Is this the future of accessible gaming? 👀 Well, it did make me cry 😅 Last month I travelled to Ireland to test @ByoWave Proteus Controller Kit! And all I can say is; wow! Take a look at my first impression of the kit here; youtu.be/9VayW4qXMis

Had an awesome reunion at #PAXWest2023! At Pax East 2022 we met the team from @AbleGamers and we got their thoughts on our early Proteus Controller prototypes. We bumped into them again, and Vincent Santore was rocking the Proteus Controller T-shirt we gave him last year!🎮

Using the Proteus Controller with Co-pilot to the Xbox Adaptive Controller! The required buttons in one hand, and a large joystick in the other. #gamescom2023 #gamescom #accessibility – at Cologne, Germany

The past few weeks we’ve been inundated with messages about the new baths out in #DunLaoghaire and the fact the ramps out there are mountainous. Sean is a local so we made a couple of videos yesterday, now tell us this public place is inclusive and accessible, go on tell us.🤯

Thanks @AnneRabbitte for joining us at our offices in the @GMITihubs to learn more about the Proteus Controller and to listen to 2 of our beneficiaries Leo and Rian about the way they play! It is so important for #disabledGamers to have a say in the way they play! #a11y

Bittersweet announcement but after an amazing 2 years as an infectious disease expert I am moving on. I am now an expert in no-fly zones and Eastern European affairs. Excited to make the most of this new opportunity.

My #RareDisease is Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. I probably have a couple others but I can't keep up 🙊 Because of my CRPS I play games with one hand ✋🎮
Let us know if you have any rare diseases, and how they affect your #gaming?

Today is #RareDiseaseDay! Many people with rare diseases can struggle to use video game controllers. Here are some (out of many!) #rarediseases that can cause issues playing games and some Proteus Controller configurations that may make it easier to play your way!
