Okay, so there’s this huge thing Valve just did on Steam. They finally made it so you can search for games by how accessible they are. Cool, right? I was scrolling through this blog post — or maybe I was skimming (typical me) — and they’re, like, detailing all this new stuff they’ll show you. Stuff like, if you can change the text size or if there are narrated menus. Lots of tiny details that might not seem big but are super important.
Anyway, all this info isn’t just hidden somewhere, it’s right there on the store pages. It’s like Steam’s saying, “Hey, we got you!” which feels kind of encouraging. They’re pushing to make it smoother for folks to find what they need in a game. You ever get that feeling when something just clicks? Yeah, it’s kinda like that.
Somewhere in this mix, Steam mentioned they collected feedback — like, tons of it — from developers and players with disabilities. 5,000 applications! Can you believe it? And, whoops, I lost track of where I was, but the point is: more are jumping on this every day.
Honestly, it’s nice to see this happening ’cause, let’s face it, gaming should be for everyone.
