We're back! Sorry for the brief absence, busy fighting with Musk's gremlins, but it's all fixed now!

[Misty Rayburn @MistyRayburn]

Happy TLOU day. Once upon a time there was a man with a dream and he spoke that dream aloud at @GA_Conf. It manifested and TLOU 2 became fully playable for our totally blind friends and that man. He was proud till the day he died but he always hoped for more.

Industry accessibility veteran Tara Voelker launched Rebind Studios today, providing accessibility and production consultancy to the game industry.

As layoffs disproportionately affect accessibility roles, these services are needed now more than ever.

Well, I finally took my own advice about building accessibility in from the beginning. Rebind Studios is officially underway. I’m excited to help teams solve hard accessibility and production problems and, eventually, to make some games of our own.
