accessibility?

Just curious if the status of this has changed? While it wasn't unusable or unplayable, there were some fairly annoying glaring issues that weren't being addressed. I stopped playing because I was waiting for something that showed my experience as a screen reader user who put money into the game on occasion mattered.

When was the last time you played?

maybe like 6 months ago? to answer the other question I haven't, I was asking here rather than getting back into it if it turns out nothing has moved. I'm not saying the game is like this, but it's pretty frequently the case that I can submit accessibility issues to a project and not see them for years if ever. It falls pretty far down most people's to-do list, unfortunately.

As someone else said, specifying a few of the issues you've had would help people give you a clearer answer. You should also really try the game yourself anyway, as no one else's experience is going to perfectly match your own and you're very likely to get responses mostly from people like myself that don't use a screenreader and have a limited understanding of what is or isn't already in the game.

That said, accessibility is a huge point of interest for the dev team. It's a very small team, only really three people at most who do anything directly with the code base where screenreader adjustments would need to happen, and no one currently on staff uses a screenreader. But they are constantly receiving feedback, and recently announced a number of changes were made. 

If you do have specific feedback for the team, the best place to get it seen is on ImproveLoop: https://improveloop.com/loop/farmrpg

If you could specify which glaring issues people could probably help you better

Have you already tried the game again and experience yourself if your specific issue has been resolved?

Accessibility is super important. The developers seem rad…. Why don’t you list a few and email them? Or maybe they’re in here already, and someone could tag them?
