Another fun article up on GameInformer.com with accessibility in mind! Read on to learn about how VTree Inc. is working to bring football back to gamers with a variety of disabilities.

Games that cater to accessibility have it rough. Developers and publishers naturally worry that such projects aren’t financially viable, and thus are reluctant to take risks on them.
