Accessibility Brings Disabled Gamers A Sense Of Community

July 23, 2024

Gamers with disabilities say a culture shift in studios is leading to a more inclusive experience.

Developers are increasingly designing games to take account of people with sight-loss, motor skills issues and other conditions.

Visually impaired gamer Kellie says something as simple as increasing the writing size on-screen for those with partial sight loss or providing better colour contrast options are a step in the right direction.

Companies, like Dundee-based Konglomerate Games, are working to open up the gaming market to those with complex physical needs, with a game designed to help young people with cystic fibrosis.
