Abstract
The Easy Accessibility Package is a code package for Unity (a game engine bundled with game development software) that is meant to help video game developers quickly and easily make their games accessible to disabled gamers. The two main features I include in the project were remappable controls (changing which button performs which in-game action) and screen reader support (reading on screen text or game status aloud), both of which are vital to making games accessible.
