Ugh. Odio utilizar la traducción automática, pero soy un desastre con las lenguas romances.

La primera imagen era un enlace a las herramientas para comparar colores y una explicación sobre la importancia de hacerlo. Como soy fotossensible, me resultó muy doloroso tener que subir la luminosidad del pantalla para ver el texto con claridad. Otros quizá tengan el mismo problema. Quizá sean daltónicos. Las gafas no pueden solucionar eso. Puede que se les escape algún detalle pese a tener una visión perfecta por estar con prisa. Yo lo sé porque utilicé una paleta de colores similar en uno de mis propios proyectos y esas fueron las quejas que recibí. Se trata de la accesibilidad.

Sin embargo, no dicté una solución exacta, ya que eso habría stifled la creatividad de Mushdev y no conocía la paleta de colores ni otras restricciones en ese momento. Por eso dejé la herramienta.

Ugh. I hate using AI translation, but I suck at romance languages.

The first image was a link to the tools to compare colors and an explanation to why it's important. I'm photo sensitive, so cranking up my screen brightness up so see the faint text was painful. Others might have the same problem. They might be color blind. Glasses can't fix those things. They may miss details despite having perfect vision due to being in a rush. I know these because I used a similar color palette on one of my own projects and these were the complaints I received. It's about accessibility.

However I didn't dictate an exact solution either since this that would stifle Mushdev's creativity and I didn't know of the color pallet or other restrictions at the time. That's why I left the tool.

I see, I thought it was more of an aesthetic thing than an accessibility issue. I’ll make some changes and you can let me know what you think. Regarding color blindness, the truth is I probably chose the worst palette possible. I’ve been testing it with a color blindness filter (Protan, the one that affects reds the most), and I think it’s distinguishable, but it’d be great if someone with color blindness could confirm. I’m definitely going to try to make it more accessible, but the overall look is already set. I’ll make it more comfortable, but I don’t plan on changing it too much since I want to use this color palette as a sort of signature style for this game and the ones to come.

(Update: I did some reading on the site and yeah, my color palette isn’t the best for accessibility. I looked for higher-contrast colors and made the fonts a bit thicker, not too much, and also increased the text size. I still want it to look nice as well as be functional, so I didn’t go too heavy on the changes. Hopefully, the experience is at least a bit better now.

Is true that it will affect his creativity, but I think he is trying to solve a problem that he does not suffer. That's harder than just art I think, I don't know maybe you see. I mean, I don't see the world the same as a colorblind person and I wouldn't know how to get the result. I would need someone's help with the problem.
