What it does

Checks whether your game's colors still work for players with color blindness. Load your palette and see it the way players with each common type of color blindness would, with pairs that become hard to tell apart flagged for you. Where it can, it suggests a replacement color that raises the contrast while keeping the hue, so your art direction survives, and it says so when no safe fix exists. You can save the results as an image or a printable report to share with your team.

Good to know

The color-blind views are simulations from a standard model, so they approximate rather than reproduce what any one player sees.
