriers aren’t technical, they’re cultural.

You were lovely company while I worked, thank you ✨😊
