Date & Time: 10am - 11am; October 16, 2020


Description: Are you game developer new to gaming accessibility? Are you a parent of a gamer with disabilities and want to learn what makes a game accessible? Are you a gamer who wants to learn what some games are doing to increase accessibility? This webinar will teach the three foundational accessibility pieces each game should feature. After building that foundation, we’ll explore how games can go further to make their game as accessible as possible. Then, we’ll discuss advocacy and how this knowledge can be used to promote gaming accessibility for all.

Gaming With Motor Disabilities: How Accessibility Adds Inclusive And Therapeutic Values


Hosted by: Special Guest Antonio Martinez


Date & Time: 10am - 11am; October 23, 2020


Host Bio: Based in Spain, Antonio Martinez is a disabled gamer with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type-3. Games always were a big part of his life since he was a kid. Growing up he studied computer programming and English at the local university. It is as an accessibility advocate in gaming that he feels he can help others to enjoy life a bit more. He founded his own review site and works with a team of collaborators from other aspects of disability to spread awareness.

Description: Many people with motor disabilities find gaming is not accessible for them. Despite the barriers, there are ways for people to take part in this activity that transcends pure entertainment. This talk will explore the benefits for body and mind, the socialization and inclusion opportunities, and explain how game mechanics and assistive tools can support people to achieve this goal.
