Steam just added screen reader support in the latest Big Picture Mode beta. On the Deck. On SteamOS. On Linux.
Not hacked in. Not community-patched. Built-in. From Valve.
There's an accessibility tab. There's a screen reader. There's high-contrast mode, UI scaling, color filters, reduced motion, and more.
I can’t believe I’m saying this but: I need a Steam Deck now.
Accessibility isn’t just coming to gaming — it’s here, and it’s official.
Let’s make some noise so they keep going.

No joke! The #Commodore64 is officially back and for the first time in over 30 years, it’s being sold brand new again.

The #C64Ultimate BASIC Beige is a faithful modern recreation: FPGA-based motherboard, full support for original peripherals, including real disk drives, datasettes, CRTs, and even those old C64 cartridges.

It boots like the original, plays 10.000+ classic #games, and ships with a cassette-style USB packed with demos, music, and full games.

Starts shipping Oct–Nov 2025. Preorders open now.

This is wild. A handful of trolls are cosplaying ICE in the game Roblox. So all of these kids rose up against them.

“Roblox players protested within the game, battling cops, breaking down barricades, waving Mexican flags, and facing off across a line of players dressed in police SWAT gear.”

WOW!

Our studio's little educational game, "Cozy River Valley", about aquifer management in water-stressed farmlands, is a finalist in the "GEE!" Learning Game Awards!

We partnered with water management specialists and researchers to create a little farming sim, and reception to it has been very positive. It's gratifying to have the team's work be recognized like this.

With Shark Week approaching, we're teaming up with Shark Allies for every race this July - making it Shark Month! Starting Tuesday night at Atlanta, our #81 Chevy will be proudly sporting the Shark Allies branding on the track, and we'll be sharing shark-related content here on Mastodon.

Shark Allies is a non-profit originally established in 2007 in Hawaii, and advocates for the global protection of sharks through various campaigns and programs - from education to legislation. We are beyond grateful for their efforts, and proud to show our support for them.

To kick off Shark Month, we'll be donating $200 to Shark Allies. If you are able, please consider supporting their work by making a donation at https://sharkallies.org. We'll also donate an extra $1 for every follow and boost we get!

If you are not in a position to donate but would like to contribute to saving sharks (and other animals), the biggest thing you can do is to adopt a #PlantBased diet and #vegan lifestyle. Bycatch from the fishing industry is a major cause of shark decline, and overfishing in general leads to the collapse of fisheries and ecosystems that sharks need to survive. By removing animals from your diet and not purchasing products with ingredients derived from animals, you are reducing the demand for these harmful and exploitative systems.
