Stickman is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards to ensure we provide equal access to all of our users.
Our Commitment
We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user-friendly for everyone.
Measures We've Taken
- Semantic HTML: Our website uses proper HTML5 semantic elements for clear document structure, making it easier for screen readers to navigate.
- Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements on the website can be accessed using a keyboard alone. We ensure visible focus indicators are present.
- Color Contrast: We maintain sufficient color contrast ratios between text and backgrounds to ensure readability for users with visual impairments.
- Alt Text: Images used throughout the site include descriptive alternative text for screen reader users.
- Responsive Design: The website adapts to different screen sizes and zoom levels, accommodating users who need to enlarge content.
- Clear Language: We use plain, clear language throughout the website to make content accessible to people with cognitive disabilities.
- Consistent Navigation: Navigation patterns are consistent across all pages, reducing cognitive load.
Game Accessibility
We recognize that the game component of Stickman presents additional accessibility challenges due to its visual and interactive nature. We are working on the following improvements:
- High-contrast mode for the game interface
- Keyboard-only controls
- Screen reader announcements for game events
- Optional sound effects to provide audio feedback
- Adjustable animation speeds
Known Limitations
While we strive for full accessibility, there are some known limitations:
- The game requires visual perception and interaction, which may present challenges for users with certain visual or cognitive disabilities.
- Drag-and-drop or similar interactive controls may be difficult for some users with motor impairments. We are exploring alternative interaction patterns.
- Some third-party content (such as advertisements) may not meet our accessibility standards.
