Indie game interface with accessible UI elements designed for clarity within an open-world environment

Land of the Forgotten

An accessible UI system for an open-world indie game.

Land of the Forgotten is an open-world indie game project where the focus was on designing an accessible and immersive UI system. The interface was developed to support player navigation, orientation, and decision-making without disrupting the atmospheric tone of the game. Grounded in WCAG 2.2 principles and inclusive design practices, the project explores how accessibility can be seamlessly integrated into game UI to enhance both usability and player experience.
