yeah, pokopia is great
thank you, i imagine thereโs some tough competition
you just like em because your comic is in the bg
i stand in my hallway posed with one hand pointing off to nothing and the other holding the brim of my cap, itโs Ash Ketchums cap and Iโm wearing that, a jumper covered in pokemon, a bag with a ditto plushie inside, pikachu keyring and pikachu shoes
me looking happy at the counter inside an argos
expedition to find a physical pokopia copy before closing time was a success!!

A selfie on a train on a bright day. Iโm a white young adult with short brown hair, glasses and a blue and white coat. Iโm smiling in a bit of a posed way and the photo is wide angle.
travelling to Barnsley to do a couple workshops at an SEND school about game design and careers with @intogames.bsky.social
canโt believe they made the place from Thank Goodess Youโre Here in real life!
this is popping off so uuhh hey guess what game has big fonts ->>> @denshattack.bsky.social
best time to plant a tree :))
you may already be aware of these thing! but thought Iโd share in case of showing up on other peopleโs timelines too
other resources too :))

and you can find games accessibility community @gaconf.bsky.social which is super welcoming if you have questions or want to learn more!
a diagram showing where to measure from on different letters
Font sizes arenโt consistent across type faces so you want to count the pixels between your ascenders and descenders yourself where you can!
Large text is considered around 38px high at 1080p
thereโs good info on this are other accessibility things at accessiblegames.com/accessibility-tags/ :))
and another thing
mine didnโt fit on one
Love this - seeing the positive reaction to our next fest demo has been SO humbling.
I mean I'm still a bag of nerves as we get closer to release, but hearing reactions like this makes me think we're doing something right ๐ฅน๐โฅ๏ธ

ran through the rain to catch region-locked farfetch'd on Go, won a draw Pokemon from memory contest at Ubisoft (of Meowth), and this year I visited 4 centres!
Child me dressed as Ash Ketchum in a silly black wig sewn onto a red cap and homemade jacket. I'm missing some teeth and smiling.
Adult me poses with a statue of Lugia at a Pokemon Centre, I'm doing a heart with my hands.
Happy Pokemon day!
My first ever video game was Blue version on a clear purple GBA and I fell in love ๐
I had imaginary battles in the yard, obsessed over Diamond on my pink DS, spent hours EV training on X with a teenage crush, dressed as Team Rocket for my first university comedy show...
I thought you'd enjoy it after learning you like Train Sim, glad you don't find it too punishing! The team put a lot of work into trying to strike that balance, and we'll also have more accessibility settings available later down the line too
Really awesome to hear you're enjoying Denshattack! ๐๐ค๐
low poly Xzibit
you didn't even like the post!
why no one ever talking about the Pimp My Ride video game for the PS2

I've still resisted verifying my age on anything / UK online safety acting, so if you've sent me a DM I'm not ignoring you i just can't see it ;__; I wish it at least told me WHO i was missing messages from
