Here's something I've been working on to promote a #HearthstoneAccess community project: https://t.co/VvaSKXuBbj
Note that this is not a long-term solution, but a potential (Blizzard-approved) workaround while the Hearthstone team implement accessibility natively.
Thanks for the support everyone. I have a lot of messages to go through but yesterday turned out to be a very tough day and I'm still processing everything.
@ianhamilton_ I've never really thought about it due to the whole anonymous online persona thing and all, but I'd be willing to give it a try if I could do it remotely and if you think people would benefit from it
Here's something I've been writing for the past few months: https://t.co/y9mH8aGLkT
It turned out to be a bit of an extensive read, but I did my best to keep it as simple as possible.
Hope it helps understand the effort behind keeping #HearthstoneAccess up and running.
Been working on this for a while and excited that it's finally out for people to read.
Very grateful that I got the opportunity to speak to so many wonderful people in the Hearthstone Access community while writing this feature for @Eurogamer.

Hey everyone. I'm back now and so is #HearthstoneAccess!
I noticed I have a bunch of notifications, emails and messages to go through, but figured getting the game up in time for the weekend would be a better use of my time.
Have fun!
Heads up #HearthstoneAccess players. I won't be around for the next few weeks which means I won't be able to keep the mod up and running when the patch lands on August 30. I'll do my best to pick things up when I'm back in mid September.
@stirlock I'd love to do it but had to put new features and modes on hold indefinitely a while ago unfortunately. Keeping everything working is seriously time consuming as it is. New modes and features would only make it worse - not to mention the huge time investment upfront 🙁
@TheBlindMan12V@Celestalon@PlayHearthstone My bad. Didn't run the social panel tests as my second laptop was out of battery and I couldn't find the charger so this slipped through the cracks 🙂 Thanks for the heads up - should be fixed once you run the patcher again
#HearthstoneAccess is back. Shout-out to @Celestalon and the @PlayHearthstone team for giving me a heads up on what changed so I could get this out in time for the weekend. Have fun!
The latest HS patch is quite complex and broke my normal (heavily automated) flow. I need to find a large (continuous) block of time to work on it, which is not something I can do during the workweek. This unfortunately means #HearthstoneAccess will take a while longer to be back
@alkali_layke@superblindman@joeweakland1027@Divade011@PlayHearthstone Oh, no worries. I'm not that active so I often miss things - as proven by the fact that I literally just noticed everything that went on yesterday (very busy week so couldn't jump on the home computer after work for a couple of days). Anyways, looking forward to the stream! 🙂
@james_malone93 I've been extremely busy lately so no plans at the moment beyond keeping the mod up to date unfortunately. They're on my list for a brighter day though
A new version of #Hearthstone Access has just been released. Battlegrounds is now fully accessible!
Have fun playing the first fully blind accessible auto battler - which also happens to be a great game 🙂
