Agenda

Accessibility’s growth as an established professional practice has continued at pace across the video games industry–from AAA studios to indie developers–but the past couple of years have brought difficult times, with teams operating under reduced headcounts and budgets. Even without these constraints, a studio’s journey towards accessibility maturity involves figuring out how to do more with less, moving beyond initial explorations and innovations to ensure it can be a repeatably efficient part of “business as usual.”

Wherever you are along that journey, our discussion will focus on ways to achieve this, from processes to programs, and champs to dev tools.

Hosted by the IGDA Game Accessibility SIG, this roundtable is appropriate for all levels (students to experienced developers).

Takeaway

Attendees will gain an understanding of the current state of accessibility in the games industry, learn about and contribute to ways in which it can be approached in a scaleable and repeatable manner, and find like-minded contacts to collaborate with.
