This is apparently relevant for next week… But what could it mean? Incidentally… What class would you want to see me play out of these?

I've been enjoying #3dPrinting (with sighted assistance) and, after showing part of it on stream the other day, I'm pleased to fully reveal my latest print, this time from #DoomThe Dark Ages!
Being able to understand the scale and detail of key things like this is great for #accessibility!
#A11Y
SK stands, smiling and wearing his trademark cap with his logo on it and a Doom shirt, holding a 3d printed version of the flail from Doom: The Dark Ages. In his right hand is the handle, printed from wood filament, with fin-like elements jutting out sideways from its top. In his left is a sphere, printed from a grey filament, with what could be runes of some kind etched into the surface and large protruding spikes sticking out at various angles in amongst the markings. The two elements are linked by a gold filament chain, composed of individual links and running between two oblongs, one on top of the ball and one at the top of the handle.

Thanks so much everyone for another fantastic @SOTFest!
It's always great to be able to attend this event, swap stories of great moments, talk about what we'd like to see from the game, purchase cool merch and of course, just get together in person!

SK is sitting in a large colourful chair at a brightly coloured table, smiling and wearing his trademark cap with his logo on it. Behind him is a backdrop of what appears to be a pirate ships cabin.

Happy #SeaOfThieves Fest Day 2 all!
If anyone wants to say hi, chat #accessibility, get a photo etc, this is me!

If anyone wants to find me at @sotfest.bsky.social to talk about #accessibility, my work with @rnib.bsky.social or just to say “Hi”, this is me! #A11Y
Sightless stands smiling, wearing his trademark cap with his logo on it and a shirt with “We shall sail together” on the front. Two pins, one on each side are visible.

(/end) Fun fact:
This year marks 5 years since DB and I started collaborating!
Last week, we met in person (if briefly) for the first time and knew we had to get a photo together as a result!
#Gaming and accessibility (#A11Y) is a truly worldwide cause.
SK and DB sit at a restaurant table, with the word "Carluccio's" in the background and cocktails in front of them. SK wears his trademark cap with his logo on it and a blue polo shirt. DB, to his right, wears glasses, has greying hair and wears a blue shirt. They are both smiling at the camera.

Who's excited for #Doom The Dark Ages?
Irrespective of its #accessibility, I'm looking forward to it, having played multiple titles in the series with sighted assistance.
As part of the hype, I bought this controller... and was surprised to find the top shell etchings are tactile as well!

#A11Y
SK stands, smiling and wearing his trademark cap with his logo on it, holding the primarily green Doom: The Dark Ages controller in both hands. The controller's face is partially etched with tactile patterns reminiscent of the Doom Slayer's armour.

As well as being credited as an #accessibility consultant on #Atomfall, I was so pleased to receive a very cool Atomfall creator kit from the Rebellion team!
Seeing items first-hand equivalent to elements in-game is a key part of accessibility through immersion!
#Gifted
Items from the Atomfall Creator Kit. At the back from left to right, a Torch, an enamel mug with the B.A.R.D logo and a rucksack with the AtomFall logo. At the front, again from left to right is a box containing wicker figures, a pair of leather gloves as worn in the game, a cricket bat with the Atom Fall logo, a pack of playing cards, an access key card made out of wood and a leather notebook.

Very pleased to say I'm credited as an #accessibility consultant on #Atomfall!
Though the game isn't playable without sighted assistance, seeing it launch with audio aim cues and NPC sounds letting you tell friend from foe is a wonderful feeling.

Though I have to wait for in-game #accessibility, my #MarvelsSpiderMan2 Collector's Edition arrived early! I now have a real sense of Venom's scale from this statue!
If you've wondered how real-world items can help #gamersWithoutSight understand your characters, world, etc, here's an example!
The 19 inch Spider-man 2 Collector's Edition statue. The main figure of the statue is the black-skinned Venom with a white spider logo on his chest, mouth agape, exposing two rows of sharp teeth and a long, curling red tongue. Above the left shoulder of the towering symbiote we find the comparatively tiny figure of Peter Parker mid-air, launching a line of web to attach to his opponent, whilst in Venom's right-hand, Miles Morales is held by his left leg, charging up what looks to be a venom punch in his own much smaller right fist.

A cool photo I got at #EGX yesterday! If anyone's attending on Saturday, I'll be there probably looking similar to this!

Was excited to receive this latest piece of #Xbox merch on returning from holiday, even if I do have to wait a while to wear it in the correct weather. #Starfield #Xbox
Me smiling, wearing a black Starfield bomber jacket and my trademark cap with my logo on it, holding a Starfield Limited Edition Xbox wireless controller in both hands, grips downwards, sticks and face buttons facing towards the camera. Embroidered on the jacket's left-hand side are the words "Flight Crew Frontier" and on the right side are the initials SK.
