Haven't noticed this before! "it's missing accessibility features that I need" given as an option on Steam's refund reason dropdown #gamedev #indiedev #accessibility

Progress! Slow progress, but moving along nonetheless.

10+ year games industry vet here: Do not blame yourself for what is a record-low job market. Majority of people I know (self -included) are doing what they can to make ends meet. Eventually, things will bounce back and get back to normal. Do not take the market as a reflection of yourself.

He has a Guinness world record, has raised over half a million dollars for charity, and runs a successful YouTube channel. You done those things in the last 14 years?

Unity is expanding support for native screen readers, making it easier for developers to implement screen reader support for blind accessibility on more platforms. After Android and iOS, starting with Unity 6.3 it supports Windows and MacOS as well. caniplaythat.com/2025/09/05/u...

What are your thoughts on how this game could be more accessible?

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a great update overall, with accessibility that has improved across the board. Mouse mode is innovative, but may be tricky to use. The screen reader is a welcome addition we'd love to see more widely supported on the system. caniplaythat.com/2025/07/29/n...

The Nintendo Switch 2 itself is a great update, with accessibility that has improved compared to the first Switch across the board.

Still not as bad as Sky News basically calling a child a loser for his incredible Tetris achievement. #neverforget

This game is phenomenal and more people need to know about it.

Maybe they should care more about keeping people’s jobs safe.

Well said. While I definitely intend on continuing in the indie space, we all still have bills to pay so this is tough.

It took a really long time to get to the point where I could rapid prototype game ideas and now that I can it feels incredibly empowering. Excited to share more stuff in the future! #gamedev #indiegamedev #neverquit

Born and raised Nintendo diehard but at this point, the company doesn't deserve shit. Current leadership does not follow company principles that made them what they are today.

Light is visibility, but also weight in this fun platformer controller I made. The player controls which of the 3 light levels is active, and they influence how fast you move, how high you jump, and your weight! #indiegamedev #unity2d #indiegames

Blu @ghostbellgames.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

When developing your game ensure every feature utilizes more than one sense! Taking damage? Show a health bar change, make a sound effect, give some red on screen, maybe even controller vibration! Good game design is also good accessibility design! #indiegames #a11y #gamedev

Appreciate it. I will cherish these thoughts and prayers until Silksong comes out. Which I’m sure will be any day now (right?).
