🌍 The best games are those that welcome everyone!

Adding remappable controls, subtitles, and colorblind modes isn't just thoughtful—it expands your audience and impact.

🎮 Representation matters!

Disabled characters in games should be more than sidekicks or inspiration stories—they should be heroes too. Let's push for authentic and respectful portrayals!

🎶 Sound is more than just music!

Visual indicators for audio cues, subtitles for important sounds, and haptic feedback help deaf and hard-of-hearing players fully experience games.
