Universal accessibility in the videogame industry is completely unheard of. Game
developers do not want to make their games accessible for a demographic market
that could expand into the billions. This site is dedicated to the art and, research and
discovery of games that are making it big and making noise in game accessibility. It
shouldn't be a foreign word something to be screeched in the ears of developers who
are not physically challenged or impaired in any way keeping them from playing their
favorite games. It certainly isn't stopping me and my friends. It's a worldwide quest.
