What's New

Steamworks has a new accessibility-support questionnaire for developers to better describe the way their games support accessibility. If your game supports Accessibility features, you can now specify that information within Steamworks.

  • Gameplay options, like adjustable difficulty
  • Audio accessibility features, including custom volume controls and narrated game menus
  • Visual accessibility features, including adjustable text size and color alternatives
  • Input options, which include chat speech-to-text and text-to-speech

Later in the year (once we've given developers time to work on it from their end) we'll start sharing the resulting information with players in the Steam store and Steam desktop client.

Yeah, that's also an issue. It should be easier to get to the "advanced Store search". Most websites have some kind of "advanced search" or "more options" button or dropdown or something next to the search field. On Steam, none of that is accessible for the Store search until you've actually done a search, and then it's exposed with the results. So basically, put your cursor in the "search" field, whack enter, and you'll get a list of all Steam games in the Store along with all the options to do tag searches and whatnot in the right sidebar.
