Conor Bradley's love affair with games started in his childhood when he sought a release from depression.
A Belfast husband and wife duo are heading to the “Glastonbury for games” this week to showcase their new point-and-click release, which is accessible to those with disabilities.
Conor, who works from his East Belfast home, also hosts workshops across the UK to raise awareness and make the future of games accessible. “From the beginning, game accessibility has been our main goal. A lot of this work has been embedded into the experience itself, such as the readability of each dialogue line, the design of our puzzles and how we lay out information and our menus,” Conor said.“Over the years we’ve seen it being used more although ours remains more interactive. People see that we’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible,” he said.“Games are often seen as a form of entertainment but for me it was a life saver.
“They came to Belfast and filmed an interview with myself and Clare,” he revealed. “It showcased the game and raised awareness of the extensive role developers can play in making gaming more accessible. “The video games industry represents an incredible opportunity for Northern Ireland, an established international location for developers and publishers and for large scale digital content productions. There is a symbiotic relationship between games and innovation.
