I figure an introduction might be in order! 👋🏽 Hey there, I'm Arman. Earlier in life I kicked cancer's ass, used to build tech at Google, and went on to make games.

Now I run a studio focused on accessibility! We're building a new way to find accessible games called @abletoplay.bsky.social 🧡

We recorded a new @konsolifin.net podcast episode with a dear friend, games industry legend and guest of honor @davidbfox.com, and always wonderful @nikender.bsky.social! 🫶

Didn’t have a functioning webcam so here’s my ✨hey hi hello✨ photo greeting to make that up!
Tarja wearing Garfield beanie and smiling at the camera. She wears glasses too, and there’s a text “hello” as a sticker in the image. On the walk behind here are a guitar, sword, Skyrim, DnD and Back to the Future posters.
David B Fox and Tarja in a Discord call. Tarja’s camera isn’t on. Niko is there too put the image clips so that we can’t see him.

In fact, we can often learn from disabled folks by understanding how they are engaging with a product. It’s one of the best ways to improve the design and make it more better for everyone.

Maybe I am biased; I’m just surprised folks aren’t mentioning accessibility when this meme comes up. /rant 😆😄♥️

Dorfromantik! Super elegant core design, charming aesthetic, accessible to play, and really replayable.

Oh yikes, well then I’m sorry you’re dealing with that! 🤯

Do you have “Spatial Audio” enabled? Based on BR signal direction, the newer AirPods will dampen the further ear. I find it incredibly disorienting and annoying.

On Mac it’s easy to disable from the top menu bar. On PC, it’s a Sound Playback setting.

I won friends!! 😭❤️ I was acknowledged as one of the games industry leading women with the Aurora Award at Pocket Gamer Connects Helsinki!

It’s hard to put in words how much it means to me being amongst these honorees.

Please signal boost, it's for a good cause! 🙏

Hey folks - I'm working with an MS (multiple sclerosis) charity to find streamers to support fundraising in November. It's retro gaming themed, so if you're interested in more info - or you know someone who would be amazing - please chuck me a reply 💚

Hey @jay.bsky.team - I am an early user, early enough that being one of the few posters you followed me...

I really appreciate the service and I think when crisis has happened before you have ended in a good place but...

these?

You aren't just replying to that one person, but everyone on here.

Wizards of the Coast is hosting a Twitch stream to support Trans Lifeline, a hotline and non-profit organization offering direct support to trans people in crisis – for the trans community, by the trans community.

Tune in to twitch.tv/magic on Oct 4th at 10am PT to play games with us and support!

Large bold text in the center reads: “Support Trans Lifeline.” Below, smaller text says “Tune in Oct 4” next to the Twitch logo.
