Oof. This is a hard read. Strength to folks at AbleGamers dealing with this coming to light & who's been dealing with it in the dark.

Re-sharing again with updates from Ablegamers and Barlet. As noted in the story, I reached out to both parties multiple times for comment. Barlet's on-the-record response was included in my initial story, but I declined to accept info contingent on being off-the-record.

To those in the accessibility space feeling demoralised about the AbleGamers news, please know that what this space needs is MORE kind-hearted people.

If that's you, we'd love you to stick around 💕

man, they're not even masking at the AbleGamers PAX booth. I don't think I'll ever go to a con again.

Sadly my last day at AbleGamers will be Dec 4th. They're going through some kind of reorg and most of the team is moving on.

I'll still continue some work at www.thecontrollerproject.com utilizing volunteers around the world to #3dprint items to help disabled gamers.

Hard read as someone who knew a lot of people that worked there. Please remember that even if leadership did bad, there are/were many people at Ablegamers who genuinely did good things for accessibility over the years despite the mismanagement and they are gonna catch strays from all this.
