Even though I've fallen into the "easy route" trap, I still want to voice concern of the lower quality of subtitling happening thanks to the aggressive quick nature of short form content. #accessibility

I suspect this, my body is getting adaptive to chemicals injected into me to manage MS. So on the few weeks before my next infusion, I feel rundown and mentally bleh. Thank god I didn't plan like Develop and Impact announcements during this...

Thank you to the judges for this year's Impact campaign! Not only did Year 2 cohort members step up to help but we had returning judges @black1976.bsky.social & @radderss.bsky.social help us decide the new cohort too! #impact

I’m live and James Bonding

Our lil Bond is streaming 007 this afternoon from 2pm BST. If you don't watch, then you are are an ableist on Pride month. #DisabilityPride www.twitch.tv/manycatsstud...

This means there will be zero refunds if you purchased a game digitally. PlayStation currently has a policy that if you download the game you are inelligible for a refund. Nintendo is worse, it's after you purchased a game. Xbox you have to give a legit reason. Steam is with after 2 hours of play.

Goddammit PlayStation. You know Internet is not the same for everyone if you forcing everyone to download games. More industry shutting games off from the poor.

Watching the industry have as many events for Disability Pride like they did for Gay Pride! 😐

Great opportunity to push yourself to do something scary (eek public speaking)

Our first Impact Day last year was so wonderful, you can see the talks from last year here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yl6e... We love new voices and new perspectives, so consider submitting a talk for this year!

I am looking for new disabled voices to help give opportunities to them for their early speaking engagements!

So much fun on first Community Day stream. Can't wait for more fun with disabled gamers next month! youtube.com/shorts/aq5EN...

I did the impossible! I solved my own PC issue. Harri-bot can finally be sent to that android graveyard in Detroit Become Human.

As an old man, even I have to acknowledge the power of short form content in today's landscape.

Hats off to Mikey for showing us the hiding abilities of the blind. #MecchaChameleon

Went to shop around corner for some ice cream. It had melted by time I got home. It was not long out. 💀

I'm am sweating from playing a cold game. ~ Loving the new story vibes of Breach of Trust from #Frostpunk2 @11bitstudios.bsky.social. How many Scottish did they get to help them make this?

This afternoon from 3pm the boss (@cgoodyear.bsky.social) tries his hand at hosting a stream! He is playing the new DLC for #Frostpunk2 from the @11bitstudios.bsky.social team. Will he save the Scottish? He's English so he might just build another wall. 😱 twitch.tv/manycatsstudios

Really glad to see that Torment Hexus saw a good spike of wishlists from the AA Summer Showcase this year. From a rough estimate of line lengths looks to be over 2K wishlists over around 4 days. Accessibility focused marketing can get meaningful numbers of people to wishlist your game :D !

Imsomniac Games updated their list of Accessibility features for Marvel's Wolverine. New features for motor, visual, audio, motion sickness, sensitive content, etc. Read the updated post in the link below. support.insomniac.games/hc/en-us/art...

Pspsps... You know the Impact nominations are still open? So get in your submission, we'd love to show the world your awesome self. #impact forms.cloud.microsoft/r/BjiUxgez4v

Travelodge tried to defeat me with a tiny bathtub. Guess what Travelodge? I learnt from the best cats, if I fit, I sits (and bathe). 🛀

We had such a strong response we wanted to give everyone more time to get their nominations in! One more week to join the Year 3 cohort. #impact

You can watch @hfrayling.com talk on indie accessibility for the recent Impact! Indie Games now on Youtube. 🙌 #accessibility youtu.be/wPyXYpZrSis?...

We are trying to get guest @ckeywood.bsky.social to join us in the escape. Maybe @wearesecretmode.com can convince him?

Poor @thewobblygamer.bsky.social can't handle all the bad news of Xbox and Ubisoft. He loves them too much.
