Color Blind

Post by nahj »

Is it possible to suggest to game developers a change in colors? I'm color blind and have a difficult time time telling the different between the yellow and green play. Those colors look nearly identical. If it has to stay yellow and green, then different shades may help.

You are a premium user. You can change your preferences so that you’ll play specific colors, ones that you’ll always be able to differentiate.

That might help for the own color. But what if the opponents have yellow and green?

And if other people also have premium and their personal setting matches yours.

Either OP could use some kind of browser extension that changes colors on websites he visits, if possible(mobile for example would be difficult). Or they could add an option to change to monochrome colors or something in the likes.

You can add custom CSS in your user preferences, which can be found here:

For Can't Stop, the following code would change yellow to white, making it differentiable from green to those with deuteranopia, at least according to Color Oracle.

Code: Select all

.token_ffa500 {
filter:brightness(20);
}

a[style="color: #ffa500"] {
	color: #fff !important;
	background-color: #999;
}
See this thread below for screenshots, as well as similar code for Carcassonne
