Visual sound cues
Visual alerts for important sounds such as footsteps, gunfire and warnings, where reliable detection is possible.
Equal opportunity starts here
Same game.Same challenge.Equal access.
Gaming should not depend on what you can hear, see or communicate. EqualSpawn is building accessibility tools to help disabled gamers play more independently.
Designed with disabled gamers. Built for fair access, not shortcuts.

Nothing about us, without us.
Disabled people must be included in decisions about accessibility features that affect them. Our community helps shape what we build.
What we're buildingMore ways to play.
More ways to play.
Fewer barriers.
EqualSpawn is a developing accessibility platform. These are our planned tools — we will not claim a feature works until it has been tested.
Raid accessibility
Make music, sound patterns and timed cues easier to follow without needing to hear them.
Team callouts
Send and receive visual symbols and quick instructions without depending on spoken callouts.
Captions and text
Explore captions for permitted voice communication and clearer on-screen information.
Flexible displays
Choose a separate PC window, an allowed overlay or a phone mounted above your screen.
Your accessibility ideas
Report barriers in games we've never played or games that haven't even been released yet.
Our reason for existingWe want access.
We want access.
Not an advantage.
EqualSpawn began with a simple problem: some games ask you to hear a sound to know what to do next. For a Deaf gamer, that can mean relying on someone else instead of making your own decisions.
We're starting with gaming sound cues, but our mission goes further: helping disabled players take part in more of the games and activities they love.
- ✓ Equal information, not extra information
- ✓ Built and tested with disabled gamers
- ✓ Respect for publishers, fair play and anti-cheat rules
- ✓ Clear, honest updates about what our software can do
“We don't want the game to be easier. We want the same opportunity to play it.”

Found a barrier?
Tell us about it.
Maybe a game needs you to hear music, understand a symbol or react to a spoken instruction. Tell us what makes a game difficult to access — including barriers we haven't thought of yet.

What happens to a request?
01
Listen
Understand the exact barrier from the gamer experiencing it.
02
Explore
Check what technology might help, and which game rules apply.
03
Build and test
Work with disabled gamers to check whether the solution really helps.
04
Share progress
Keep the community informed about what's possible, planned or unsupported.
A public submission system, voting and request tracking will be added in a later version, with privacy and moderation controls.
Communication is accessibility
Guides in British Sign Language.
Our founder plans to create video guides in BSL. We also plan to include clear written English, captions and simple step-by-step instructions.
Because an accessibility tool should be accessible to learn, too.
See our plansBSL guides are coming
Your language. Your way.
Original BSL tutorials will appear here once filmed, captioned and reviewed.
Our long-term goalOne million gamers.
One million gamers.
More equal access.
We don't want to count downloads and call that success. We want to hear about real barriers removed: the raid completed, the instruction understood and the game mode played independently.
We'll only count outcomes we can verify through voluntary feedback, with privacy respected.

Building EqualSpawn
A clear path forward.
We're starting with a realistic first test. Every step will be reviewed for accessibility, reliability and publisher compliance.
Foundation
Brand, website, community research and accessible design.
Starting nowWindows prototype
Silent digital-audio research and a visual interface, starting with Fallout 4.
In researchReal testing
Test with Deaf gamers. Check usefulness, accuracy and independent play.
PlannedBroader access
Mobile displays, more games, approved integrations and community features.
FutureAll game integrations will follow publisher rules. There is no public EqualSpawn download yet, and no game is currently advertised as fully supported.
Questions and answersGood questions.
Good questions.
Clear answers.
Is EqualSpawn available to download?
Not yet. EqualSpawn is in early development. We will share verified updates here when software is ready to test.
Does it make games easier?
No. Our aim is to help disabled gamers access information that other players already receive, not reveal extra information or complete a task for them.
Will EqualSpawn work with all games?
That's our long-term ambition, but no single approach works everywhere. Compatibility will depend on each game, the platform and publisher permissions.
Will it work if I play with no sound?
That is a core design goal. Some methods may use digital audio produced by a game while nothing is played through speakers. We still need to test the technology.
Do you follow anti-cheat and publisher rules?
Yes. We will not bypass anti-cheat protections. We will ask publishers for permission where needed and be clear about compatible games.
How can I suggest an accessibility feature?
