Before change, the font is very thin and looks almost grey compared to the level border
After change, the font is thicker and looks so white that it has a bit of bloom
I was not happy with how readable was my font... turns out I could just tweak a setting and boom, much better

A lot of accessibility efforts by smaller studios is overlooked because of the attention given to this AAA game. It would be more socially positive to draw attention to accessibility efforts for other games given TLOU2's narrative. #a11y #accessibility #accessiblegames
On a slightly brighter note, I've gotten back into Swordy Quest, which is as fun/addictive as I remembered. There've been some updates to the game recently, if you play and add me to Game Center you can join my clan. apps.apple.com/us/app/swordy-... #Blind #iOS #AccessibleGames
Dave, large guy with a beard, is wearing a navy diving suit with yellow goggles. Behind him is Bancho, a Black man who runs a sushi restaurant, and Cobra, a brown man with sunglasses and a Hawaiian shirt with white hair and big grin.

With features like time-slowing, aim assist, directional audio indicators, and subtitles that even include background chatter, diving for sashimi was smooth, accessible, and fun. 🎣

Reframing TRPGs meant lowering the bar: solo modes, bookstores, asynchronous play. Books and mail—not rulebooks and sessions—were the new entry points. #AccessibleGames #TTRPG
