Accessibility

Saltbarrow Studio aims to meet WCAG 2.2 AA where applicable. The site and the games have not been independently audited.

Commitments

• Every interactive element is reachable by keyboard with a visible focus ring.
• Body text on cream backgrounds targets a high contrast ratio.
• The site honours prefers-reduced-motion; non-essential animation is disabled.
• Form-style controls are not used. There are no fields to fill in.
• The game canvas is keyboard-focusable, has an aria-label, and exposes status changes via an aria-live region.
• Lamplight has a pause control and a restart control. Difficulty ramps gently.
• Sound has an on/off toggle. The game is fully playable without sound.

Known limitations

• Lamplight relies on a rotating visual element. Some photosensitive players may find the sweeping beam uncomfortable. The reduced-motion toggle disables the beam wobble.
• Touch controls on the game use a horizontal drag. Players with limited fine motor control may find this slower than the keyboard.
• Typography relies on system stacks. Players who need a specific typeface should use a browser-level override.
• The studio does not yet have audio descriptions or full captions for in-game events.

How to report a barrier

A public accessibility feedback method is not currently available. This will be reviewed in a future release. In the meantime, the studio will continue to apply WCAG-aligned practices to new work.

Standards reference

The site follows the WCAG 2.2 guidelines where applicable, in particular the principles of Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust.
