the particles are a nice touch, i'd try adding different easing curve to the movement of the title and text-background popping in, the linear one is a little jarring right now!

i agree with all this, very insightful! i think my original goal was to actually create default/initial PROTOTYPING material sets (coloured or shader-patterned), for placeholder assets and such, which provide instant semantic meaning? can't quite remember, it's been long since i started this lol

i've also got some ideas for not only-colour considerations (like depending on the saturation/monochrome contrasts) i also have ideas for using patterning shaders on certain colours (boba and kiki, kiki/enemy would have Triangles bc they're "sharp" and could signify danger!)

right now i'm just working on the tooling (slowly! bc college...) for measuring results, but here's the gist: - create standard colour palettes (for Game Materials) that have high contrast between them considering CVDs (Achromatopsia, [Protan, Deuteran, Tritan]-opia) - i will try automate this too!

30 hours into my Colour Blindness Viewer app (jakedaspud.github.io/AuGoWolf) that's part of my larger #gamedev #accessibility paper i'm researching right now! #a11y

11 Godot Wallpapers with rainbows on them, progressively increasing the strength of a Deuteranopia filter over them

Fortnite's Audio Visualizer was an accessible mainstay. In April, Epic removed the crucial feature from Competitive, and in June, heavily nerfed the option in standard. Now, disabled players are left struggling to play. Read my latest @mothership.blog story here: www.mothership.blog/fortnites-au...

The visual wheel became popular with disabled and non-disabled players

there's Godot for Android and i think there's Xogot which is a Godot-fork for iOS i tried Android, and it's way too much hassle to use touch controls, i'd still connect mouse+keyboard to my phone so touch control game engines are VERY few afaik

oh, you can't find a reference? THEN. MAKE. IT.

on a grey box, one character is facing away from the camera on the ground, legs dangling off and sitting down.
other character is facing the camera proudly, in an expressive and loud star shape, holding an SG-style white guitar

very interesting germanism carrying over in this questionnaire, you can do gender-inclusive language by doing Jober*in (Jober masc. and Joberin fem.), so they did it in english too lol

Have you participated in a (game dev) conference, trade fair or other event setting as volunteer or host*ess before?
