Reminder: European Accessibility Act comes into force this summer. It covers text/voice chat in the same way as CVAA. And ecommerce, defined as any transactions through websites or mobile apps. If you have a game website or mobile game that sells to people in the EU, it must be fully accessible.

Can I just say that modern day technology is insane? Running quests and dungeons on the train home for the holidays. My mind is blown.

REAL DIORAMAS EVERYBODY
Fantasian is out!! I’m waiting for the physical release, but I’m so glad it’s finally free from Apple Arcade. I only played the first half (it was released in two parts), so I’m excited to finally finish it.

I just wish they marketed the dioramas more 😭 The backgrounds are REAL DIORAMAS!!!!!

Readers, do you know what the filters ARE good for?

To let DEV see if the game design is accessible for everyone because they can now see the game in similar ways someone would with colour blindness...

It's not that much of a help for people who are colour blind ❤️
A thread on colourblindness & #gamedev -

If your approach to colourblindness is full screen filters, you're *doing it wrong*, and causing more problems that you're solving.

If you see a game that has filters, they're doing it wrong. If you see a game that has a 'strength' slider - don't copy it.

So unexpected but we won PC Game of the Year at the Golden Joystick Awards in London!

Thank you so much to our community and everyone who believed in us. We wouldn’t be here without you.

I’m so thankful we got to be there in person and bring the award home with us ❤️
