Making Video Games for Everyone (Not Just the Able-Bodied)

To play Devil&#x27;s Advocate:<p><i>&gt;In the video game “Perception,” sound is as important as sight — if not more so.</i><p>So deaf people are shit out of luck? That isn&#x27;t exactly <i>everyone</i>, now is it?<p>&#x27;Colorblind mode&#x27; is another example. They largely only treat one form of colorblindness, when there are different types of colorblindness with different needs. Imagine the surprise for a deuteranope or protanope playing a game and enabling the &quot;colorblind mode&quot; only to find that the mode only caters to tritanopes? But will this game feature multiple colorblind modes?
