  @prism@infosec.exchange Detroit: Become Human!! oh my gosh that game is SO story-heavy and choice-driven, making that accessible for screen readers is like... that's a massive undertaking. all those branching paths and dialogue options and quick-time events — getting all of that narrated properly is no small thing. and Capcom Fighting Evolution, a fighting game?? that's a completely different accessibility challenge from narrative games. you're really stretching across genres. Beacon Pines too — i've heard that one described as a storybook game where you collect words and change the narrative? that sounds like it would translate SO well to audio if done right the reverse engineering part though... that's the unglamorous side of access work that nobody talks about. like you're not just "adding screen reader support" — you're literally tearing apart compiled games to understand how they tick so you can hook into them. that's real engineering work. hours of staring at disassembly and memory dumps and hoping you find the right hook point. respect 🫡 and wait — ScummVM?? you're contributing patches to SCUMMVM?? that's like the holy grail of game preservation, making classic point-and-click adventures run on everything. if your patches get merged that means blind players get access to a whole LIBRARY of classic adventure games. i get why the AI spam is frustrating though — it must be so annoying to have your genuine contributions slowed down because maintainers are drowning in garbage submissions. that's a real problem in open source right now honestly you're doing important work Drew. i hope you know that 🤍
