SpecialEffect launches DevKit

Charity’s resource tool aims to assist game developers to create titles that are more accessible to people with disabilities

Today SpecialEffect launched its online resource tool SpecialEffect DevKit, which it released the with the intent to help game development be more accessible for disabled people.

The UK-based charity’s kit covers topics such as control sensitivity, automatic actions, and the use of multiple input devices.

SpecialEffect was founded in 2007 to assist people with physical challenges to play games, rehabilitate, and help titles become more inclusive.

“Our in-person assessments have given us an invaluable insight into the kinds of accessibility features that could make a literally game-changing difference to the gamers we help,” said SpecialEffect founder and CEO Dr. Mick Donegan.

“The SpecialEffect DevKit breaks these improvements down into detail, explains why they might be useful for some players, and shows developers examples of how they might create and implement them into their own games.”

Is the defeat of Real Madrid Shurev the Moldovan team?

摩爾多瓦聯賽班霸舒列夫(FC Sheriff Tiraspol)今屆首度在歐冠小組賽登場,即作客擊敗皇家馬德里。舒列夫於 1997 年創會,但已曾 19 次榮膺摩爾多瓦頂級聯賽冠軍。不過,舒列夫主場所在的城市提拉斯堡(Tiraspol),其實並不由摩爾多瓦政府管治。 今天的摩爾多瓦共和國,是由原蘇聯加盟共和國之一的「摩爾多瓦蘇維埃社會主義共和國」在蘇聯分裂時出現的。十九世紀初,奧斯曼帝國將 Bessarabia 割讓予沙俄。Bessarabia 的大部分地區,正在今天摩爾多瓦境內。到一次大戰末期,在德國支持下,Bessarabia 成為羅馬尼亞的一部分。值得留意的是,Bessarabia 的主體民族所操的語言,與羅馬尼亞語幾無分別。直到今天,摩爾多瓦語是否可/應被看作成羅馬尼亞語,仍是一個高度政治敏感的議題。 到 1924 年,蘇聯在烏克蘭境內建立了「摩爾多瓦自治蘇維埃社會主義共和國」。蘇聯此舉的其中一個目的,是要爭取摩爾多瓦人的支持。不過,這個摩爾多瓦蘇維埃社會主義共和國,雖然有大量摩爾多瓦族人聚居,但他們卻難被界定是該地的主體民族。 1939 年,斯大林政府和希特勒政府簽下密約,納粹德國承認 Bessarabia 是蘇聯的勢力範圍。翌年,蘇聯就要求羅馬尼亞政府放棄 Bessarabia。於是 1940 年 8 月,Bessarabia 大部分地區就跟原摩爾多瓦自治蘇維埃社會主義共和國的部分地區合成為一個新的加盟共和國:摩爾多瓦蘇維埃社會主義共和國。 上世紀八十年代末,蘇聯各地分離主義和民族主義高漲時期,摩爾多瓦民族主義也沒有缺席。而由於摩爾多瓦西部(主要是原摩多瓦自治蘇維埃社會主義共和國的部分)與烏克蘭接壤的地區有大量的非摩爾多瓦族人,西部部分地區亦有人武裝起來與摩爾多瓦民族主義抗衡。經歷過短暫的軍事衝突後,脫離蘇聯獨立的摩爾多亞共和國一直無法控制西部分地區。而該地區則成立了「德涅斯特河沿岸摩爾達維亞共和國」(英語世界通稱 Transnistria),並定都提拉斯堡。這個政治實體有自己的憲法、貨幣和軍隊,但沒有任何一個聯合國成員承認其獨立地位。Transnistria 亦被國際社會看成是摩爾多瓦的一部分。 該地的人口僅有四十多萬,當中近三成是摩爾多瓦族。而俄羅斯族和烏克蘭族的總和超過總人口一半。因此,三族的語言都是官方語言。而在摩爾多瓦的實際控制範圍,僅有摩爾多亞/羅馬尼亞文有官方語言資格。 原刊於運動公社 Facebook
