@bburbank This is amazing! Are there any plans to work on accessibility? I never got a chance to play half-life as a kid, but I would love to as an adult!

@objectinspace it depends on the specifics wanted; it’s certainly more accessible than ever (with controller support and improved UI throughout) but it’s a very old game and some things are hard to change without breaking a bunch of other things.

@bburbank Gotcha. For context, I'm a blind player. I'd be looking for things like audio to know when I am aiming at someone, naration of the menus and in-game HUD, and some form of navigational assistence to point me in the right direction to progress. It sounds like that was not in scope though.
