Conducting an accessibility audit and several playtests focusing on:
> Assessment of the game's playability by visually impaired people
> Usability and general ergonomics of the game
> Overall assessment and evaluation of the game's potential by the target audience
« Accidental Queens and Arte were willing to remove a barrier to access to allow [blind players] to experience their game. That, ladies and gentlemen, is what accessibility is. »
Can I Play That
« [...] the developers of Alt-Frequencies made the game accessible to blind players by making sure you can turn on a mode that only has you using your keyboard. It also automatically uses your screen reader to read menus, and any non-narrated segments of the game. This was a wonderful thing to find out and made me instantly buy the game, because we need to support indi developers that have accessibility at the forefront of their minds. »
